Advice to Visit Kurdistan Villages

Salaam all, I am Shahul from Malaysia. This will me my second time visiting Iran and I am very much keen to explore the Kurdistan Region. But the information over the internet is quite sparse. I will be visiting with another friend and interested to go to villages like Hawraman, Palangan and so on. We will be coming from Esfahan.

Will it be better go to Sanandaj or Kermanshah as a starting point.?
How can we get to the villages? shall we hire a private car or just take the shared minivan (if any) but we do not know from where to take it.
Is there accommodation or CS couch available in any of the village? We would like to spent at least one night in one of the place.

Thank you very much for your advice. Khoda Hafez, Shahul

Hi Shahul 1-you,ld better to come to Sanandaj or Kermanshah at first,there is no direct flight from Isfahan to Kermanshah or Sanandaj but you can have a connection flight from isfahan to tehran and then Kermanshah or sanandaj, you should take the ticket a few days earlier. If you dont want to go by flight you can take a bus from Isfahan to Kermanshah or Sananadaj. the price must be about 10 USD and take about 9 to 10 hours. you can choose each one of these two cities based on which place on Howraman u would like to go. 2-from kermanshah or Sanandaj to places in Huwraman you can hire car or use minibus that is cheaper. 3- I don't think u can find CS host in the villages but in the bigger cities like Kermanshah or Sanandaj you have a lot of opportunity . but you can find some houses or rooms in the village to rent or may be they host you for free.
for more information u can text me directly. Have a good trip.
