WELCOME TO PAKISTAN and allow me to introduce myself M Ayub Khan a tour guide and Tour Operator from Ghizer Gilgit-Baltistan of Pakistan
I was born and raised in a remote village in Gilgit-Baltistan The Jewel Of Pakistan the most spectacular region surrounded by natural beauty with stunningly scenery of snow-capped mountains and turquoise lakes, a popular destination for mountaineers and trekkers alike where glaciers found in the Northern mountain range of Hindu Kush Karakoram and Himalaya are the largest anywhere in the world excluding the Poles.
Travel is in my genes where my ancestors once walked long ago today I explore with amazingly wonderful experiences gaining greater appreciation of natural surroundings and traditional cultural heritages.
On completing of my studies two decades ago I started work in tourism to share my knowledge and experience guiding tourists to experience Pakistan lifestyle and hopefully change their perceptions of Pakistan.
I have met people from all walks of life from around the globe enabling me to lead tour groups with great success and acclaim and broaden my horizons taking me to the skies too, l have travelled quite extensively visiting United Kingdom France Belgium The Netherlands Turkey and Saudi Arabia but to name a few.
I have worked exclusively with KE Adventure – Lake District UK and Hindu Kush Trails predominantly involved in promoting tourism through English speaking tourists globally. I have organised tours and guided cultural groups to special interest private tours from official guests to historians during visits to Pakistan with fascinating experiences with interesting talks on the historical battlefields of Gilgit-Baltistan and other areas of expertise including mountaineering cultural history art architecture archaeology and photography.
Besides tourism charity work is an important aspect in my life prior to establishment of Ayub Hamdard Foundation as a charitable individual I contributed to humanitarian efforts – I participated in charity events raised funds and reached out to communities and individuals to help provide relief with potential to take charge of their future and live lives of dignity in the worst affected isolated regions to survive in the immediate aftermath due to natural disasters.
Tourism is greatly rewarding for local communities, the environment and tourists, destinations will not only survive they will thrive assisting host communities providing services to alleviate poverty a positive impact.
Ayub Hamdard Foundation believes that WE are responsible for one another as part of humanity to bring about positive change in this world ONE WORLD ONE DREAM.
