How this is calculated
A US baseline of 90, 210 and 450 USD a day for the three tiers is multiplied by the price level of Pakistan (0.24128934824090748, World Bank 2025) and by a city-size factor of 1.1, then rounded to the nearest 5 dollars. Local amounts use the World Bank exchange rate of 281.143001173202 PKR to the dollar, rounded to two significant digits.
These are modeled estimates, not quoted prices. Read the full formula on the methodology page.

Where the money goes
Across the three tiers, the daily budget of $25 goes mainly toward basic lodging, simple meals, and short local transport trips, while the mid-range figure of $55 allows for better food choices, a private room with more comfort, and the occasional paid attraction. The luxury estimate of $120 a day reflects a more comfortable stay with better lodging and dining, though it remains well below luxury prices in many other countries given Pakistan's overall low cost level. Over a full week these add up to $175, $385, and $840 respectively for the budget, mid-range, and luxury tiers.
The cheapest and quietest stretch of the year falls in May, July, and August, when demand drops and travelers can expect to spend at or near the lower end of these ranges. Keep in mind that all the dollar figures here are estimates meant to guide planning rather than fixed prices, and actual costs will vary by traveler and by specific choices made on the ground.
Cheapest months by climate demand: May, Jul and Aug.
