Noor, you are covering your,why don't you admonish Zulaikha to behave like muslim women and not to mimic westerns and mix with stranger men, she is definitely a bad example for other Muslim women
She was so lovely Ben. Pakistan also seems like such a friendly place, i'd love to visit one day
Very nice local 🙏🏼😅 had an amazing and friendly family
Thank you! We'd love to have you in Pakistan soon!
@@worldfoodadventure4009 hopefully one day ❤
@@Lenny101 It wud be nice if many westerners go there sooners.... Specially Frenchman r invited on a SOS notice... TLP TTP Labaik....
@Nitish Kumar let them go and explore once beautiful place ruins by madarassa chaaap & illogical Junta who discriminates not only between other castes but between Muslims too... Eager to takes money from western countries and everready to jihad against them on illogical issues. Explore with 2 conditions "Fear & Obey"....
Dear Zulaikha ,
i appreciate your effort to host Ben .
keep it up , will beat the false propaganda against us by our good gesture.
Thank you 🥰
Awesome comment ❤️

Everytime I watch a travel you tubers video on Pakistan it shows how amazing and hospitable the people are. It’s already on my long list of places to go. Would love to see at the end of your trip a comparison to India. Obviously you travelled all over India and are in Pakistan for a short time but it would be nice to see an insight. Ah Haaaaaa 👍
Ah mate it’s been so good here I can’t lie. I love a moan but it’s been hard to do it!! I’ll definitely do a comparison video to India
@@BackpackerBen 👍👍
Paul Standish pakistan is very friendly and hospitality people so dont think just come yourself and enjoy pakistan we will welcoming you from our heart welcome to pakistan
th-cam.com/video/M5dymXdihCs/w-d-xo.html
@Dunya se mutanafar India is also good country
Western backpacking expeditions on TH-cam are hidden gems , the fact your right up and close gives us a sense of the gritty real life visceral raw feel to Pakistan. Something anyone would appreciate Adds a layer of humanity to the place where people are going about their daily lives. Cheers Ben, Being a British Pakistani now living in the states i really appreciate your videos an others for throwing a light upon a very misunderstood part of the world. Hopefully encouraging others to venture out there , im certainly going to try and head up north in the majestic mountains when i ever go back to the land of my heritage
Awesome comment mate! Appreciate that and thanks for watching 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Kebab looked awesome, love seeing the amazing hospitality you receive..
It really is! such amazing people
Cant wait to back to my home country mate missing Pakistan all the way from the UK 🇬🇧🇵🇰
Ah mate I’m so sick of the UK!! Pakistan way better
Pakistan looks amazing, so different to from western cities, food looks great as well, enjoy your visit..
Thank you Captain 👨✈️
KARACHI is full of Bun kabab outlets .
Great to see you back on the road, Ben! You are wisely using a helper who is right on the track of the best local foods, so that you don't have to "re-invent" the wheel, and try to find places to see and go by chance. It does really help also to have a trip in a place where English is the lingua franca on the streets, for the purposes of travel. Good luck going upcountry on the train! Looking forward to seeing the sights through your eyes.
Thanks Paul mate 😎 top comments always
Wow what an adventure. You need several trips to really discover the different provinces of Pakistan dude. The beaches of Balochistan to the tallest mountains and all in between. No other country offers this in the world!
So many videos coming bro 😎 you’ll see I go to the mountains
th-cam.com/video/M5dymXdihCs/w-d-xo.html
I came across your channel a few months ago and before I knew it I had binge watched every single video like the maniac that I am. Stoked to see you on the road again but now having to wait inbetween new videos will kill me.
Absolute Legend mate
Thank you 🙏🏼
Its wonderfull place like heaven on earth i have also visited pakistan 2 months before great people very helpfull .. love from CANADA

Really very useful video ben.
Doesn't know anything about Pakistan like how it looks inside. but, you totally Shown everything especially my favourite place in Pakistan Karachi. One Day! Forsure I'll get to Pakistan and I'll take a Train from Lahore to Karchi. Lots of love from south india 🇮🇳!!!
I hope you can one day bro! Very similar to India here
Watching from India. How beautiful and amazing. Madly in love with Pakistan and its great people.

