I went to sawat gabin jabbah Mystical place with less tourists It was sooo peaceful and refreshing I want to recommend it to more people I stayed in these cute little pods which felt like living in a Hobbits cozy little hole...This place was a whole vibe ❤️

I’ve traveled too many places, but Northern Pakistan will always have my heart. Maybe I’m a little biased because it’s home, but this country genuinely has everything — mountains, beaches, all four seasons, incredible food, luxury, nature, calmness, and beautiful chaos all at once. A lot of people here dream of leaving, but honestly, I never have. Despite the political and economic struggles, there’s a kind of warmth and completeness here that’s hard to explain until you experience it...

Amazing experience, loved it all. Enjoyed a lot. My son was super excited. Duento GPS everything was easy to find. Reservations made meal times convenient. There are expensive and cheap food, shopping options, commute options, etc. Will definitely go again.

But it's amazing people and food in Pakistan!!! Only what I didn't like you always should pass that checkpoints and show your passport and visa... Majority of my travels was North Pakistan like Gilgit, Chitral. Most not comfortable things was in the north because of landslides and you should wait when we clean up and you some kind of stuck and if you have airplane or bus... you are going to be waiting until you can go by the road... It was unexpected slowly 🥴

Last year I went to Chitral (the Kalash valley) to be more exact and sad to report but the government has to do a lot to promote safe solo travel for women. I attended the chilam Joshi festival and although I went with a travel group, still at times I felt a bit unsafe amongst the locals. Also, the festival has become very commercialised... I wouldn't going as a solo woman traveller but women can go with a group.

There were a lot of things to do and it was easier on the budget — I felt safe but also keep in mind I traveled with a group and also speak the local language. From hiking to shopping to eating, there were always many things to do and I had the best time

Pakistan is one of the most beautiful places I have visited. The people are incredibly polite, everyone wants to take a selfie, the food is delicious, the prices are low, and most importantly, we felt very safe there. It's a place where tourism is not fully developed yet, which is a huge plus, because everything is still so natural. Nothing is specially prepared for tourists.

It’s good to have a company when travelling in lahore, otherwise it’s safe mostly in day and also depends on the parts of city. At night,however, it is advised to travel with someone to have a good experience of the city.

Because alot of diplomats and foreigners live in Islamabad , it is safer than other part of Pakistan. There no such exact unsafe area. Try to get internet as soon as u landed and installed some taxi apps such as indrive , careem , or yango . But always accept tide in there apps after checking reviews of the drivers

It is pretty much safe if you are exploring in a car pr with someone specially during day time. Nobody scams you here just few snatchers in specific areas that you need to take care of, always keep some local that you trust with you for the first time not just for the security but helping you explore as its a massive city!

Been living here my whole life, often travel alone if needed, son goes to school on local transport. Never had any issues. People are kind and helpful. The local police and public service departments are vigilant.

My city is safe relatively since people are more aware now and try to take care of each other. Plus i have travelled alone alot in my city for courses and university and for jobs as well, i did not face much trouble but obviously there will be men always that will stare. I’ve done night shifts as well but one good thing about lahore is that people dont sleep here so night time isnt really scary.

It usually safe expect for robbery cases have seen raise since last Ramadan and woman hate crimes, which were also highlighted in the news channel (very low) especially if you are traveling in the city area, that is quite safe, the red area which is also security sensitive, most of the diplomats and ambassadors live here,
