American?
For me, as an American, the answer is no. I had to book a tour through a recognized Iranian travel agent, they shepherded me through the visa process and then supplied a specially trained guide who did give us al the freedom we could possibly ask for. For other nationalities, the laws vary . . . hope that helps Art!

enquiries about package and travel plan...
It appears beautiful from the photographs. What type of packages are available. How to reach Hodko Resorts, Bhuj from Nagpur.

Getting there . . .
My trip was way back in 2006. I went by train to Bhuj (I was living in Mumbai). And then the Hodko folk picked me up and transferred me to Hodko. I was curious whether the place still existed because it had started with outside grant money to the local communities. And the grant money was set to expire soon when I was there. So I did a search and found its still there, and seems to be stronger than ever, having bookings available through Nivalink. http://www.nivalink.com/shamesarhad/index.html

This post is amazing! I never knew this artwork and architecture existed in Cyprus. Gives it that much more culture. What was your favourite part? Will you be returning soon?

My time in the Gobi was a stop along the way on the Trans Mongolian train trip - Beijing to Moscow. So its sort of hard to price out separately. Sorry! It was an incredible corner of the world, well worth seeing!
