Lahore to Karachi Heritage Route

Overview

For travellers with time, this is one of the great journeys of South Asia: an overland heritage route from Lahore to Karachi, tracing the Indus through the length of Pakistan. It threads Mughal Punjab, the Sufi shrines of Multan, the Indus Valley sites, the living heritage of Sindh (Sukkur, the shrines of Sehwan and beyond) and, ultimately, the coastal megacity of Karachi and the Arabian Sea.

It’s a demanding but deeply rewarding trip that reveals Pakistan’s full historical sweep. We structure it with a mix of private driving and strategic flights, comfortable hotels and expert guiding throughout. Priced on request around duration, comfort level and included sites.

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.
