5+ years group traveling

Pakistan is one of those countries that will shatter all your stereotypes. Full of History, unique ethnic diversity, stunning Himalayan outdoors, warm hospitality and streets full of stories: from snake charming doctors to fire haircuts! May is the perfect time to visit the Karakorum with longer and warmer days, and, as always, with the most fun travel family out there! Please note that we are offering also an optional  ADD-ON for two days to Peshwar (May 26th - 28th 2025). We will provide further information once you book the Expedition.

Itinerary

Day 0: Starting City: Lahore, Pakistan,

  • In Wander Expeditions we want you to make the most of your time, thats why we ask you to arrive the day before, so that the Day 1 in your Expedition is really a full day. We recommend arriving in Lahore on May 18th, the day before the expedition begins.

Day 1: Lahore

  • We start our day visiting the eclectic and culturally rich city of Lahore. From it’s monuments: Badshahi Mosque, Lahore Fort, Wazir Khan Mosque to it’s streets full of stories. In the afternoon, we’ll visit the famous Wagah Border for it’s flag ceremony.
  • Overnight in Lahore

Day 2: Lahore

  • We’ll explore the street doctors, snake enchanters, and of course, the infamous fire hairdressers. In the evening, we’ll travel from Lahore to Islamabad.
  • Overnight in Islamabad.

Day 3: Fairy Meadows

  • Early in the morning we’ll be flying to Gilgit or Skardu, in the Himalayan Karakorum. After arriving in Gilgit we will head straight to Fairy Meadows. We’ll need to take 4WD through a gnarly road to get there, and then hike for around 3h. In Fairy Meadows, we’ll already have a view of the gorgeous Nanga Parbat, towering over 8125m.
  • Overnight in Fairy Meadows.

Day 4: Nanga Parbat Base Camp

  • We’ll wake up for sunrise and hike to the Base Camp of Nanga Parbat for closer views of this 8000m peak. Certainly, one of the highlights of our Expedition. After this incredible experience, we’ll journey to the stunning Hunza Valley, where our journey continues.
  • Overnight in Hunza.

Day 5: Hunza Valley

  • After breakfast we’ll visit Baltit and Altit Fort (over 950 years old). We’ll mesmerize with the best views of Hunza Valley in Eagles Nest. After visiting we’ll have free time to visit Hunza’s market for some shopping or aimless exploration.
  • Overnight in Hunza.

Day 6: Hoper Glacier, Hussaini Suspension Bridge and Atabad Lake

  • After breakfast we drive to Passu Glacier and the famous Hussaini hanging bridge. The dangling view of the Himalayan riverbed below your feet is a scary experience you’ll hardly forget! We’ll head towards Hoper Valley in Nagar District, stopping at various picturesque spots along the way to the magnificent Hoper Glacier. From there, we’ll head to Atabad Lake and drive back to Gilgit or Skardu.
  • Overnight in Gilgit or Skardu based on the prevailing weather conditions.

Day 7: Fly to Islamabad

  • We depart for Islamabad by domestic Flight. After landing we will be visiting Faisal Mosque and then go to Margalla Hills for lunch at the Hill top restaurant, an excellent place to feast with music and enjoy the view.
  • Overnight in Islamabad

Day 8: Departure

  • It's the saddest moment of any expedition: saying goodbye!
  • Alternatively, you can choose to continue with our optional ADD-ON for two days to Peshawar (May 24th -26 th, 2025). We will provide further information once you book the expedition.

The best way to see not only the Mt Hagen festival but also the highlights of the PNG highlands. Safe, exciting, and lots of fun.

·Indian Himalayas & Bhutan·about 1 month ago

A spiritual and cultural-focussed expedition, not the typical style of other Wander trips, but I absolutely loved it. Bhutan is beautiful and this expedition was the best way to see it, the tricky visa and tour guide requirements were all handled and the itinerary gave the very best of the country in a few days. Northern India was equally serene and even as someone who hates hiking, having a great group to champion you along the way made it fun.

·West Africa III·about 1 month ago

The best overland adventure you could ever ask for. Two weeks, 22 people, 6 cars, endless laughs. Sure, the days are long, and you definitely need to bring snacks, but it’s so much fun and the best way to see the parts of Africa that most people don’t go to! And it has everything - beach, nature, pool days, local communities, cities and middle-of-nowhere adventures. I’d even go as far as to say I’d do it again….. never say never!
