Hunza, Skardu, Swat & Naran Trips from Islamabad and Rawalpindi

Live in Islamabad or Rawalpindi? You can join any of our regular group tours to the northern areas of Pakistan. Our group trips leave Lahore at night and pick up Islamabad travellers on the way, so you join the same trip with less time on the road. Choose a 5-day Hunza tour, a 3-day Naran or Swat trip, or a family holiday in Neelum Valley, and our team plans everything: transport, hotels or camping, meals and a tour operator who travels with the group.

The Islamabad pick-up point is the Daewoo Terminal near EME College (NUST), and we share the exact pick-up time before departure. If your whole group is from Islamabad or Rawalpindi, we can also pick you up from your own location. Just tell us when you book on WhatsApp.
