Unveiling the Hidden Treasures of Mesopotamia
Frequently known as the cradle of civilization, Iraq is a land of ancient past, deep spirituality, contemporary revival and survival. Here, under the golden sands, and on the nourishing rivers of Tigris and Euphrates, the history of mankind was penned. And yet, Iraq is not merely a place; it is an emotion – to cherish and recall. The nation is full of resources for those who long to venture into the very cradle of civilization and culture.

Whether you are a curious historian, a spiritual seeker, or an adventurous traveler, there’s a tour that fits your desire to connect with Iraq’s profound legacy.
The 10-Day Iraq Guided Tour provides a strong introduction to the country’s most famous attractions.
