Hey guppies
just read this thread and realised that because i am from here in the uk and my fiancee from pakistan we will have 2 weeks together after marriage as i have to be back after the summer [as only have 6 weeks off like school holidays because am a teacher] therefore need to think about honeymoon and it will have to be in pakistan obviously = due to visa issue. My fiancee was saying he will take me to places like murray, lahore, karachi, sindh etc.. and he said he will take care of our honeymoon. Do you recommend anything guys specifically and if so shall i drop it into conversation as well or say i really want to go to. I havent really seen pakistan much, grew up here and then went back last summer after 9 years, ended up engaged alhamdolilah and visited only lahore and karachi really and obviously faislababd where we are from. Went loads of places when i was younger in pakistan but been soo long. Look forward to your responses any suggestions would be nice.

Zeebs I dont know how much you can travel but lots of people from UK don't wana visit so many places at once. I would say travel Islamabad and cover the city an surroundings tourist points, stay at PC Bhorbun, it will take few days for you to visit with comfort these areas and then if you have time, you can travel by Air to Skardu and see the beauty of the life
Hi everybody,
has anybody visited skardu? I have heard of 02 good hotels there: shigar fort and shangrila. plz share ur experiences about the area.
Is murree/bhurbhan better than skardu for a honeymoon? plz give ur opinion.
AAAA Skardu is one the best vacation places in the Pakistan and I would recommend try Skardu if you could if not then Gilgit and Hunza valley. You can travel from Abbotabad to Gilgit via middle road that goes between the swat rout and Kagan road. For this route you will need to hire private jeep, do not try your own car. I have travelled from Swat to Abbotabad through this road and I have found this better than the the other two. This route will take you to the shahrahe Resham.
General rule of thumb for the new 'honemooners' is to travel up to very comfortable limit (traveling with energy and passion not with the buron of visiting and covering the area, reaching there, touching the location taking some pics and then run back home), otherwise you comeback home sick and regret that you should have not gone that for or to such and such area. You can also go via Murree > Nathia Gali > Abbotabad and then from there to your next route by skipping Swat.
