Rent a Car Lahore to Islamabad with Driver

Need to travel from Lahore to Islamabad? We offer a car with a professional driver for the trip, and you can choose a one way drop or a round trip. The journey is about 375 km on the M-2 Motorway and usually takes four to five hours, so a comfortable car and a driver who knows the route make a big difference. You tell us where to pick you up in Lahore, and our Islamabad team receives you at your hotel, office or home in the capital. For local trips once you arrive, see our main page to rent a car Islamabad.

Motorway or GT Road?

Route Distance Usual time One way rate
M-2 Motorway About 375 km 4 to 5 hours From Rs 16,000
GT Road About 307 km About 6 hours From Rs 14,000

Most travelers choose the motorway, because it is smooth, has few stops and gets you to Islamabad faster. However, the GT Road suits you if you want to save on the fare or stop in towns along the way. The road passes Gujranwala, Gujrat and Jhelum, and some guests add a visit to Rohtas Fort near Jhelum. Since traffic and town crossings slow the GT Road, plan for at least six hours.

What a Typical Trip Looks Like

An early start makes the journey easier, so many guests leave Lahore at six or seven in the morning. After about two hours, the driver stops at a service area such as Bhera or Kallar Kahar, where you can have tea, pray and stretch your legs. Then the road crosses the Salt Range, and you reach Islamabad around midday. If you prefer a different plan, tell us, and we adjust the stops.

Winter Fog and Weather

From November to February, dense fog can reduce visibility on the motorway, and the authorities sometimes close sections for a few hours. So, if you travel in winter, start after sunrise and check the Motorway Police updates before you leave. Also, tell us your travel date early, because we can suggest the safest time to depart. In summer, the car is air conditioned, so the long drive stays comfortable.

Pickup in Lahore and Drop in Islamabad

We pick you up from any address in Lahore, including these areas:

  • DHA, Gulberg, Johar Town and Model Town
  • Bahria Town, Thokar Niaz Baig and Saddar
  • Allama Iqbal International Airport, hotels and offices

In Islamabad and Rawalpindi, our drivers know the roads and can drop you at:

  • Sectors F-6, F-7, F-8, F-10, F-11, G-6, G-9, G-10, G-11, E-7, E-11, I-8 and I-9
  • Blue Area, DHA, Bahria Town and Gulberg Greens
  • Rawalpindi Saddar and Bahria Town Rawalpindi
  • Hotels, embassies’ areas, offices and Islamabad International Airport

The new airport is a good distance from the city center, so please tell us the exact drop point and add some extra time.

Which Car Should You Choose?

For one or two travelers on a budget, the Suzuki Wagon R is the cheapest option. A family of four fits well in a Toyota Corolla, and business guests often prefer the Corolla Altis or the Honda Civic. If you travel with five to seven people, look at the Honda BRV or the 7 seater van. For VIP guests, many people choose the Toyota Prado, and a bigger group can travel together in the Saloon Coaster.

  • Stop every two hours at a service area, so the driver and passengers can rest
  • Keep some cash and a phone charger in the car, since signals and shops are fewer on long stretches
  • In winter, check fog and road updates before you leave, and start after sunrise
