Thank you brother !
Following is the expense details:
Fuel = Rs 15,000
Night Stays:
Night 1: I was traveling whole nigh and in the morning at 8AM reached PTDC Behsham, requested Manager Mr Goher to give room for short stay of 1.5hrs and he was kind enough open up room for us. No charges.
Night 2: PWD rest house Astore = Rs 2,000 but their official rate was Rs 1,500 but i didn't argue with them since it was best option available in Astore after looking at the rest houses condition in the town. Its a nice rest house having only two rooms. located besides the Army Mess in Astore.
Night 3 & 4: I had a advance three nights booking in PTDC Rama. Room rent was Rs 6,000/n since I'm member of PTDC friends club so got 20% discount so it cost me Rs 14,400. I didn't stayed third night here since my kidz were asking for Wifi and TV both were not available in the room, not even signals of any network
full chill program. They have only one TV in TV lounge at reception.
Night 5: I got transferred 3rd night to PTDC Sost. How I got it done is all together a different story rather my worse experience with PTDC since they don't have clear policies and even their Motel managers are not aware about the procedures OR they do it deliberately specially PTDC Rama. So be very careful while dealing with them.
Night 6: stayed in PTDC Gilgit in standard room since Deluxe room were all booked. Rs 2,800 after 20% discount. Room and washroom was just so so.
Night 7: stayed in Islamabad with relatives. No expense.
Total 5 nights expense = 2,000+14,400+2800= Rs 19,200

Will share some more pictures as I said I'm running short of pictures since I was driving and didn't taken risk to come out of car frequently to take pictures of surroundings because my 3 sons always follows me and comes out of the car immediately . . .
I have taken pictures but most of them are with family. Secondly I never knew I would be posting it on PakWheels since its my first post but for sure next time I shall come back with loads of it.
