Cultural Tours
Our exploring trips are much more than what are commonly known as cultural tours. Although they do not include any trekking, mountain biking or any other activities, they maintain a true sense of adventure and exploration. We aim to get under the skin of the country by sometimes going off the beaten track and discovering the less obvious places as well as the more established places of interest. These trips are put together in the true spirit explorers such as Marco Polo, Sir John Chardin, Jean Baptiste Tavernier, Henri Massé, Sven Anders Hedin, Alfons Gabriel, H. L. Rabino and Freya Stark. All of whom went to Iran at one time or another and whose footsteps we try to follow.As well as showing you all the must see places in Iran we also try to bridge the cultural divide by maximising contact with the local people. Sometimes staying with them, experiencing their hospitality and tasting their fine cuisine, which has remained largely unknown in the West.
