Join a couples 12 day tour of North Western Pakistan, the Hunza Valley and Chitral in a 1974 vintage ex-army Jeep. Meet the people that they met along the way including the remote Kalashi people, who are believed to be the descendents of the soldiers of Alexander the Great. After you have read this account you’ll feel like you’ve been to these tiny settlements on the Pakistan-Afghani border.With the closure of the Karakorum Highway in January 2010 after a devastating landslide, the activities in the Swat Valley by the Taliban and the shattering floods of September, this account of the couples travels in this remote area of Pakistan is one of the few recent accounts of travels in Pakistan. It was a dramatic and at times heart-stopping adventure. Recommended to adventure travellers. Anyone who has read Greg Mortenson’s books Three Cups of Tea and Stones into School will love this book.This short travelogue is ideal reading for people that love travel and travel stories.
