• Pros
  • Extraordinary trekking and hiking possibilities, in breathtakingly beautiful mountains, still not too busy with tourists.
  • For art enthusiasts, exploring the remains of the ancient civilisations of the Indus, the Gandhara kingdom and the Moghol empires will be a delight.
  • Wild and captivating landscapes are a wonderful opportunity for adventure and thrill seekers.
• Cons
  • The unstable political situation and the inter-ethnic conflicts in cities, the insecurity in the tribal zones in the north-west and in Baluchistan.
  • Religious fundamentalism - the source of many interdicts, is incredibly hypocritical. Although it is prohibited to consume alcohol, hard drug consumption has devastating effects. Pakistan, "land of the pure", certainly isn't known for its relaxed morals.
  • High prices for the flights as well as for package holidays or even for organized treks. You will only find rudimentary comfort.
