    Great experience on the tour, the guide and driver were very friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was very picturesque but unfortunately the road to one of the most picturesque lakes was closed. I did find that there did not seem to be too much to do but that may have been because I travelled out of season

    We had an incredible time on the tour. It was our first time in Pakistan and this made us feel so welcome and at home. The guides were incredible and we felt safe. And it was so interesting to talk about the culture. Will be recommending to anyone we know who is going to Pakistan!

    The Pakistan in-depth tour with GYPSI was truly amazing! A perfect blend of comfort, joy, and high energy throughout. We connected deeply with the country’s rich history and culture. The beauty of Pakistan is beyond words raw, real, and unforgettable. Hunza was a highlight breathtaking views and warm-hearted locals. Everything was well-organized, from travel to accommodations. This tour gave us a real, immersive experience of Pakistan. Highly recommended for anyone seeking adventure and authenticity!
