If you're travelling around bigger cities like Islamabad and Lahore, there are extensive bus and minibus services, but they can get crowded. Rickshaws and rideshares are cheap and convenient alternatives to get around the cities. Travelling by train is a great way to see Pakistan. Pakistan Railways offers seven different classes on its trains, from AC Sleeper classes with long bunks that can be used as beds or benches to budget-friendly second-class seats. If you are travelling longer distances, reserve an air-conditioned sleeper for extra comfort. There are daytime and overnight trains along the main route from Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, which takes about 20h. The historic Bolan Mail travels daily between Karachi and Quetta. Some trains stop at all stations along the way, while others travel express. Usually, the slower the train, the cheaper the tickets. Daewoo Express and Faisal Movers also offer reliable coach services if you are travelling between cities. While you can hire a car in major cities, roads and traffic can be chaotic. If you prefer to travel in a private vehicle to visit more remote places, you can hire a car with a local driver. Domestic flights operate daily between the major cities and are great if you're travelling to the northern mountains or have a tight schedule.
