Overview
Leading Pakistani adventurers, Saad Munawar and Sirbaz Khan, are organising another wonderful trekking expedition to K2 base camp. Saad has studied this area in detail as he wrote a book on this trek in 2017. Sirbaz has trekked on this route every year since 2004. He is one of those few people on the planet who have summited Mt K2 twice. Saad and Sirbaz have prepared such a plan that not only our clients reach their dream destinations successfully, but they also enjoy the scenic journey along the way.
