The path less travelled - We wanted to see something outside the city & this tour fitted the bill. It is a long drive & fog delayed us, but seeing all the scenes of rural life along the way made it very interesting & worthwhile. We particularly loved all the decorated trucks, works of art! The road back from Khewra is very rough & dusty so be prepared for a bumpy ride! The temple complex had a very ancient & peaceful atmosphere. The salt mine was fascinating, it was especially surprising to see an asthma resort there! Shared was a kind, courteous & very knowledgeable guide.

Jojo the Tourguide and northern Pakistan. Salt mines, temples and lakes between Lahore and Islamabad. - I booked a tour in Pakistan to the Salt Mines, Old Temples and Lake towards Northern Pakistan between Lahore and Islamabad. It was amazing especially my tour guide Jojo. She knows everything interesting about this tour and pretty much everything else if you are into hiking, mountains and sightseeing in Pakistan.

Fascinating! A Magical Day! - So much about this trip was amazing. The mines? A totally fascinating and unique experience. The temples? Extraordinary. But I loved the journey between these places as well. The guide was a great guy who was ever so interesting, he really knew his stuff. The driver was an absolute star - I will never forget you Mr Schumacher! Bonuses like that aside, this is a great trip - I wholeheartedly recommend it!

Great day! - We spend a wonderful day - the guide spoke English well, was very nice, talkative and attentive. He explained us a lot about the sights and Pakistan in general. We travelled in a comfortable car with an air conditioning. The food was good, even tought we are vegeterian. Kherwa Salt Mine was impressive - it's second biggest salt mine in the world and it looks very beautiful from the inside. Kata Raj Temple was also interesting.

Katas Tample Raj - The complex is stunning with intricately carved temples and a serene sacred pond. The atmosphere is peaceful and spiritual, perfect for introspection and connection with nature. The architecture is a masterpiece, showcasing the skill of ancient craftsmen. The temples history and legends only add to their allure. The site is well-maintained and the staff is friendly and informative. A must visit for anyone interested in history architecture, or spirituality. A truly unforgettable experience
