Why I Need a Police Escort in Pakistan

If you’re travelling through areas like Balochistan or Northern Sindh in Pakistan, you will be required to travel with a police escort for your safety. The escort service itself is free, but it’s expected to give the police a small tip at the end of the day. 2 tips if you’re travelling in an area that requires an escort: 1. Skip all this hassle by taking a guide! They will manage the Police for you. The Police don't speak English. 2. Give yourself extra time. Police escorts can affect your schedule and route.
