Islamabad Guide

Many visitors to Pakistan opt for a car hire service during their stay in Islamabad City as it allows for safe, independent travel. Car hire can be found in the city from: House No. 11.

Before setting out in your car hire vehicle, it is worth investing in a guide book, a good map and perhaps some relaxation exercises. While the cities roads are well-laid out on a grid system with a good quality of paving, it is home to some of the most chaotic driving imaginable.

While all looks orderly on a map, it is anything but! While Islamabad City is slightly easier to drive a car hire in than other southern Asian cities like Karachi, it can be incredibly stressful for Western drivers.

When driving through the city, it might help to remember the tale of the tortoise and the hare. While in this case, slow and steady might not win the race, it will definitely help you reach your destination with both your sanity and your vehicle intact.

Your driving skills will need to be sharp to maneuver through the city, so always be on your guard. Ensure that nothing can distract while you veer through a complex obstacle course of doors opening, drivers making turns from middle lanes and road hazards, such as piles of rocks in the road.

While many drivers neglect lane markings or even using signals, it is worth noting that traffic lights must be obeyed. Police in the area ticket drivers who fail to stop, however running a red is quite popular with drivers in Islamabad City.

Driving in your car hire in the evenings can be especially challenging in Islamabad City. More often than not, your path will be crossed by cars and motorcycles without headlamps and bikes without reflective lights.
