What people love about touring Pakistan solo
- Hunza Valley Explorer – Karakoram Mountains Cultural Journey
Thank you so much "Beyond the Valley" for an unforgettable experience! North Pakistan is too beautiful and everyone is friendly and approachable. Our accommodation had a great view as well. Their guide, chef, and portal are so much experienced and professional.
- Explore Hunza Valley
Exploring the Hunza Valley in November 2023 was a captivating experience. Despite the chilly weather, the breathtaking landscape of towering mountains, vibrant autumn colors, and crystal-clear rivers made every moment enchanting. The warmth of the local hospitality added an extra layer of charm to the journey. However, it's essential to prepare for colder temperatures and occasional rain. Overall, Hunza Valley in November is a photographer's paradise and a soul-soothing retreat for nature enthusiasts.
Pakistan has always been on my desired destinations list and it didn't disappoint. Exploria and Ajmal assisted me in giving the best experience one can have. Communication was quick. Ajmal made changes in my itinerary at the last minute to Fairy Meadows and Nanga Parba treks. I loved the scenery, the opportunity to trek to glaciers and Ang’s Patbat but mostly, I found the people so kind, hospitable and friendly, Exploria provided excellent guides/drivers. Special mention to Ahmed Jan.
