Carry your Original Valid Pakistani visa and Passport.
The Kalash Valleys sit near the Pak-Afghan border. Foreign nationals are legally required to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC). It is strongly recommended to book through a licensed, registered local tour operator who handles all permit paperwork seamlessly on your behalf.
The Kalash maintain an ancient animist lifestyle that is incredibly distinct from the rest of Pakistan. Always ask for permission before taking close-up portraits, especially of women and religious Places.
Accommodation in the valleys consists of basic, rustic guesthouses. Electricity can be sporadic, and there are no ATMs in the valleys; ensure you carry plenty of local Pakistani Rupees (PKR) in cash before leaving Islamabad.
