Package Itinerary

Day 1: Tehran

Iran's capital is exciting, noisy, and chaotic. Home to 15 million people, Tehran is where the country's complex modern identity and illustrious Persian past collide.

Days 2-3: Shiraz

Known as Iran's cultural capital, the very name Shiraz evokes images of ancient Persia: tranquil gardens, lavish mansions, colorful woolen rugs, art, philosophy, and poetry.

Day 4: Nomad Stay

Famous for the nomadic tribes who roam its lonely steppes, the barren landscape of Fars Province provides a stark contrast to the vibrancy and hospitality of its inhabitants.

Day 5: Eghlid

Perched between the desert and the mountains, the town of Eghlid acted as the main gateway from the north to Persepolis in ancient times.

Day 6: Caravanserai Zein-o-Din

Situated in the desolate Dasht-e Lut desert, Zein-o-din is a classic small caravanserai built during the 16th century under the orders of Shah Abbas, who constructed such hostels to promote business.

Days 7-8: Yazd

The ancient desert city of Yazd was a major stop on the caravan routes to Central Asia and India during the Silk Road period and it retains a rustic feel.

Days 9-11: Esfahan

The pearl in the Persian crown, Esfahan is quite simply one of the finest places in the Islamic world with a wealth of fine mosaic-tiled buildings and an enormous bazaar.

Day 12: Abyaneh

Nestled at the foot of Mt Karkus, Abyaneh features houses that are arranged in a stair-step shape. Many of their doors are carved with beautiful patterns and poems.

Day 13: Kashan

Home to some of the finest traditional houses in Iran, Kashan is a beautiful oasis city with a very long history - human settlements here date back to the 4th millennium BC.

Days 14-15: Tehran

A visit to Tehran is a true cultural experience: explore teeming bazaars, chaotic streets, a host of interesting museums, and the superb Golestan Palace with its exquisite marbled terraces and artistic treasures.
