Rent a car with a driver in Gilgit & Hunza
The Karakoram Highway to Hunza — Land Cruiser and van hire with drivers who run this road regularly.
Driving in Gilgit & Hunza, honestly
Hunza is the trip people plan a whole holiday around, and the Karakoram Highway is most of the experience: two long days from Islamabad through Besham and Chilas, or a flight to Gilgit and a car waiting at the airport. The road is paved and genuinely spectacular, but it is mountain road with landslide sections, and the Gilgit flight is weather-dependent and cancels often enough that any sensible plan has a drive as its fallback. Once you are up there, Karimabad, Attabad Lake, Passu, Khunjerab and the Eagle's Nest at sunrise justify every hour of it. Book a Land Cruiser and a driver who has done it.

Questions
Car rental in Gilgit & Hunza — questions
How much does it cost to rent a car in Gilgit & Hunza?
We do not publish a rate card, because the honest answer depends on the vehicle, your dates and how long you need it — a headline daily rate would overcharge anyone hiring for a week or a month. For Gilgit & Hunza we price the whole itinerary rather than a flat day rate, since the vehicle and driver travel with you. Send your dates on WhatsApp and you get one fixed total in writing, including the driver and fuel.
Can I rent a car with a driver in Gilgit & Hunza?
Yes — that is how most of our bookings run. You get a vetted professional driver with the vehicle, fuel included for normal use, and up to twelve hours of use per standard day. For Gilgit & Hunza the vehicle and driver come with you from the twin cities or meet you on arrival.
Is self-drive rental available in Gilgit & Hunza?
We do not release self-drive vehicles for Gilgit & Hunza. The roads involved combine altitude, single-lane sections and landslide zones — it is chauffeur-driven only.
How long does it take to drive from Islamabad to Gilgit & Hunza?
About 14–16 hr for the 600 km (split over two days — overnight at chilas or besham). Add time in peak season and allow for weather on any mountain section — our drivers plan departure times around both.
Which vehicle should I book for Gilgit & Hunza?
An SUV is the safer choice here — the surfaces and gradients punish low cars, especially outside summer. For groups above five people a 13-seat Hiace is cheaper per seat and keeps everyone together.
Anything else I should know about Gilgit & Hunza?
Never plan a single-day drive from Islamabad. Two days with an overnight, in both directions. Gilgit flights cancel for weather regularly — keep the road option in your plan. Khunjerab Pass is seasonal; foreign nationals should carry passports for the checkposts.
