Karakorum Highway, Kyrgyzstan, China, Pakistan, Summer 2012- sharing guide costs
Hello
I am posting to try and gauge any interest in travelling via the Stans, into China and then down into Pakistan.
To get through China, a guide is needed, and I have seen figures posted around about the €/£800 mark, this is very expensive, and I know that last year, a group got together and traveled together, thus sharing the expense.
If you are interested in doing this in 2012, please let me know and post here, as mentioned elsewhere, if the political situation between the US/EU states and Iran becomes more delicate, then this option may prove more popular.
I will be contacting the two state registered travel guide companies that do the route in the mean time and get up to date prices. I know it is necessary to book up several months in advance of travel, in order to get all the paperwork in order, so not to long to sort out.
