FAQs: Everything you need to know
Planning your dream adventure should be exciting—not confusing! Here are answers to the most common questions we get. If you need more info, feel free to reach out.
Is Pakistan safe to travel to?
In recent years, Pakistan has made noticeable progress in boosting tourism and improving internal security, particularly in areas popular with travellers.
Cities like Lahore, Islamabad, and Karachi have become more accessible, while northern destinations such as Hunza Valley, Skardu, and along the Karakoram Highway continue to welcome more tourists every year.
We’ve been running group tours in Pakistan for four years now, and guests have constantly commented on how safe they have felt.
Do I need a visa to visit Pakistan?
Tourists from 126 countries can now obtain a visa prior to arrival, valid for 90 days, at no cost. You can check this list of eligible countries via Pakistan’s official visa site.
The visa can be processed within 24-48 hours, but we advise not leaving it to the last minute. The new handy app makes applying for your Pakistan visa so much easier than before. All you’ll need is your passport and a photograph.
As with everything involving the trip, we’re on hand to help with the visa process.
What should I wear in Pakistan as a solo female traveller?
Pakistan is a Muslim country, so you will be required to dress conservatively. This means having your knees and shoulders covered. If you enter a mosque, your hair also needs to be covered. Check out our Ultimate Packing List for Pakistan which goes into more detail.
What language do people speak in Pakistan?
Urdu is the national language, and English is widely understood, especially in tourist areas. Local languages like Punjabi, Pashto, and Balti are spoken in different regions of Pakistan.
What currency does Pakistan use, and can I use cards?
Pakistani Rupee (PKR) is the official currency.
Debit and credit cards are accepted in many places in the bigger cities, but outside of these, you’ll be largely reliant on cash.
It’s important to make sure you have enough cash on you as money exchanges can be hard to find in the Northern regions, and only certain ATMs accept foreign cards (Standard Charter and Bank Alfalah).
What kind of food can I expect in Pakistan?
Pakistan has rich, flavorful cuisine, think curries, grilled meats, fresh breads, and sweets. Northern areas also have unique local dishes like yak meat and apricot-based specialities.
Is it easy to get around Pakistan?
Travel can be challenging in the north due to limited transport, which is why guided trips are the easiest way to navigate logistics safely and efficiently.
What makes Pakistan worth visiting?
Its epic mountain ranges, stunning landscapes, rich culture, friendly locals, and authentic, off-the-beaten-path experiences make it a unique and rewarding destination. It's a place that will steal your heart and keep drawing you back!
