4-Star: 9 Days 8 Nights Spell-Binding Tour
The spell-binding circuit — Islamabad, Taxila, Kaghan, the Babusar Pass, Hunza, Gilgit — travelled on a four-star footing. The route is identical to our classic nine-day grand circuit: the same UNESCO ruins, the same 4,170-metre pass, the same two full days in the Hunza valley. What changes is the comfort line: the best available rooms at each stop, upgraded vehicles, and a little more space in the schedule for long lunches and slow mornings. For travellers who want northern Pakistan's full sweep without giving up their comforts to get it. Nine days, eight nights, private transport and GreenPak guides throughout.

Trip overview
This is our most-loved introduction to the north. You'll trek the gentle trail into Fairy Meadows for sunrise on Nanga Parbat, then follow the Karakoram Highway to Hunza for Baltit Fort, Attabad Lake, and the road to the Khunjerab Pass.
Small group, private transport, and time built in to slow down, with local guides who grew up in these valleys.
