12 hours ago New One of the best tourist experiences of my life. Will highly recommend Crossroads adventure for discovering Pakistan’s northern gems. Our tour was well planned and executed from travel, boarding and lodging. Our guide Hassan was patient, warm, friendly and kind. We explored many attractions in Gilgit-Baltistan. We did not have to worry about anything as our trip was carefully planned and comprehensive. It was a new terrain for us and our tour was comprehensive, well organized and executed from start to finish. We were guided at each step and enjoyed our trip worry free knowing that our professional team had taken care of everything. In addition, whenever some changes were mandated they were accommodated promptly and smoothly. Can’t wait to return for the next Pakistani adventure with our fabulous new friends at Crossroads.Show more

This was my first visit to Pakistan. Friends told me to expect amazing sights and views, excellent food, and friendly people. Crossroads Adventure delivered all of these, and more, during our tour of Gilgit-Baltistan. The sights included historical landmarks, the border crossing at Khunjerab Pass, and the unexpected bonus of ubiquitous brightly decorated trucks, covered in elaborate floral patterns and calligraphy. The views of the snow-capped Karakoram, Himalayas and Hindu Kush mountain ranges were visible all around us, everyday. We also saw stunning rivers, lakes, and glaciers. Be forewarned. The delicious rotis, stuffed parathas, biryanis, karahis, tikkas and mantus are hard to resist. Everyone we encountered on our travels were welcoming and friendly. Not least our guides Sultan and Nawaz, who made us feel welcome from the moment we met them at Islamabad airport, and who opened their homes to us for meals with their families. They were happy to answer our questions and eager to educate us about the region. We learned about nomadic gold and gemstone miners, the autonomous, self-governing nature of Gilgit-Baltistan, and the significant work being done by the Aga Khan Foundation in the areas of rural development, education, health and climate resilience. To fully enjoy and appreciate all that Crossroads Adventure includes in their itinerary, a moderate level of physical fitness helps. There are steep climbs to some of the forts, lakes and glaciers. The views at the end of the hikes are well worth the effort. I think there is only one feedback question a service provider need ask its clients: Would you recommend our service to friends and family? For Crossroads Adventure, my answer is an unequivocal and unqualified “Yes."Show more

In June of this year, along with five other friends, I joined the tour “Pakistan Panorama” knowing I would have a rare look into a region few of us are fortunate enough to explore. But nothing prepared me for the majesty of the scenery, the challenge of driving precipitous mountain roads in the Hunza Valley and, above all, the warm hospitality of the people. Our tour was small and personal. Our local driver-guides made us feel like family friends, not travellers from Australia. Through them we learned about their country on a personal level and through them were prvileged to visit the homes of local mountain families - an experience never to be forgotten. North-Eastern Pakistan is awe-inspiring in its scenery, complex in its history, warm and colourful in its people. Our two weeks there were magic. Penelope Wise, Sydney Australia.Show more
