Travel Advice on Pakistan
Security & safety has always been questioned and people have always had wrong ideas
about the situation in Pakistan. We do believe and wish to assure all tourist in Pakistan
of the following things.
Currently Pakistan is dealing with the several challenges. Specially in the
North western region the new renamed province "Pakhtoon Khwah" and the Punjab
province, the conditions are a bit crazy we shall say here are the places
foreigners should avoid going.
Waziristan we never used to take tours there any way.
The Khyber pass
this used be a highlight but unfortunately we cant do this tour at the moment.
Dir & Chitral although with the Lowari tunnel opening Chitral is more
accessible
but Dir area is still sensitive and one should avoid going there.
In
Punjab places below Lahore require a mandatory police escort and if you are
taking one of our
south Pakistan tours we already organize it for you.
Swat valley
is now open to tourists however we do offer special escort and security for Swat
valley.
Balochistan is still as it was 30 years ago except for the road from Taftan
(Iran Border) to Quetta the Bolan pass and Ziarat, for rest of Balochistan
tourist require special permission to visit which needs 2 months process.
For the rest of Pakistan which Include :
Karachi
Thatta
Hyderabad
Sukkur
Moen Jo Daro
Lahore
Islamabad, Taxila
Peshawar
Besham
Karakorum highway
Gilgit
Hunza and the
Skardu all
these places are safe
1. There is no threat to lives or goods of any foreign tourist in any area of Pakistan.
There are no purse snatchers , nor there are any kind of hatreds or dis-likeness to
foreign tourist in Pakistan.
2. Pakistan being a Muslim country has a liberal atmosphere for women. Women are free to
go out in bazaars, mosques or any where they want but as it is norm of the Muslim society, we do recommend modest
dress for both Men & Women. A t-shirt with full pants or Long Skirt is fine. T shirt
with half sleeves is also OK.
3. There had been some troubles lately in the country but all that is in a part of
Pakistan where there is no interest of tourist nor some one ever needs to go or pass bye.
Secondly Government is taking very strict measures to cut this problem.
4. The Interior of Sindh is culturally a very rich province and has no problems as such .
When you are there in Moen Jo Daro or any other place you are well taken care of by the
friendly locals and our staff.
5. Khyber pass & other tribal areas have a system of tribal jury and sometimes there
are clashes among the tribes but they can not be witnessed on the main road where Tourist
travel. Yet we provide proper security guards for the tours in these tribal areas.
6. The Mountainous areas of Hunza, Gilgit, Chitral, Swat, Karakorum Highway
& Skardu are very safe and there is no violence or
ant major trouble in these areas. Tourism is main source of income in these
areas and people want more and more tourists.
