About this Tour

Day trips from Isfahan are very famous for Iran travellers because of the different highlights which surround this metropolitan. Desert sightseeing is one of the first options Iran travellers always consider. Varzaneh desert is the nearest place we can have a true desert experience when we are in Isfahan or Yazd.

Varzaneh is one of the oldest civilizations, about 5000-years-old, shaped near the famous river named Zayhande-rood. Since the desert is very close to Varzaneh village and it takes only 10 minutes to get there, it’s one of the safest deserts and the most accessible one you can spend amazing times and make a unique experience out of it.
