Meet Sajjad

Hi, I’m Sajjad — I travel on a Pakistani passport and a tight budget.

I’ve spent years dealing with visa rejections, embassy queues and paperwork that nobody explains properly. Trekker Travel is the guide I wish I had back then: plain answers, real prices, and routes I have actually taken myself.

  • Every guide is based on my own trips and applications
  • Prices and timings checked against real tickets
  • Written for low-ranked passport holders first
