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.

Latest News 

In September we ran what we hope to be the first in a series of fact finding trips to Pakistan and Afghanistan aimed at students of Politics, Journalism and Anthropology. Students from Oxford University spent 10 days with us. They broke the fast of Ramadan with religious students in Peshawar, chatted to a mine clearance team in Bamian and had a picnic at the lakes of Band e Amir. Please contact us regarding next years fact finding trips.
 
Despite Peshawar seeing an upturn in bomb attacks in October and November we still had a few intrepid tourists visiting us in Pakistan during this period. Prince and Kausar took a British couple around Peshawar and worked with 2 seperate Japanese photographers wishing to document the ancient Buddhist monasteries at Takht e Bhai and Taxila.
 
In December we will meet an Australian group looking to see the sights of Peshawar and understand something of the music of the Sufis, the Islamic mystics that live at the shrine of the most famous Pashtun poet, Rahman Baba.
 
The winter is arriving and we have no major trips planned until the Spring of 2010. 2010 will see a full program including a new horse riding trip across the Wakhan corridor of Afghanistan and another trip to visit the hill tribes of North East India close to the Burmese border. Again, contact us for further information.
