Touring Islamabad and Taxila - I had a tremendous full-day tour with Waqas, including a morning in Taxila (with its ancient Buddhist heritage) and a lively afternoon with stop off points such as the Faisal Mosque and the village of Saidpur and Lok Virsa Museum. Waqas is a reliable, friendly and knowledgeable guide. He provided many fascinating insights and he can design a day or half-day that ably meets the personal needs of each tourist. I highly recommend him.

Great day around Islamabad - Really wanted to see some of Islamabad so I booked a day tour via with Waqas as my guide. Was collected from my hotel on time (always a good start) and then had a private tour around some of Islamabad. Firstly visiting Saidpur village one of the oldest villages in Islamabad - also such a contrast to the expensive houses you see on the approach. People here live very traditionally and you will see what Pakistan is really like. Also so interesting to see the Hindu temple - a reminder of pre-partition days. From here we then went to Damn-e-Koh for some breathtaking views of Islamabad - the first proper glimpse of Faisal mosque. Also, you will see many other important buildings and then as you walk around the park lots of monkeys Next came Pakistan Monument, constructed to represent the unity of the Pakistani people. Truly amazing the artwork and effort it has taken to create. Finished off with a visit to Faisal mosque. This had been a dream of mine to visit and it was achieved today mashallah. Can highly recommend the tour - was really chilled, Waqas was really interesting and knew a lot about the history of Islamabad. Felt super safe with him and his driver; a really important factor as a solo traveller.

Excellent customised tour of Islamabad and Rawalpindi! - Excellent tour of Islamabad giving a real local’s insight into the city and country. Waqas spoke excellent English and had a deep understanding of Pakistan’s history, culture, and key sightseeing locations across Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Waqas created a customised tour for myself and my husband according to our preferences. We had him for a day and we covered a lot of ground including Mughal architecture of Rawalpindi, tuk-tuk journeys, walks through the small alleyways to find ancient sites, shopping at the bazaars, local meals and a trip to The Monal to have dinner overlooking the city of Islamabad. Highly recommended!

Pakistan Tour - We booked a 10-day tour to Pakistan. Waqas's travel guide was found on the Internet. Although 10 days is not enough time for a tour (14 days is better), Waqas very competently organized this tour for us. We traveled all over Pakistan from south to North. (From Karachi to Gilgit). We recommend booking guided tours from Waqas. Later we plan to visit Pakistan again, of course, with a guide Waqas.
