As the sun rises over the stunning Zagros Mountains, you find yourself amidst a landscape that whispers tales of history, legends, and breathtaking natural beauty. Your first stop is the Qal'eh Dokhtar, a majestic castle that proudly stands as a testament to ancient architectural prowess. In the heart of this paradise lies the eternal resting place of Ardeshir Babakan, the founder of the Sassanid Empire. As you continue your journey, the ruins of Gour and Sasan, remnants of ancient cities, come into view. The crowning jewel of your Firuzabad adventure is the tranquil waters of the Ardeshir Lake, reflecting the azure sky and the towering mountains that embrace it.

In Spring trekking and visiting Nomad is such a great idea and so recommended by our trekking lovers from Hong Kong, in Summer visiting waterfalls and water trekking in valleys is so joyful, in Autumn visiting the Apple gardens and trekking in autumn colored nature and in Winter you can ski in the closest ski resort to the equator! So based on the time you can do one of these activities, or combine them with horse-back riding, visiting rural regions, schools and have lunch and dinner with a local family. Overnight in Shiraz.

Full-day excursion to Persepolis, the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid kings. Then visit Necropolis where you visit Zoroastrian fire temple, Royal tombs. Overnight Shiraz. How Indescribable walking through the Achaemenes settlement. Imagine when you are walking there, it throws you out to the future, not to the past. In fact, we discovered what the ancestors had achieved many years ago. Until now, there is no proof of slavery on the carvings of Persepolis but it is only a sign of peace, culture, gathering and friendship between all ethnic groups and nations of that time. On the eastern staircase, we can see 23 nationalities of the world. It still has shown the unity and equality of all religions and races. It is wonderful to know our ancestors had female engineers and they were paid even during pregnancy. To know more about the architecture there. This monument has a unique architecture. Overnight Shiraz.

Your first destination is the awe-inspiring rock reliefs of Bishapur, where the skill of ancient craftsmen comes to life before your eyes. Stepping onto the grounds of the ancient city of Bishapur itself is like entering a forgotten world. The ruins of grand palaces, intricate mosaics, and sturdy columns transport you back to the heyday of the Sassanid Empire. As you walk among these vestiges of a once-thriving civilization, you can almost hear the echoes of ancient footsteps and imagine the vibrant life that once filled these streets. As the sun dips below the horizon and paints the sky in hues of orange and pink, you return from your journey through Bishapur, carrying with you the memories of a day spent in the embrace of ancient wonders. This day tour is not just a historical exploration; it's a soul-stirring experience that connects you with the enduring spirit of Iran's past. Overnight in Shiraz.
