You can find many modes of transportation for experiencing live entertainment on your way to tourist-crowded spots. The climate is quite comparable to Florida with more than a whiff of pollution and a snag of humidity. You may even leave your luggage while you sightsee as the Jinnah International Airport of Pakistan offers a ‘left luggage’ service at the Arrivals area. Some hotels also provide this facility to their guests. Being the largest metropolitan and cosmopolitan city, Karachi is well connected by air, railways, waterways, and road. It is really easy to reach Karachi from Dubai, Thailand, USA, UK, Singapore and other cities while availing cheap flights from Dubai to Colombo or Muscat and then heading to Karachi. Due to the rush of vacationers during the colder seasons, it is recommended to book your tickets in advance for availing attractive discounts.
