Pakistan -> Kyrgyzstan August 2018
 

Hi all,
it seems most people to the opposite but we're planning to cross China around August this summer (dates are flexible), Khunjerab to Irkeshtam (or Torugart or Kumla). We're two in a land cruiser.

Anyone interested in sharing a tour ?

I might be interested, although August might be a bit late - I'm waiting for them to announce the dates for the Shandur Top Polo Festival and then will probably plan from there.

Hi
Did you get a visa for Pakistan already? And where?
So far I'm informed that you can get it only in your own country....
I d be interested to share with you. Problem is only the pak visa. I am currently in TL with my car. Planning to cross Myanmar to India in March....

@hsinclai: Shandur Shandur top festival is end of July (in 2017 it was 29-31), so we're in sync. Let's try and find a couple other participants ! :thumbup1:

@toyotahiace: yeah, only in your home country, the rule is pretty tightly enforced :nono:. I've submitted mine in Switzerland, it was pretty simple. My partner is French so it has to be done in Paris and that is much harder. Long-time travelers send their passeport home for some relative to do the visa for them. Or maybe in some country you could "get" temporary residency..?

Welcome to Pakistan.
I found Shandhoor prettier without the Polo festival when it gets too dusty and noisy.
Any time is good time for Pakistan
Cheers

Our plans have changed and we won't do China this time, so thanks for those who responded but as far as we're concerned the case is closed.

Don't give up though, Pakistan is awesome !
