Dear Wheelers, i am planning a trip to Gilgit, Skardu,shimsal upto khunjrab in the start of November. i have vacation from 27-Oct to 10-November. (reserved 11-12 days for trip)
we are two guys, planning to rent a jeep from islamabad all the way to our destination and back.we will be travel via babusar.
we have no idea about that place, this would be our first time beyond Naran so some of my questions might be v basic.
My questions:
1) is that OK to go there in early November or it will be stupid. although we are looking for an adventure but also planning a trip which should be feasible.
IF point#1 is OK... then i have few more questions
2) will 12 days be enough for this visit.
3) how much approximately, renting a jeep will cost us, for 12 days from Islamabad.
4) how much budget will be enough for 12 days(2 persons), we have estimated 80000.
5) since its an unknown place for us...can we easily find guides there. or should we trust maps.... will GPS be of any use there??
6) any other suggestion/advise/tip/warning etc from you???
your feedbacks are much needed and would be appreciated a lot.Thanks
