Dear PWs Assalam o Alaikum
I have gone through this thread and found it very informative and entertaining. I could not read the entire thread so I have to ask few questions, as me and my friends are planning to visit Kumrat Valley, Jahaz Banda, Jahaz Dand etc. Insha Allah after Eid-Ul-Fitr.
Questions:
1. As you people hired jeep from Dir adda to Jandrai, what was fare of the jeep and cost of fuel.
We hired jeep on Pkr 3000/day with our own Fuel.
2. What was rent of night stay at rest house in Jahaz Banda.
We do camping there but their charges ar very nominal. I think 700-1000 per night.
3. What was arrangement of meal in Jahaz Banda (Dinner + breakfast) charging etc.
we were carrying breakfast items along & did dinner & lunch from rest house as they can arrange everything on demand.
4. What was charging of porters/guide on Jahaz Banda/Dand trekking.
They charged us 800/day
5. What was rent of forest rest house in Kumrat, what was procedure of booking it, advance or on the spot.
As we were having Camps along but due rain we opted Forest rest house & booking was on spot (1000 /night) subject to availability. you may book it in advance from Sheringle town.
6. What was arrangement of meal in forest rest house.
There is nothing available in rest house but if you will take all food stuff there they can cook for you. One can take all necessary goods from Thal (last town before Kumrat Forest).
7. Jeep rent for Kumrat valley.
Same as mentioned above
8. And last question, what was full cost of tour (from Rawalpindi to Rawalpindi). And per head cost.
I think cost was approx 7000 per head RWP-RWP.
Thanks in advance.
