TRAVEL EXPERTISE

Through work and family trips, I have traveled to almost every part of Iran. In comparison to my international travels, no place matches Iran’s rich history, culture, food, and natural beauty. In a two-week trip to Iran, you can experience diverse landscapes from deserts and salt lakes to lush, wet mountains, along with the unique people, food, and history. Each destination offers a distinct experience, making every trip worthwhile.

TESTIMONIALS

Philip H, May 2024 – Tripadvisor

“My trip to Iran in May 2024 was a revelation. Despite initial concerns from friends, I found Iran to be a warm and welcoming country. The staff at SURFIRAN and our guides, Kourosh and Yasna, helped me navigate the complexities of travel in Iran. Yasna’s deep knowledge of Iranian customs and culture made the trip fascinating. Her efforts made our visit special and enjoyable.”

“I was in Iran with my travel mates Bea, Gloria, and Paola in September. We all agree that this journey was one of the most exciting and interesting we have ever done. SURFIRAN made it possible with great expertise and professionalism, from visa application to the end. Our extraordinary guide, Yasna (Princess Yasna, as we called her), was the best! We can’t wait to return to Iran with SURFIRAN and Yasna!”
