Pakistan Guide Books

Country forums / Indian Subcontinent / Pakistan

Are there any reasonably up to date guide books? I don't care about the brand, but have come up short in my search for anything even remotely up to date. Thanks.

There were similar topics before.
Since number of visitors to Pakistan have decreased considerably within the recent years (for reasons that we know), a new edition wouldn't bring enough profit on sales. It doesn't look like any of the publishers see much interest in making updates. Also, parts of Pakistan are off limits to travellers which makes it even more difficult.
Fora like TT are probably the best sources of up-to-date information.

fieldgate is more than right since the number of visitors to Pakistan have decreased considerably within the recent years, a new edition wouldn't bring enough profit on sales. It doesn't look like any of the publishers see much interest in making updates.
So agree TT are probably the best sources of up-to-date information
