Aoa.

I live in Khi and I am planning to visit northern areas from mid july for about 10 days in total (all travel included).

We are 3 people, My Spouse, I and my 8 year old daughter. So i need suggestions on following especially from people with first hand experience.

1. Where to go? I haven't been to anywhere apart from Muree. By looking at facebook videos, i am inclined towards Gilgit and Hunza but suggestions are welcome.

2. Shall i go by myself or get services of a tour operator company? Which tour operator is best from Khi.

3. I want to have great experience like getting good food and good travel, so how much budget should i keep for the trip.

Looking forward to your suggestions.

Thanks

I visited northern areas all the way till Khunjerab Pass from 9th to 14th June, 2018 from Gujrat. We were 5 persons. Its one hell of a drive. If u think u can drive all that much especially u r from KHI, then sure u should visit these areas. U dont want to go back to ur city when u r in these areas. This is all I can say ;) I dont know much about tour operators though. Driving on Karakoram Highway was the best drive I ever had. Gilgit is good but Hunza is the place u should really visit and stay for couple of days. I can name many places worth seeing in these areas. Best thing I would suggest u is go by-air till Gilgit as u r from KHI and then get some car on rent and visit Gilgit-Baltistan.

U can ask me anything. I'll be happy to be of any help if I can.

Pick the Mansehra > Balakot > Naran > Babusar > Chilas route instead of Besham, Dasu route as the former is shorter and better than the latter. U can stay at Naran if u cant travel all the way to Hunza in one go. There r many places in Naran worth seeing like Lake Saif-ul-Malook, Ansu Lake, Lulusar Lake, Siri, Payee, Lalazar, Shogran, Noori Top etc. While u r in Hunza u can visit Khunjerab Pass, Passu Cones, Sost, Attabad Lake, Altit and Baltit Forts, Eagles Nest, Karimabad, Nagar Valley etc. Sorry if I forgot any important place :p

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
