Taking Part in Kooch (Nomadic Seasonal Migration)

With the first breezes of disagreeable weather, the nomads move with all their animals and belongings toward more pleasant pastures.

THE BEST SEASON FOR AN IRAN NOMAD TOUR

However, considering that nomads move for more pleasant pastures, we are able to create nomadic experiences for you all year round.

WHERE TO FIND THE IRANIAN NOMADS

Every Iranian nomadic tribe migrates twice a year. And each tribe has its own special location and Kooch path.
