The day will end with you getting briefed on the hunting journey ahead by your tour guide.

After breakfast, we will head out to visit the Maritime Museum, and the Air Force Museum. The museums are located close to each other, both sprawled out over an open-air museum space decorated with real decommissioned exhibits as well as historic galleries. We will drive from St Patrick s Church to Jinnah Mausoleum with its adjoining museum. Visit the mausoleum and the museum of relics of Pakistan s leader Quaid E Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah here. Built in 1958 68, the mausoleum is a white marble structure with a stepped pyramid inspired by the designs of a Turkish architect. The museum hosts things used by Mohammad Ali Jinnah along with important documents that led to the birth of the nation. We have arranged for you a food-tasting tour in the diplomatic area of Clifton which houses 5-6 of the most popular fusion eating concepts in Karachi s culinary scene. Caf Flo is a French restaurant, Okra is a Pan-Asian restaurant, and Khanji offers delicious traditional cuisine. Come with an appetite because this food tour has been arranged to introduce you to the diverse culinary options Pakistan has to offer. After lunch, enjoy a cup of tea at a roadside dhaaba (tea stall) before heading to Clifton beach. Take a quiet walk on the thick beach sand, ride a horse, or for a more unique experience, take a decorated camel ride along the shores of the Arabian Sea. In the end, we will visit the Mohatta Palace Museum. The museum was once home to Fatima Jinnah (sister of the founding father of Pakistan). The palatial structure now, however, is dedicated to the arts and hosts art exhibitions. After an eventful day, we return to the hotel for a late dinner at The Pakistani. Today you will be served the best cuisine from Baluchistan. This is the biggest province of Pakistan and has a mountainous and coastal terrain where for centuries meat have been the preferred diet. We would recommend the Goat Ribs and Northwestern Mutton Karahi.

Let s start the chase! We start early with a drive to Kharchat center in Khirthar National Park approximately 3 hours and 10 minutes long drive from Karachi. Karchat is one of the two accessible tourist centers in the park managed by the Sindh Wildlife Management Board. We will be providing cottage accommodation and guides to tourists who come for the hunt. Alternatively, you may stay in our premium campsite a bit deeper into the park. You will meet your professional guide and wild lifeguard team before you suit up for the hunt. Kirthar National Park is Pakistan s second-biggest National Park after the Hingol National Park. It has approximately 670km of rocky roads only accessible in a four-wheel drive. We have arranged for the best hybrid 4X4 for your journey in the wild. Set out in the national park towards the hiking points and close to your trail. Take a couple of hours hike to acclimatize to the terrain and the weather. Take an evening walk to the game watching points to see the Sindh Ibex. Get familiar with the guidelines of the park and plan your hunt with the help of professional guides. Dinner will be served at Kharchat center after which the guests will call it a day.

Huddle up, it is time to strategize. Plan your trail and hunting schedule according to the category of your trophy hunt (Category A, B, and C). Our seasoned hunting guides will be with you at every step to help you succeed in the most memorable chase of your life. Set out on the trail of your hunt and follow the instructions of the guide. Once the trail is captured and the hunt is marked by your guide, go for the aim. For the two top categories of games you will get a single shot attempt. Most hunters score these categorical trophies in Kirthar successfully, and the few who miss, always have another day. Spend the rest of the day exploring the villages around Karchat. There are not many tourists around here and the villagers are happy to greet you and invite you over for a tea. We will visit these houses, see local lifestyle, and hear them play unique music instruments along with their folktales. Dinner will be served at the guest house followed by an overnight stay in the wild and camp under the stars. BBQ dinner over coal pits and then gather around for tea.

Suit up as we leave early morning for one more attempt to hunt the rare Sindh Ibex. We can hunt this exotic animal in areas with an altitude between 500 and 1000 meters. Even though the hunt is better in the hilly areas of this region, the altitude does not make the hunt difficult. Moreover, the temperature is nice which makes the whole affair much more comfortable for our guests. The hunting season in Pakistan runs between Nov-April, while February and March are peak hunting seasons so plan your trips accordingly. After your second trail and attempt in the challenging terrain we head back to the hotel. The trophy is cleaned and prepared by the crew and will be arranged for the transport along with certifications. Next you will be driven to the ancient medieval port city of Bhanbore - located on the N-5 National Highway, east of Karachi - for the second hunting session. This will be for the wild boar hunting. We have arranged guest house stays for you in Bhanbore since its not a developed area. You will arrive by the evening followed by dinner and overnight stay so that you can get up close and personal with the dynamic vibe of the area.

This city is for the history lovers!. The ruins include Hindu-Buddhist relics and early Islamic ruins from the 1st century BCE to the 13th century BCE. This includes the first-ever mosque in South Asia that dates back to 727 AD built by the Arab Islamic warrior Muhammad bin Qasim. The ancient port site is still preserved in the city. Stand on the ruins of these history-making sites and enjoy the splendid view of the Indus River. Ask your tour guide to take you to the remains of residential areas with houses and other buildings within and outside the citadel. Stone buildings expanding over three periods including a Shiva temple from the city s Hindu period, and a mosque are also must-visit sites. We will take you for a quick visit to the desolate site of Chaukhandi Tombs located at an hours drive. Return to Bhanbore after your lunch to scour possible places where you may run into wild boars. Rest and prepare for our nocturnal adventure because we want you to be your 100% when we set out to hunt in the night.

Enjoy your thrilling hunting experience in the early hours of the day. We leave the guest house at 1 or 2 am with hunting guides towards the nearby bushes and the ruins (if permitted). Being a desolate area the SUV s headlight is the only source of light. Prowl through the thick bushes and challenge your nerves as you look for your next prey in the dark wilderness of Sindh. You will be accompanied by the local hunting guides and dogs to assist you in the hunt of the wild boar. Guests return to the guest house at about 9 am for lavish breakfast and catch up on sleep. Enjoy the culture of the place and meet local hosts. Ask them about historical artifacts that have been found in Bhanbore, including articles made of ivory, coins, copper, bronze, glass, and shells. The art of storytelling is ingrained in Bhanbore culture since the famous folklore of lovers Sassi and Pannu is associated with this city. Enjoy local stories and accounts over a cup of tea before heading back to the guest house.

We leave early morning for one more attempt to hunt the wild boars in the area. After the hunt comes to an end, we drive back to Karachi. Guests will check-in at Marriot and head to their Executive Rooms to rest at leisure. The room features king-size bedding, safe, oversized chairs with ottoman, writing along with attached bathrooms with Acca Kappa amenities and lit-up makeup mirror. Enjoy this downtime in your room with free room service and high-speed internet or head to the private access Executive Lounge for complimentary tea and coffee. You can also hit the fully-equipped onsite gym or take a dip in the outdoor pool. Dinner will be served at Nadia Caf an onsite restaurant in Marriot that offers A la carte continental and Pakistani cuisine. Don t forget to try the Haleem (a type of stew popular in Pakistan, Middle East, and Central Asia and piping hot kachoris (a fried snack made with gram flour and chilies) that have received raving reviews from travelers in the past.

After breakfast, you will be transferred to the airport for your homebound flight. We hope you loved challenging your nerves out in the wild with us. If you ever miss the adrenaline rush you felt in the wilderness of Sindh, you can re-book a tour with us and let us take care of the rest.
