LAHORE,
PESHAWAR, HUNZA &THE KHYBER PASS
 Our tour features some of Pakistan's most
memorable sights-Lahore, the Paris of Asia" - the legendary Khyber Pass and story
Tellers' Bazaar of Peshawar - the emerald valley of Swat the ancient Silk Road to China,
the present day Karakorum Highway - and the Hunza Valley, the fabled
"Shangri-la", where, on average, people live to be 110! We will be using various
modes of transport including rail in bogeys reminiscent of the British Raj; but for the

simple but comfortable, reflecting the local style, and where possible, in village
guesthouses.
