Ramadan. Good time to travel?
In waiting to see if there's a favourable outcome to the Pakistan election my intended April start to my RTW trip looks increasingly unrealistic. My next option is to set off sometime in early September. This will hopefully spare me the worst of the Turkey/Iran/Pakistan summer but will coincide with Ramadan.
I'm keen to hear any opinions as to whether this is a good idea or not.
I understand travellers are exempt from the fasting, but does this mean that roadside teahouses/eateries remain open or does pretty much everything close down?
Many thanks
Pete
