The urge to explore new places will never let you jus stick to one place.

Hi. I'm planning a trip to the northern areas but I'm confused about whether I should visit Hunza only, Skardu only, or both together. I'll be traveling from Karachi, so I have around 12 days in total (8 days from Islamabad).

I've shortlisted Travel With Smile and 0KM Tour Planners. 0KM offers both a Hunza and Naltar package and a Mega Trip covering Hunza and Skardu. I also found this Travel With Smile itinerary that covers both Hunza and Skardu in 8 days from Islamabad.

For those who've been there, does this 8-day itinerary look reasonable, or will it be too rushed? What would you recommend?

I seriously need... a break...

Looking for recommendations for a 7-day trip from Karachi with a group of 3–5 friends. Budget is roughly PKR 60–70k per person (including transport, accommodation, food, and sightseeing).

We're after experiences, not luxury:

​

​

​

- Beautiful landscapes

​

- Road trips

​

- Hiking/viewpoints

​

- Lakes, rivers, forests, mountain streams

​

- Local food

​

- Places where we can keep exploring instead of sitting in one hotel all day

​

​

​

We're leaning toward train or public transport, since renting a car + fuel is getting ridiculously expensive.

Drop your best itineraries, hidden gems, or routes. I genuinely need some travel therapy before Karachi finishes me off 😭

Planning a 2-night, 3-day family trip to Swat next week from Islamabad/Rawalpindi.

We'll be traveling in a Toyota Passo with a 3-year-old, so we're looking for a relaxed, budget-friendly itinerary with good roads, minimal hiking/jeep travel, and family-friendly attractions.

Would you recommend staying in Bahrain, Kalam, Malam Jabba, or a combination? What itinerary would you suggest?
