City of Ancient Civilization
Rise and shine early in the morning, because en route to Kashan we’ll take you to see the impossible: the Shrine of Emam Khomeini. Then we'll get the original Sohan (a saffron toffee) to snack on throughout the trip. Once in Kashan, we’re going to visit the Fin Garden, the shining star of all Persian gardens and also a UNESCO World Heritage site. We’ll also take you to see the most beautiful and charming historical houses in Iran, and while we’re there, we’ll visit the ancient Yakhchāl (coolers) of Jalali Castle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I share rooms or I will have private rooms?
Your rooms will be private rooms with private bathrooms.
Can I change or modify this itinerary?
Our daily plans within each city are mere suggestions from our travel experts, but once you arrive at any city, you’re free to pick and choose those attractions and activities that interest you the most, without any prior notice or planning. But if you want to change the main framework and schedule of the itinerary (e.g. add extra days or exclude some cities) contact our support team at [email protected].
In which languages is this private tour available?
Our private tours are available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Arabic, and Chinese. But, if you want a guide fluent in a language not specified here, let us know and we’ll do our best to find the perfect person for you.
Do I get any free time?
Yes. Since this is not a group tour, but a private tour just for you, you are free to pick and choose those attractions and activities that interest you the most, and our guides will do their best to fulfill your wishes. So you can ask for as much free time as you want in each city.
What is the required dress code?
Ladies need a scarf to cover their hair, a more-or-less long shirt that covers their arms and comes down to just above their hips, and long pants that come down to their ankles. How skinny or baggy you want your clothing to be is entirely up to you. Within those bounds, get as creative and colorful as you wish!
For gentlemen, shorts and sleeveless shirts are a no-no. Everything else is completely fine!
How far in advance do I need to book my trip?
The sooner you book your trip, the higher your chances of finding better hotels available, especially during high seasons such as April, May, September, and October, when good hotels and driver-guides have been sold out for months.
That’s why we recommend you book your trip at least 3 months in advance.
