A Rail Journey Through Iran
The Persian Caravan Train was designed as a multi-city rail journey combining overnight travel with guided sightseeing. Its published itinerary connected major cultural destinations including Isfahan, Yazd, Kerman, Pasargadae and Persepolis.
What the 2017 Service Offered
At the time, the train was promoted with sleeping cabins, dining facilities, onboard attendants and guided excursions at selected stops. Because these details are historical, travelers should not treat them as a description of a currently operating service.
For broader planning, see SURFIRAN’s Yazd travel guide and Pasargadae guide.
