    Planned my second personal trip to Skardu for a week with Discovering Pakistan. From planning stage till actual travel days - the support and response has been phenomenal. I would highly recommend to anyone planning group or personal tour to any part of Pakistan to try them; they wont disappoint.

    Long story short: the trip was so amazing, I recommended the itinerary to all my friends and colleagues as soon as I returned. Discovering Pakistan was very helpful throughout the trip, including visa application and packing for winter. Our dedicated tour guides in Skardu, Farhan and Gulfam, went out of their way to make sure we not only see the most breathtaking sights--from snowy mountain peaks, frozen waterfalls, cold deserts to ancient castle ruins and forts—but also have the best food, souvenirs, and pictures to cherish in our memories. It was truly an experience of a lifetime. Another memorable point is how friendly and genuine the locals were. Everywhere we went in Islamabad, Skardu, and Lahore, people were curious in getting to know us. Unlike some other touristic destinations where many locals would try to sell us things (in my experience), in Pakistan it felt like the people were genuinely trying to get us immersed in the culture without demanding anything in return. I was really touched by the kindness shown to me and my friend traveling there and I wish more people could see this side of Pakistan. That said, I do want to caveat that this itinerary has a lot of variables to consider for planning. Winter Skardu could be as cold as -20C at night. Flights are often changed or cancelled on short notice. For those with less flexible schedules, it’d be wise to account for this and communicate with the Discovering Pakistan team for the mitigation plans and potential contingencies.
