Our Story

I’m Akram Pervaiz Posh, the founder of Hunza Face Voyageurs. My journey in tourism began in a family where travel and adventure were a way of life. My father was a hunter and tour guide, and my elder brother dedicated years to serving in the tourism industry. Growing up, I learned the art of hospitality, the thrill of exploration, and the importance of sharing our beautiful homeland with the world.

For over 28 years, my family has been deeply rooted in the tourism industry, working tirelessly to create unforgettable experiences for travelers. Inspired by their legacy, I took a bold step and founded Hunza Face Voyageurs over 10 years ago. What started as a dream to build our own tourism company has now become a platform to redefine travel in Pakistan.


Our Mission & Vision

  • Empowering Solo Female Travelers: We strive to make Pakistan a safe and welcoming destination for women traveling alone, ensuring they feel secure and supported throughout their journey.

  • Promoting Authentic Experiences: From sharing a cup of chai with locals to exploring hidden trails, we go beyond the usual tourist spots to offer genuine, immersive experiences.

  • Sustainable Tourism: We are committed to preserving the natural beauty and cultural heritage of Pakistan while supporting local communities.

At Hunza Face Voyageurs, we believe travel is more than just visiting places – it’s about immersing yourself in the true local vibe. Our mission is to break away from the typical, standardized tourism model and create experiences that allow travelers to connect deeply with the culture, people, and landscapes of Pakistan.

The Legacy of Sifat Shah

A Life Dedicated to the Mountains


His Bravery and Pioneering Spirit

  • In a time when tourism in Pakistan was virtually non-existent, Sifat Shah was one of the few who dared to explore and share the beauty of these remote regions. He lives in the mountains, braving harsh weather, rugged trails, and the challenges of a life far from modern comforts. His bravery and determination are unmatched – he treks for days, often in dangerous conditions, to guide travelers and showcase the untouched beauty of Gilgit-Baltistan.

My father, Sifat Shah, is more than a guide – he is a legend in the mountains of Gilgit-Baltistan. As an Ibex Hunting Guide and Wildlife Expert, he continues to explore the rugged terrains, track wildlife, and share his deep knowledge of the region with those who seek adventure.

His Way of Work

  • Sifat Shah is known for his unparalleled expertise in ibex hunting and his intimate understanding of the mountains. He doesn’t just guide; he teaches travelers to respect and appreciate the wilderness. His work is a blend of skill, patience, and a deep connection to nature.

    • Master of the Mountains: He knows every trail, every peak, and every hidden corner of Upper Hunza. His ability to navigate the toughest terrains is unmatched.

    • Wildlife Expert: With a keen eye and deep respect for wildlife, he introduces travelers to the beauty of ibex, snow leopards, and other native species.

    • Cultural Bridge: He doesn’t just show people the mountains; he shares stories of the local culture, traditions, and the people who call these mountains home.
