image 650 365 3

Cultural Heritage Desk Sports, Recreational and Tourism Complex of Kish Safari has been established to develop tourism and create a fun and safe environment for all ages, especially young people and tourists to the beautiful island of Kish in the Persian Gulf. The complex is the first organizer of desert safari tours in Iran.

One of the most popular types of safari tours is Desert Tour which traverses the desert and wilderness. Types of vehicles used for these kinds of tours include two-differential and four-axle vehicles such as Land Rover and Toyota Land Cruiser as well as camel. Hot and dry desert and semi-desert climatic conditions are required for a desert tour.

In view of its suitable weather conditions and location for tourism, Kish Island has the potential to hold such types of tours.

Recreational features of this complex include an indoor restaurant, an outdoor restaurant and a coffee shop as well as handicrafts exhibition pavilions which provide and introduce various regions of Iran.

Managing director of Kish Safari Complex, Alireza Qorsi, said safari generally makes use of natural hills. Since Kish does not have natural hills, man-made mounds have been created for the purpose, he added.

Over 23 games and entertainments have been incorporated in the complex since mid-March 2016, he said.

He said Kish Safari Complex was warmly received by holidaymakers during Norouz vacation.

Such kind of complexes boost tourism industry, he added.

Somayyeh Talebzadeh, who has traveled to Kish Island with her friends, said: "Good facilities have been created for entertainment. It has good recreational environment for women."

Reza Shadmani, who traveled to the island with his wife, said: "I had a memorable experience of safari tourism. Its secure and healthy environment was important for us."

Kish Safari Complex can prevent the outflow of hard currency, he added.
