Peshawar to Zhob Bus Ticket Price, Online Booking, Timing
The Peshawar to Zhob bus ticket price starts at about Rs 3,200. The journey takes ten to twelve hours through Dera Ismail Khan, and Zhob sits on the direct road between Peshawar and Quetta rather than on any motorway.
Short answer: fares start around Rs 2,900, and most services are the Peshawar to Quetta buses taking the direct Zhob routing rather than dedicated ones. The journey takes ten to twelve hours through Dera Ismail Khan.

Sparse country between DI Khan and Zhob
The road south west crosses thinly populated country with long stretches and limited stops. Carry water and expect fewer breaks than on the motorway corridors.
Two thirds of the way to Quetta
Zhob sits roughly two thirds along the corridor, with another eight hours or so to Quetta. The full run is eighteen to twenty hours.
Only the direct routing passes through Zhob
Peshawar to Quetta runs two entirely separate ways, and only one of them goes anywhere near this town.
South west
Through Dera Ismail Khan and into northern Balochistan. This is the routing that stops here.
East then south
A completely different road that does not come near Zhob at all.
A Quetta ticket is not enough
You cannot book any Quetta service and expect to get off here.
Confirm the routing before you book
Ask specifically whether the service runs via Dera Ismail Khan and Zhob or via Dera Ghazi Khan. This matters more on this corridor than almost anywhere else on the site, because the two roads share an origin and a destination and nothing in between. A ticket that says Quetta tells you nothing about whether it stops at Zhob, and on a route with this few departures, discovering that at the terminal costs you a day.

Which is the best bus service from Peshawar to Zhob?
Ten to twelve hours across sparse country, so the operator matters as much as the fare.
AK Movers
Luxury at Rs 3,800 on the direct routing, and the service most reliably stopping here.
Afridi Movers
Rs 3,200, though slower and with less certainty about the set-down.
Adil Shah Coaches
Rs 2,900, the lowest fare on the corridor.
The honest recommendation
Take AK Movers at about Rs 3,800 and confirm the routing when you book. The Rs 600 over Niazi Express buys a known routing on a corridor where the routing is the entire question, plus a better seat for an overnight crossing of thinly served country. Splitting at Dera Ismail Khan is the cheaper option and a genuine fallback if the through timings do not suit.
