Erbil, capitol and largest city of Iraqi Kurdistan, never fails to amaze! Super rich with its ancient heritage, this middle eastern gem is located 350 km from Baghdad on a stretch of fertile lands between Greater and Lesser Zab rivers. Despite the troubled neighborhood, Kurdistan remained calm and safe oasis, with unprecedented growth over last couple of years - you ll find a bustling, modern city behind the ancient buildings. While there is a plenty to see in the city, we will take time to visit the surrounded mountains and villages for some of breath-taking sceneries, local culture and Kurdish traditions.
