AOA brothers, I'm "trying" to plan a trip from Lahore to Naran with my 5 other friends and i need your help (a lot). Please bear my stupid questions as i'm a first timer and answer them patiently(if you can).
Firstly, If we go on public transport what will be our route? I'm guessing it'll be from Lahore to Mansehra on some coaster bus like Niazi Express and then from there onwards we'll get hiace and jeeps and our legs or some other transport to reach places like Shogran, Siri & Pae and then Kaghan and Naran, Am i right or wrong?
Secondly, are places like Balakot and Bisian worth visiting or should we ignore them and not waste our money?
Thirdly, please guide us on hotel/motel rents in those above mentioned places?
Fourthly, I heard that staying in tents is much fun than staying in some hotel/motel? Also if we are short on tents can we rent in the above mentioned places?
Fifthly, some lakes will be nice. I know about Lake Saif Ul Muluk but i'm hearing a lot of other lakes like Aansoo lake etc. Where are these lakes and from where they can be visited and what transport do we and some rough budget for those transport will be nice..
Sixthly, name places where we shall make our stops so we don't die cos of vast travelling? 
If i forgot something do add it yourself and help us make this trip as much fun as you can and i promise when i'll return from this trip i'll write a detail thread on how our trip went with pics and every single detail which will help many other users like me on this website for future trips(i hope so).
