A Family Trip
Drove all the way from Karachi to Khunjrab. Alhamdulillah by the grace of Allah SWT my dream came true.I had done this trip solo a couple of times, but driving on your own was my first time. It took us around 3 - 4 days reaching to the Chinese Border. It was a 14 days tour. Roads were pretty disturb on way from Naran to Chillas and coming from Chillas to Besham ( as had to go to Madyn)
My itinerary started with my dear friend and a family member as well, Khurram Saeed Khan. We had agreed to head towards the said itinerary. As we had a similar goal. Our planning took around 1 month to decide where to go and how to do the things. Boarding and lodging when it comes to family, we had to decide the best for their comfort. With some good help, we had managed some good places to stay. Drive was around 9 hours with stopovers almost daily covering around 800 km at on average.
Drive to Khunjerab pass: 2,500 KMS approx one side from Karachi.
The places we covered from our itinerary were
Fuel: 585 Litres
Boarding and Lodging: 67,000 Pakistan Rupees
Mileage Covered: 5,155 KMS
Vehicle: Honda City 2019
