Arrive at Islamabad International Airport and transfer to your guesthouse. Rest and prepare for the journey ahead.

Set off on a scenic road journey from Islamabad to Chitral, winding through majestic mountain passes and valleys. Arrive in Chitral by evening and check in to your accommodation.

Travel from Chitral up to Shandur Pass, one of the most breathtaking high-altitude drives in Pakistan. The road climbs through open meadows and mountain scenery before arriving at Shandur Top, where you'll settle into your glamping tent for the night.

A full day at the festival. Watch polo matches played in free-style tradition on the world's highest polo ground, surrounded by the Shandur Plateau at 3,700 metres. Soak in the festival atmosphere — local music, food stalls, and thousands of spectators from across Pakistan and beyond. Sleep under the stars at Shandur Top.

The highlight of the festival — the Grand Finale between the Chitral and Gilgit polo teams, one of Pakistan's most celebrated sporting rivalries. After the match and closing ceremonies, travel back down to Chitral city for the night.

Drive to the Kalash Valley and spend the day with the indigenous Kalash community, one of the oldest and most distinct cultures in Pakistan. Explore the traditional villages, visit the local museum, and learn about their ancient customs and way of life.

Depart Chitral in the morning and make the long return journey to Islamabad through the mountain roads of northern Pakistan.

A flexible backup day built in to account for any delays on the mountain roads. If the tour has gone to schedule, use the day to explore Islamabad — Faisal Mosque, Daman-e-Koh, or the local bazaars — before your departure.
