Pakistan, Afghanistan and the North East of India are often in the headlines for the wrong reasons so it may seem strange to find a travel company that specialises in travel specifically to these countries.

But, that is exactly what we do.

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 the regions we visit that, more often than not, are our guest's fondest memories.

Each year, we offer a small number of unique trips to these regions. 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 taking part in a pagan festival in the jungles straddling the Indian/Burmese border 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, retired headhunters 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.

April was a quiet month for Untamed Borders. In Peshawar we had a British guest with us exploring this ancient Pashtun city and documenting feelings in the build up to the imminent Pakistan elections. Photos from that trip can be found here.

Also in Pakistan, Kausar has been working hard as a freelance journalist ahead of the elections and has been arranging media publicity for one of his cousins who is standing for the national assembly.

In May we will be guiding two private groups in Afghanistan. We have more than a dozen trips to Afghanistan this year already booked. Many of them private.
