About this trip

This 13-day journey traces a route from Karachi across Sindh and Punjab to Peshawar, taking in the country's Sufi heritage, desert forts, and some of the oldest urban ruins on earth.

You start in Karachi before heading through Sindh to the ancient city of Mohenjo-daro and the Cholistan Desert, then on to Multan, Lahore, Islamabad, Taxila and Peshawar. It's a wide sweep of Pakistan's history, from Indus Valley archaeology through Mughal, Sikh and British-era layers to the present day.

This is a private, fully guided trip, so the pace and focus can flex around you, and it works well for families or those travelling over Christmas and New Year who want a guided introduction to Pakistan rather than a backpacker route.

What you'll do

  • Explore Karachi's streets and historic Mohatta Palace
  • Visit the ancient ruins of Mohenjo-daro
  • See Derawar Fortress in the Cholistan Desert
  • Discover the Sufi shrines of Multan, the City of the Sufis
  • Take in Mughal, Sikh and British-era sites in Lahore
  • Visit the ancient city of Taxila before finishing in Peshawar
Good to know
  • Private and fully guided, so itinerary pacing can be adapted for your group
  • Covers a lot of ground across Sindh, Punjab and the north, so expect regular travel days
  • Rated easy, making it accessible for families and mixed-ability travellers
