Iran

“Iran is a surprising country and almost all of the surprises are pleasant! From all the media reports we get, no-one could be blamed for going there with at least some trepidation, but my experiences confirm those of Timeless travellers who have been there in recent years. The Iranian people are warm and welcoming, there is no hostility to foreigners (outside the official media), the historical sites, museums, bazaars and handicrafts are fantastic, accommodation is excellent, cheap and varied, there are no safety concerns day or night in the parts of Iran where tourists want to visit and food is plentiful, fresh and varied.” Tom, November 2010
Welcome to the Iran section of our website!
In 2010 we added Iran to our destinations and this has opened up a great opportunity to the interested traveller!
We have sent several passengers to Iran on individually tailored itineraries and our group tour, Ozturk Treasures of Persia.
We have established a great relationship with an excellent operator.
