Sadiqabad to Peshawar Bus Ticket Price, Online Booking, Service Timing

Peshawar is almost 1,000 km from Sadiqabad, the far end of the country’s main road and rail corridor. Faisal Movers lists it among its Sadiqabad routes, and Waraich Express’s Karachi to Peshawar coaches pass through the town, so a direct overnight seat is possible.

Fares are indicative published prices and vary with class, season, fuel adjustments and demand. Your live, confirmed fare appears on the seat map before payment.

Direct seats are limited

With few direct departures, it pays to book the Peshawar seat as soon as your date is fixed. Waraich’s through coaches start in Karachi, so availability at Sadiqabad depends on how full they already are.

If direct seats are gone, ride Daewoo to its twin cities terminal and continue on one of the frequent M-1 coaches to Peshawar. It adds a change but costs only a little more.
