Murree Tourist Traps

There are many touts & agents hanging around at the centre of Murree, Mall Road. They will introduce/bring you to some accommodation & let you know the price. However, please check with the owner or receptionist for the actual rate.

If you are foreigner and wish to travel to other areas, better look for a Englsih speaking driver & always negotiate the price & discuss the places you want to visit before make any decision.

The taxi driver usually will charge for the whole day for a destination (Some distant from Murree). Some drivers will first agree on the itinerary you proposed and then change their mind at last & giving excuses. They want to get your business, so they will make any promises, but they might can't fulfill later on.

One more thing, if you hang a bit longer at the destination & reach late at Murree, they will request you to pay more on top of the agreed rate. Please tell them that the rate is for FULL day.

Unique Suggestions: If you are foreigner and want to travel to other areas by renting a car, better look for a English speaking driver. If the taxi driver changes his plan, you can always argue with him.

Although most of the People in Murree and neighbouring hills are nice. You may find some greedy people around you who stick to you and force you for something like horse ride, capturing photos, being guide for some place. Most of them charge you for nothing or over charge. So if interested in something then first decide the rates or what to pay, then proceed.

Guide or Taxi driver recommended by your hotel will be nice. Other than that do not rely any person who claims for this. Again bargain issue arises and secondly these people cheat on you. They will show you a locaiton which physically does not exist. Like K-2 peak in Murree. hahaha.