What a great treat! I would love to try this vegetarian kebab🙂 Enjoy your stay in Pakistan🇵🇰👍
Was great 😎🙌🏼 you would love it

@Lamar Davis You mean my TH-cam channel? I don't own any other media.
@Lamar Davis Pakistan is a very dangerous country to travel, recently a Sri Lankan guy was brutally beaten and burnt alive by a mob over false acusation of blasphemy , this can happen to any traveler, anyone can accuse a traveler of some random violation of Islam and mob will not think twice before killing you....and if not for mob lynching ,there's terrorism too , a hub of terrorism....so everybody should think twice before going to such a place..
Thank you for being my eyes ahead of my anticipated trip there next year Ben. Enjoying your videos. Greetings from Las Vegas, USA.
enjoy Sal :) loved it!!
Awesome first day in Karachi! Great content!
Yeahhhh boyyyy 😎🙏🏼
th-cam.com/video/M5dymXdihCs/w-d-xo.html
I would love to visit Pakistan one day, I have seen that the Pakistani people are very generous and love giving free food 🍗🍗😁
I hope you do! Where you from?
I'm so glad that you're visiting Pakistan and giving an honest
non-negatively biased review. Hope you visit Islamabad and Lahore too (where I'm particularly from), after Karachi of course! love to have you here!
Now in Islamabad 😅any tips??
@@BackpackerBen next tip
travel Peshawar and North Pakistan
@@chemistry990 I go north, you will see in the videos :)
@@BackpackerBen Well to be quite honest I can only think of a few, first one being that Careem is your friend here, since it's in English and regular taxis tend to overcharge locals even AND never cancel a ride if the driver is telling you too, he should cancel it himself, not you. That way you won't have to pay the cancellation fees. Also there is a huge language barrier so it's best that you have a local guide or a friend guiding you so you can get the best services for your money but if that's not an option (but it would be helpful if it was) then it's not really that worrying considering a good number of people in Islamabad particularly speak English in good fluency (make sure to go ask the younger kids or teenagers etc since they prolly speak better). Another thing, I guess it's a universal rule, to keep a copy of your passport instead of like actually physically giving the original to people. Other than that just have fun and visit the margalla hills and areas like f-9 park etc! The best hotels are Marriott or Serena ( nice food in both) for a stay but there are certainly more just as great if not more too. That's all, I'm probably the worst person for tips T^T.
All the best though!
Edit- typo :')

Well came to this one after watching about 4 other vlogs first but worth it tbh.
Amazing thing about you and Moonshine is that unlike many other vloggers, you and him take effort to reply to some of the comments too.
I don't expect all of them to reply everyone on all comments as it is virtually impossible but for this you do deserve the acknowledgment.Fantastic.
thanks Ameel ;) try my best

Oh my god the memories, I'm from Plymouth, now living in New Zealand. Could never go back there permanently now. I found your videos a few weeks ago and the first time you opened your mouth I thought, "That there bey's from Plymuff". No mistaking the Janner. I used to live in Eggbuckland (born in St Judes - says a lot haha) and was a teacher at Plymstock school. Also lived in Southway, Estover, Mainstone, Elburton, Peverell and a few years in Kingsbridge. From Bretonside up the A38 - I have traveled on those National Express buses to London more than once. Whereabowts in the Muff are you frum me 'ansome? You sound like a St Boodeaux bey to me. 😂

thanks bro!
I love how people are doing more effort on building positive image than government
great comment bro!
Thanx a lot for visiting
I just came back from pakistan back 2 uk
Where did you visit mate??
Don't understand why most of these western vloggers start In Karachi. It's probably the most intense and fast paced city in Pakistan. Its better off starting in the modern, calm backdrop of the capital Islamabad to settle in. Then see the scenic northern region of Gilgit Baltistan, Lahore etc and end the trip in Karachi. In my opinion that would be more sensible
Honestly you are correct 😆
@@BackpackerBen hope you enjoy the entire trip, from a British born Pakistani based in West Yorkshire!

You're supposed to put curry on rice and then eat it with spoon or fork or the traditional way of eating by your hands without using any spoon or fork.
2nd way is to eat it with roti or naam.
Pakistan has stunning nature i hope you gonna enjoy and waiting you more Videos From Somaliland
