My friend and I took a classical Iran tour with Destination Iran. This involved Destination Iran arranging a driver/guide ans an 9 day itinerary. I would thoroughly recommend Destination Iran for any person interested in visiting the fascinating country. In particular Rahman was very attentive and always was keen to help and was very quick in replying, if we had any queries. Go to Iran you will not regret it.
Thank you very much Fergal. It’s a pleasure to get to know you. I’m so happy I could see you and Jim in Iran although it was only for a very short time.
What a wonderful trip! We learned of Destination Iran through a friend. Rahman personally arranged our tour and visa, and we were delighted with his friendliness, his professionalism, and his determination to make sure that we had a great experience in Iran. He also set us up with the best imaginable private tour guide. I hope we will return to Iran some day–and, if we do, we will definitely contact Destination Iran.
Thank you Mike for your kind message.
It’s great to know you’ve enjoyed your trip to our country.
I should also appreciate your patience with us as some situations were not completely under our control and required waiting a bit longer than what you’re used to. However, your professional attitude and experience in understanding different workflows in different countries helped us deliver our services as promised.
I will be more than happy to help you experience another Iran’s trip.
As we had only 6 days for the trip, Rahman recommended tours that covered Shiraz, Tehran, and Esfahan. Although it was a short trip, we were blown away by the rich history of the Persian Empire and the archaeological evidences it left behind. We visited Persepolis and Tomb of Cyrus the great, just to list a few. Rahman is extremely knowledgeable in Iranian culture and history. We were introduced to some of the famous poets such as Hafez, Sa’dy and Rumi and what their poetry speaks of.
All in all, Destination Iran tour packages s are something I would definitely recommend, as Rahman is quick to reply to emails, and addresses all our concerns in making sure the trip is a positive and memorable experience for us.
Thank you Nuraida for your kind comments. In fact, 6 days is a very short amount of time like you’ve mentioned it. That’s why we call that package “Iran Highlights Tour”!
Hopefully, on your next tour, we can cover more of Iran and its attractions.
Rahman was our guide for a two-week trip in Iran. It’s hard to imagine a better guide. His English is excellent, his interests are broad, and his knowledge is deep.
The trip was carefully planned, but Rahman was flexible: when something interesting but not on the agenda occurred, time was made for us to enjoy it — old men singing under a bridge in Isfahan, a lively modern restaurant in Shiraz, quickly planned lunch in an Iranian home on the road.
He accommodated our group’s (six people) interest in food; we were given regional specialties everywhere. Rahman did not have memorized speeches, but simply talked about sites, architecture, history, and life in Iran. He did not use notes — except for identifying the visiting groups carved in Persepolis. He apologized for having to use the notes there!!
His interest in the architecture was catching. He was open to all questions. His task as guide was certainly made easier by the beauty of the country and the friendliness of the Iranians that we met.
My wife and I have traveled and worked abroad for decades. This was, however, one of the best trips ever.
The trip with you was also one of the most enjoyable ones for me too. You remember the details so well.
I feel relieved when I see people like you have enjoyed their trip to Iran.
It’ll be great to travel with you again.
I traveled to Iran for two weeks with several friends a few years ago, and Rahman was our guide. It really was the journey of lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of Iran as a destination and Rahman as a guide.
The sights are marvelous in the true meaning of the word, the landscapes vast and changing, the people warm and friendly – the whole trip was a complete eye opener. In particular, Rahman is a wonderful guide – his depth of knowledge about his country is extraordinary, and spans its deep history and culture through to its modern life, and he organised everything superbly with great attention to detail.
I intend to return to Iran, as it is such a vast country with so much to see and experience. If you haven’t been, go now – and make sure you plan your Iran trip with Rahman, as you could not have a better guide to this fascinating country.
Thank you Sarah. I cannot thank you enough for all the kind words.
BTW, you said you wanted to go back to Iran for another visit. This is fantastic. I look forward to meeting you again.
My wife and I took a classical tour in Iran in May of 2017. We had a wonderful , sometimes exhausting – but very interesting tour. We both loved the country, the friendly people, good food and fantastic historical sites.
We’ve had an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge about Iran; past and present. He took very good care of us.
We would like to recommend this tour – and especially Rahman as a guide.
Thank you for your kind words Steinar. I’m very happy to hear that you’ve had a good time with us in Iran.
I hope to see you again and have more fun and quality time together.
My husband and I visited Iran for our honeymoon in April 2018, with a perfect itinerary put together by Rahman (who was not our guide, although we did have the pleasure of meeting him during our trip). The Iran tour package offered to us was incredible, we loved everywhere from Tehran to Ahwaz (and the nearby towns of Shush and Shushtar which will take your breath away), Shiraz and Persepolis, Esfahan, Kashan and Yazd and our lovely homestay in the tiny desert village of Toudeshk-Cho (and all of the magical little places we stopped off at on the way).
There is not a single part of our Iran trip that we would have changed, although than perhaps having more time in Iran! There is history everywhere, and aside from the amazing art, architecture and history that is everywhere – the Persian food is delicious and the people are incredibly friendly. We cannot wait to go back one day.
It was a great pleasure to communicate with you during the preparatory period before the tour as well as the meeting during your tour.
I’m very happy to know that you’ve enjoyed your trip. I appreciate your kind words and hope to see you soon in Iran on a different route to explore more amazing experiences with you.
Central Parts of Iran can be very frustrating in summer. I recommend taking a tour to the west of Iran in this season.
It all depends on how passionate you are about your goals. I’ve traveled to the towns and cities at the edge of deserts in mid July with international travelers when I was a tour guide. It’s tough, but can be rewarding.
Of course, with the higher amount of UV this year (2024), it’s better to visit other parts of Iran instead.
