Pakistan and Afghanistan are currently in the headlines and on the front pages around the world for the wrong reasons so it may seem strange to find a travel company that specialises in travel specifically to both those countries. But, that is exactly what we do.

Untamed Borders offers a rare opportunity to visit Afghanistan and Northern Pakistan, to take you to places you may only have heard of in news reports and to places you may not have heard of at all. We only offer trips to remote, unexplored areas and the way we work gives an exciting alternative to other travel companies.

The North of Pakistan and Afghanistan are incredibly beautiful places and are rich in history both ancient and modern. The area has a remarkable Geography, that sees the Hindu Kush, the Karakorum, the Pamirs and the Himalayan mountain ranges collide. However, it is the interaction with the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan that, more often than not, are our client's fondest memories.

Each year, we offer a small number of unique trips to both Pakistan and Afghanistan. They are individually designed to capture an area when it is at its best or to coincide with a cultural event that few people ever get an opportunity to see. Whether it is watching the worlds highest polo match in Pakistan or watching children kite fighting in Kabul we will ensure that you get a very personal experience.

We don't believe in being bystanders either, we will ensure that you get to meet the people and the characters of the areas. We can count Chitrali princes, Tribal chiefs and ex-mujahedin hoteliers to name but a few as friends and we think that this close relationship with the people will give you an unmatched insight into these untrodden areas.

August saw the worst floods to hit Pakistan in living memory. Untamed Borders only had one guest in Pakistan at the time and despite being cut off from his guide James in the Kalasha valleys for two days he escaped the worst of the floods.  

Prince has been working with his NGO collecting money locally and distributing aid to displaced people in the Nowshera and Charsadda districts around Peshawar. This work is ongoing and we will be involved in it for some time. Kausar has divided his time between helping distribute food and clean water with a trip to Kabul to help a journalist work on a story regarding Kabul’s small Hindu minority. 

We hope that Pakistan can recover from this latest setback. Please feel free to contact us if you wish to aid us.
