Worth it!!! - Exploria has proved to be a very helpful tool in planning my honeymoon trip to the Gilgit Baltistan region. My itinerary was extremely well planned including the flights, hotels and a very well versed driver/tourist guide.
The CEO, Mr. Arif had been super helpful in terms of response time, answering my queries and fulfilling my trip needs within the budget. His planning and suggestions truly depict that he has been doing this for quite a while and hence is very well experienced for the job at hand.
The hotels in Hunza and Gilgit were all top notch. Personally, I would have preferred a different choice of hotel for the Skardu region mainly due to the travel times.
The personal car and the tour guide provided were both excellent. Farid Bhai who acted as the driver and the guide was extremely helpful in terms of recommending good places to visit and restaurants to eat. In general, he is a good sport to travel along.
Overall my trip has been very smooth due to exploria and I would definitely recommend everyone interested in travelling to consult them for a complete planned tour package.
P.S. My personal favourite hotel out of the entire trip has been AMBIANCE. Their room, services and food was definitely the best in town. Highly recommend them for a luxurious stay and dining experience.

Adventure of a lifetime - Exploria personalized my 10-day trip to Northern Pakistan with a focus on trekking and fully delivered 200% Ajmal and Arif were flexible, accommodating and tailored every little detail to my interests. Biggest shoutout to the most experienced, supportive and friendly trekking guide, Asif who helped me reach Rakaposhi and Nanga Parbat Basecamps, as well as Baskoshi and Fairy Meadows. I would not have been able to witness stunningly pristine nature, while feeling very safe through all of my treks, if I had done them solo. And sincere thanks to Ijlal who drove us all the way from Skardu, Nagar, Hunza Passu, Gojal to Chilas and all over the Karakoram Highway. I cannot recommend this awesome team enough – they have made the trip that much more memorable.

An absolute memorable journey - I would like to take this opportunity to give you guys a brief review of our trip to Hunza. This was not a holiday but a journey. The arrangements put in place by Exploria were fantastic. Every hotel we stayed at was brilliant. Asif is an asset to your organisation, his mannerism and demeanour were professional yet friendly. He made the entire trip memorable with his knowledge and skills. As a well travelled family, this is by far our favourite and most memorable trip. It was brilliantly organised and delivered. I can wholeheartedly say we are struggling to come up with our top 10 moments as there are so many lovely moments to choose from. Particularly, we absolutely loved and cherished the trip to Fairymeadows. There are so many memories we made and unbelievable moments we experienced.such as stargazing on the first night, the view of Nangaparpat in the morning, the hike to basecamp, the horse rides, and hikes. The trip to Hunza was equally fanatastic and memorable. The friendliness of the people of Hunza is something we have never experienced anywhere in the world. Their honesty, warmth, and above all the beauty. The trip to the forts, eaglesnest, passu cones, attabad lake, khabour track, hopper glacier, the list goes on. You guys not only delivered what you promised but went over and beyond what was expected. The respect Ajmal showed us by coming to see us and taking us out for a meal, we will forever be grateful for. Ajmal again made the trip amazing by arranging for Asif to join us again and changing the vehicle. I can go on and on, but to summarise, a massive thankyou to you guys and your team for this wonderful trip and an opportunity to make absolutely unforgettable memories.

Beautiful glaciers!! - I went to Pakistan on a 10 day trip with my daughter in September 2023. The experience is highly recommended. They organized a guide who was with us for the full 10 days and who was able to explain to us both the cultural and nature aspects of the trip. Excellent!

Beyond expectations! - My name is Francesca and it’s 25 years now that I have been traveling around the world non-stop.
Pakistan was in the bucket list since a while and this summer I took the opportunity to come and discover that fantastic place: Gilgit Baltistan.
My trip began in Skardu driving then to Hunza Valley.
I don’t have the words to describe the beauty, the majestic of these ranges of mountains. My driver was so skilled (well he is from the region), Fareed is his name, friendly, efficient, doing everything to make me feel comfortable.
I loved the hotels chosen, the food (even though don’t hesitate to express your taste for the breakfasts, as they are mainly basic).
Final point: don’t be scared to come over, the region is safe and you’re in very good hands with Exploria.
I highly recommend Exploria!!

Hunza Valley - 5 Day Tour - We have just returned from a 5 day tour of Hunza Valley with Exploria Pakistan. From the initial contact with Exploria and booking process, all the way through to the logistics, the trip itself and departure from Gilgit, Exploria have been beyond excellent in their management, communication and execution of the trip.
All our requirements were facilitated in a charming manner and the quality of service offered by Exploria is in line with top international tour operators. The hotels recommended by Exploria were absolutely the best that Hunza has to offer; the guide we had was incredible, knowledgeable and supremely professional and had an innate knowledge of the region and the sites.
Exploria were on hand for everything we needed. They ensured our safety and comfort throughout the trip. They were flexible in accommodating our requirements and changes and helped make this experience a once in a lifetime trip.
Hunza is heavenly in its beauty and culture; I will highly recommend that tourists coming from outside Pakistan to visit go through Exploria for such a trip - it makes the experience even better!
