We know safety is the number one concern for travelers visiting Pakistan. We don't rely on algorithms — we rely on human verification, transparent reviews, and direct support channels you can actually reach.
From the moment you book to the moment your experience ends, we have multiple layers of protection in place.
Every host on Pakistan Locals has submitted their CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card). Our team manually reviews and verifies each document before a host can list an experience. Only verified hosts display the ✓ badge.
Sending a booking request costs nothing — we take no online payment. Your host reviews and confirms your request first, and you pay the host directly. If a host cancels, you owe nothing.
After every experience, you can leave a detailed star rating and written review. Reviews are never deleted by hosts. This helps future travelers make informed decisions and holds hosts accountable.
Reach us on WhatsApp at +92 347 8204948 or through our contact form — we respond within 24 hours. In a real emergency, contact local services first (Rescue 1122 or Police 15), then let us know so we can help.
Every listing has a clear cancellation policy (Flexible, Moderate, or Strict) shown before you book. And because you are never charged online, a cancelled request costs you nothing. No hidden terms.
No experience appears on Pakistan Locals until our team has manually reviewed and approved it. Listings that look misleading, unsafe, or not genuinely local are rejected before they ever go live.
We are committed to making every host feel safe, supported, and respected.
Travelers create an account before they can send a request, and every request shows you who is asking and for when. Nothing is booked without your confirmation — you decide which requests to accept.
Payment is settled directly between you and your guest — Pakistan Locals does not process it online. You agree the price and payment method with the guest when you confirm, and your listing's cancellation policy is shown to every traveler before they book.
If a traveler damages your property or behaves inappropriately during an experience, report it to us on WhatsApp or through the contact form. We review every report and act on it.
Travelers who violate community standards — harassment, disrespect, no-shows without communication — are warned, suspended, or permanently banned from the platform.
Pakistan is an incredibly welcoming country. A little preparation goes a long way.
Every host goes through the same process before their first listing can go live.
Hosts upload front and back photos of their CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card) before they can publish a listing. No document, no listing.
A member of our team manually reviews each CNIC and checks that it matches the host's profile details. Anything that does not add up is flagged and the host is asked to clarify before approval.
Every experience a host submits is individually reviewed before it goes live. We check descriptions, pricing, and meeting points, and reject listings that are misleading or unsafe.
We monitor traveler reviews and reports on an ongoing basis. Hosts who receive reports of misconduct are suspended while we investigate.
Pakistan Locals is built on mutual respect. These rules apply to everyone.
If you witnessed or experienced something that violates our community standards, please contact us right away. Every report is taken seriously — we respond within 24 hours.
In a real emergency, call local emergency services first — Rescue 1122 or Police 15 — then let us know.
