The regional operator
Afridi Movers works the Peshawar and Kohat corridors as its home network and runs both executive and business on this route. On a road with five operators it is the one with counters and current knowledge of conditions further west.
Kohat is an hour back
Kohat has six operators and is the interchange for this whole quarter of the province. Local transport west along the valley road runs through the day, which makes a two leg journey straightforward if the direct timetable is awkward.
Where the valley road begins
Hangu sits on the road west from Kohat, at the point where the route into the Kurram valley turns off. Most people passing through are on their way further.
Kohat
An hour back, with six operators and the interchange for southern KP.
Up the Kurram valley
Towards Parachinar, on a road served by local transport rather than intercity coach.
Daylight for the valley
The onward leg runs in daylight only, so an evening arrival costs you a night.
Planning it properly
Take an evening departure from Lahore so you arrive in the morning. That is the pattern for anyone continuing into the valley, and it costs nothing to arrange. If the direct timetable gives you only a late arrival, break at Kohat instead and come west the next morning with the day ahead. Check current conditions on the valley road locally before committing to the onward leg.

Which is the best bus service from Lahore to Hangu?
Five operators on one road, so arrival time and local knowledge decide it.
Afridi Movers
Executive at Rs 3,100 and business at Rs 3,300, with counters across the Peshawar and Kohat corridors.
Skyways
Air conditioned economy at Rs 2,400, the lowest fare, an hour behind the quickest on a nine hour run.
Faisal Movers
Business at Rs 3,600 with a cancellation window, which matters where conditions can change plans.
The honest recommendation
Take Afridi Movers executive at about Rs 3,100 on an evening departure. The Rs 700 over the cheapest ticket buys forty minutes and an operator whose staff can tell you about the road west, which is the useful part on this route. If Hangu itself is your destination and you are travelling light, Skyways at Rs 2,400 is perfectly sound.
