Meet us up at your hotel in Shiraz and have a 105-kilometer road trip toward the impressive Palace of Ardashir (UNESCO heritage). Take a walk in the 1800-year-old palace and check out the remains of its grand domes and high Iwans (arch).

Then make your way toward another of the earliest treasures of the founder of Sasanian Empire, the UNESCO-listed Qaleh Dokhtar (The Maiden Castle). The ruined fortress and its still elegant gateway, tower, halls, arches and domes are now accessible through a stone staircase (30 minutes of stair climbing).

Looking forward to discovering the charms of authentic nomadic life? Move on to find your Qashqai hosts living their simple lives in nature. Begin your exploration of their lovely lifestyle until lunchtime when they serve you with delicious local dishes cooked on fire. Luck may have it that you get to see the nomads collect eggs, milk cows, churn Mashk, spin wool, sing, weave, make fire and cook.

Then have some time to enjoy the peace of the surrounding nature and the intact culture of these unpretentious people. At sunset, see one of the beauties of pastoral life: the sweet moment when the little lambs that have stayed in the stable for the whole day rush to reunite with their mothers that have returned from their graze.

In the peace of the night, enjoy the warmth of a friendly gathering around a cozy campfire while listening to the nomads tell you tales of pastoral life. Then head back to Shiraz with a sweet smile that the adorable nomadic life has brought to your face.
