💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in family-run guesthouses rather than hotels to save 40-50% on accommodation while enjoying authentic Afghan hospitality and home-cooked meals included in rates.
📅 October to November and March to April offer ideal weather with mild temperatures and clear skies, perfect for exploring the city and surrounding valleys. Avoid the scorching summers (June-August) when temperatures exceed 40°C and the rainy winters (December-February) that can make mountain roads treacherous.
🛂 Indian passport holders require a visa for Afghanistan, obtainable through the Afghan Embassy in New Delhi or consulates in major Indian cities. Processing typically takes 5-10 working days; apply well in advance and carry all required documents including travel insurance.
