@Amin: As we mention above, we did visit Tabriz. Really enjoyed our time there. We spent a couple of days based in the city and went to visit Kandovan and the Armenian church near Jolfa.

hi…
how about visiting Tabriz city! I had started to read non Iranian people Experience’s about visiting Iran
& I found that most of them are just for cities like tehren ‘shiraz & esfahan! but you should know that tabriz city is as impotent as that 3!
why?
because:
1. It’s one of the oldest cities (more than 3500 years!!! like shiraz)
2.Choice for most beautiful city in Iran by UNESCO (!)

Thank you for this insight on Iran, the beautiful pictures and the amazing reports. We will most probably do the same loop over Easter: Teheran – Isfahan – Yazd – Shiraz.
One question: you write that US citizens must be in a group. Is it especially US citizens? We have already asked, and European Citizens can travel on their own… Or did I miss something

Cheers
Gilles

@Gilles: Sounds like a great trip you have planned! Yes, the restriction on group travel is only for US citizens. As far as I know, European citizens can travel independently around the country. Enjoy!

@Sebastiaan: Couldn’t agree more. Thanks for your thoughtful comment!

@Max: Not sure if it’s possible to eat more kebab 🙂 Glad to hear you had such a good visit three years ago.

@Hamid: So glad that this helped you with your recent visit to Iran and Shiraz with your family. We loved that city – people were so friendly and warm.

You made it clear again. People connect People, not politics. Iran is a great country to discover!
