Mahan & Shahdad Desert Tour

Accept the warm welcome of Kerman’s morning sun! Off we go from your Kerman accommodation toward Mahan (around 72 km). At its Shah Nimatullah Wali’s Shrine enjoy the architectural beauty of the burial place of this Persian Sufi master and poet. Also have a ride toward the elegant epitome of paradisal Persian gardens, the UNESCO-listed Shazdeh Garden.

Have another short ride (50 kilometers) through the beautiful desert to pay a visit to the 1000-year-old cypress tree in Sirch Village, an oasis that contrasts its surrounding hot desert with its pleasant weather and the lovely view of its trees. On route to Shafi Abad Village, stop by to see one of the world’s tallest kinds of Nebka trees, fostered by Lut Desert. Then move on to catch a sight of the splendid mud-brick facade of Shafi Abad Caravanserai, a historical caravanserai built in the heart of Shahdad Desert as a refuge for travelers.

Looking forward to finally seeing the popular destination of desert lovers, Shahdad Desert? Hit the desert again and here you are at the Kaluts of Shahdad. Wonder at the supernatural beauty of these constantly changing sandy towers in the middle of endless desert and free your mind in the silent peace of the desert. To wrap up the journey before heading back to Kerman, the Kaluts will bless you with an incredible view of the sunset and the desert will make you fall in love with the sparkle of its starry night.
