I really enjoyed the ancient monuments and seeing the farming practices and land management.
Tips?
Seriously consider the visa application, the email visa support team was useless so paying Travcour was the only viable option. On arrival in Karachi, visa check desk advised that they could fill the visa form in approximately 10 minutes...Air pollution effected my chest and wearing a face mask was helpful
