Lahore & Hunza Tour

Overview

This is the trip that shows Pakistan’s astonishing range: the Mughal splendour of Lahore, then the soaring Karakoram at Hunza — one of the world’s most beautiful mountain valleys, framed by peaks like Rakaposhi and Ladyfinger, with the historic Baltit and Altit Forts, the turquoise Attabad Lake and famously long-lived, hospitable communities.

We start in Lahore, then head north to Hunza (flying to Gilgit or driving the Karakoram Highway from Islamabad, conditions permitting). It’s seasonal — roughly spring to autumn — and priced on request around routing, season and duration.

Good to know

• Seasonal: roughly April–October; winters restrict access.
• Mountain flights to Gilgit are weather-dependent — we always plan a road contingency.
• Higher altitude and long mountain drives — a reasonable fitness level helps.
• One of the most rewarding trips in Asia when it comes together.

Before you go

What to bring

• Comfortable walking shoes for uneven old-city ground
• Sun protection in summer (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) or warm layers in winter
• A refillable water bottle
• Modest clothing for mosques and shrines
• Some cash for snacks, tips and small purchases
• Your camera or phone, and any personal medication
• An overnight bag and your passport/ID for intercity travel

Dress & etiquette

Modest dress (shoulders and knees covered) is best; women need a headscarf inside mosque and gurdwara prayer halls (our guides carry spares) and shoes come off at religious sites. Please ask before photographing people. See what to wear and mosque etiquette.
