Overview
Taste Iran with all five senses. This 7-day foodie journey takes you through Shiraz, Yazd, and Isfahan—three cities full of history, flavors, and warm hospitality. From icy desserts in Shiraz to sweet pastries in Yazd and the famous Beryani of Isfahan, every stop tells a story.
What is the story behind this tour?
This tour was inspired by travelers who discovered Iran not through museums first, but through food.
In Shiraz, a small bowl of Faludeh—cold, sweet, and tangy—sparked endless curiosity about gardens, poetry, and daily life. In Yazd, learning to fold Qottab pastries became a lesson about caravans crossing the desert and families welcoming strangers. And in Isfahan, tasting the traditional Beryani felt like touching centuries of culture in one bite.
The Foodie Sensory Tour was born to keep this spirit alive: food as a story, flavors as memory, and every dish as a key to culture.
