Pakistan To UK via Road

[Silver_Knife]

Asslam-o-Alaikum:

I need suggestions from PW member who can help me decide best route from Pakistan to UK.

And also budget selection, visa and some other requirements that i may face.

For now iam only planning this. May Allah grant me enough strength and capital ofcourse to pull this off.

I need help about route selection, permits required.

As far as i know shortest route to UK is:

from Pakistan to Iran -> Turkey -> Bulgaria -> Serbia -> Hungary -> Austria -> Germany -> Nietherland -> Belgium -> france -> England

Total distance from 1 side will be something like 8000km's

Vehicle: yes it will be a bike tour

Bro once u get into Europe ur bikes are going to struggle to keep up with motorway traffic.

It is possible.... some years back someone I knew did it (to PAK and back to UK) on a Yamaha trail bike 250cc carrying a 100kg plus weight (tools, chains, few service parts, Tyre and journey essentials) according to him took seven days and hardest part was through Turkey border and through Iran as he mentioned not sure about the rest of the route.
Also few senior Pakistanis in UK used to do this regularly back in the 70s and 80s days bringing their cars to Pakistan.
Best search and link up with some international adventure clubs for the best information about route and travel preparations.

Bro this depends, if u travel from uk to Pakistan this is much easier for u to get the entry permits of your vehicle and ur self but if u travel from Pakistan to uk this was harder then any thing specially when u have green passport and Pakistan register car. i tried in 2003 with multinational sponsor but didn't got success. specially Clarence of vehicle in Iran and Austria. i again try this in 2005 for china but china also refuse Pakistan registered cars

A very nice idea and initiative. It was no big deal till late 80s as many Pakistanis used to come to Pak via road.

If anyone knows the procedure or what to do, how to do, please share here. I will be visiting Germany in a couple of months and would love to go on my own car.

So the point is till now, the hardest thing is to get visa's
@manmachineadventure What you say then.?

I think we will end up having a inland country tour like Iqbal ghangla sb

Bro one thing is struggling the other is putting ur self in danger. Trucks and busses are no joke.
