Familiarity with various Iran desert tours
In Iran, we have different deserts, most of which are located in the center of our country. Few people know about Iran desert tours and know which deserts are suitable for tourism. So join us to get to know three of the most beautiful deserts in Iran better.
Mesr desert tour
Mesr desert is located in Isfahan province. This desert which is located 45 km from Jandagh, is one of the most beautiful and largest deserts in Iran. Most people who love Iran desert tours, come to this desert and participate in various off-road or desert tourism camps. In this vast desert, there is almost no special vegetation. However, a variety of organisms live in this warm climate and among quicksands. This desert is in a short distance from Isfahan, so it is very popular with tourists.
Mesr desert tour is held for two and a half days and you can also taste the desert night. Accommodation in Eco-lodges and old caravansary will be in the desert and three meals will be provided by Chiyakotravel.
Karakal Desert Tour
Karakal desert is located in Yazd Province, near Bafgh. It is interesting to know that the name of this desert is taken from a unique species of cats that unfortunately their generation is endangered. This beautiful feline which looks like a large wild cat with black ears, lives in this area, and if you are lucky, you can see this species close on the Karakal Desert Tour. There are various deserts around Yazd which are really amazing and worth a visit.
Yazd is one of the ancient regions of Iran. That is why you should expect to see many historical places in this area. In this trip, you can visit the old water reservoir as well as Bagherabad Castle. There is also a welfare complex in Karakal that you can count on during your trip.
Karakal desert tour is two and a half days. In this tour, you can spend the night inside the Eco-lodges and enjoy the cool breeze of the desert nights. Seeing the stars in the desert is also an experience you never want to end.
Varzeneh Desert Tour
Varzaneh desert tour is one of the attractive tours of Chiyakotravel. Varzaneh desert is located in the south of Isfahan province, and due to its geographical location and lack of knowledge about this region, Varzaneh desert is more pristine than other deserts. Varzaneh desert has local accommodations and newly built camps that can make your stay in the starry nights of the desert.

Things to do in Iran desert tours
There are a lot of things to do while you are in any of Iran desert tours. Enjoying the nice weather of desert, star watching in nights and many other adventurous activities that will be unique and special for you. In the below, we suggest you what you can do during Iran desert tours.
Walking on hot desert sands barefoot
One of the most beautiful pastimes you can experience in the desert is walking barefoot on the hot sands of the desert. You should know that if the heat of the sand burns the soles of your feet, you can put your foot under the sand to feel the coolness of the ground. This may not make sense, but direct sunlight heats the layer on the sand, and you can prevent your foot from burning by dipping your foot under it. This is an experience that you can only experience in the desert.
Types of off-road riding in Iran desert tours
Undoubtedly, one of the most enjoyable parts of desert tours is off-road riding. You can experience the thrill of off-road vehicles and go up and down the dunes. Even if you do not have the skills to drive on these hills, you can ride in off-road vehicles and allow the driver to heighten your excitement. It is also possible to rent four-wheeled off-road engines to easily experience the thrill of off-road.
Skiing and gliding on quicksand
Desert sands are very fluid. That’s why those who are interested in sports, on snowboards or skiing, climb the sand dunes. But if you just want to get a taste of this exciting experience, all you have to do is sit on a wooden or plastic board and slide down. You will gain so much speed that it will be difficult for you to breathe. This is one of the most enjoyable and exciting desert tourism experiences in Iran.
Riding camel
In some deserts of Iran, such as Mesr desert, the desert of Karakal, you can ride a camel for a few minutes for a small amount of money, and in addition to the thrill of high altitude riding, take attractive photos for your Instagram. The cost of riding a camel is usually borne by the traveler, and those who wish to use this entertainment must pay the costs themselves.
Gathering by the fire and night ceremonies
One of the mainstays of any Iran desert tours is gathering by the fire and the nightly rituals and games performed by people on the tour at night. In this ceremony, in addition to eating food and drinks, people stand around the fire, and sometimes the ceremony continues with live music.
ATV riding in the desert
One of the fascinating pastimes that exists in a small number of deserts in Iran is ATV or four-wheeled motorcycling. The fun of this activity is in extreme acceleration. The presence of guides of this device greatly reduces the dangers of this fun. This entertainment is usually optional and the cost is separate from the cost of the tour.
Why travel with a tour?
It is possible to get lost in the desert. In some parts of the deserts of Iran, even mobile GPS will not work and you will need a more accurate device or guide.
Traveling to the desert can be very dangerous for people who are traveling alone. Travel to the deserts of Iran is recommended only in groups.

Preparing simple necessities such as water and snacks in the desert can be difficult, and tours provide everything for you.
