    · December 21st, 2024
    I'm from the tourism island of Jamaica so I'm used to high service standards to guests, but the experience on this trip blew my mind away. From the start, the tour operator Bakhsh went out of his way to help me through a ton of challenges - from getting a Pakistani visa to adjusting flight schedules to building a customised tour programme. Like the average outsider I was initially hesitant because of all the noise about safety in the media, but when I got there it was a totally different from what I heard. Yes I saw lots of security guards with guns, but I see more and bigger guns around me being carried by police and citizens everyday when I'm in the US. I read about more innocent people being killed in random mass shootings at stores and churches and schools in the US, than I read about terrorist attackes in Pakistan When I started the tour, the tour guide Kushnood and the two drivers Farouk and Mtia took it to another level. Kushnood was the bomb, I asked a ton of questions about Pakistani life and he took me deep into what the country was all about and its history and culture. That's what I travelled thousands of miles to learn and I was well satisfied! He also was a great help finding the mandatory Pakistani souveneirs. We negotiated some excellent bargains - you can get 100% Persian silk carpets in Pakistan for hundreds of dollars less than the over-priced ones in Turkey! Unfortunately I picked up a bad flu (to my surprise it was much colder than Jamaica) but he helped my with getting medication as I limped along. Very helpful and friendly people all around - his mother even made me a pot of traditional herbal rice to help me recover! I also picked up an upset stomach from trying to mix and match the spicy food, but that was actually a benefit in disguise. Kushnood took me to the local hospital to replace fluids lost by vomiting, but this exposed me to the healthcare system in Pakistan. Trust me, if you get sick on your tour you're in good hands! I advise everyone to look past the hype from those who need it to sell papers and visit Pakistan for a memorable experience. Just do your research on what food to eat and clothes to wear and you'll be OK!
