Thank you Rehan. The pictures are ok. I have a OnePlus 2 but I do feel they would have come out a lot better if I had an iPhone or maybe a Samsung. Still I tried my best to capture every moment.

The place is amazing and the landscape is without doubt magical!

Lovely visit! My last visit to Quetta was in 2005 so I'm eager to visit it again. Great photos and narration! Thanks for sharing

Thank you for the comment. Quetta and Ziarat definitely are places worth visiting. The landscape is amazing and is very different from what we are used to seeing in the north.

JazakAllah, My country is beautiful. Planning for a road trip to quetta - Ziarat from Karachi for some 3 to 4 days, but it was only a Khayali Plao. lets hope when it was finalized.

Thanks for sharing the beautiful pics and encouraging us to go there. Inshallah

Nice pictures! Can you share cost of the trip?

mumbojumbo (The_Seeker) 2019-02-21 12:12:37 +0500 #10

You should definitely go there. I saw plenty of people from Karachi with families having a great time. You can see that in the Quaid residency pictures.

Thank you.

Since it was an official trip for me so flight tickets
+ hotel stay + food was covered.

1) SereneAir return ticket from Lahore: Rs 18000
2) Hotel room cost (Qasr-e-Naz, Jinnah Road): 2500/ night (no parking space!!)
3) Did not pay much for food since I was mostly a guest. Oh the perks!!!!
4) Dry fruit from Al-Naseeb: Rs 10000
5) Shopping for family: Rs 10000

There are other hotels as well such as Lourdes Hotel (has plenty of parking space) that offer rooms for around 5k Rs.

We were provided with transportation for the Ziarat by our hosts. But plenty of contract carriage options available for Ziarat and the rates are pretty affordable. Ziarat does not have any hotels or stay options as such and most people do day trips!!

Amazing trip you guys had. The weather looked pretty awesome Those beautiful clouds from top would have been treat to watch.

I did somewhat similar trip last year from 3rd to 05 Feb with friends. But our trip was from Karachi by road. We took Al-saif coach from Karachi. Explore Quetta and Ziarat in a friend vehicle.
