Such a fantastic tour! I was unsure about traveling to Iran as a solo female, but I felt confident going with SurfIran. Hamed in SurfIran was extremely helpful in assisting me to secure a travel visa, travel insurance, and in answering all of my queries to prepare me. He was even helpful in tailoring the tour to my needs (as I could not arrive on the first day in Tehran) and I was still welcomed at the airport by a different guide to take me to the hotel and get set up in Shiraz. The tour was fantastic. I had Mehdi as the guide and he was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and skilled. He opened up the prehistory, the history, the culture and the people of Iran to me. I have to emphasise how safe I felt in Iran, and how friendly and genuine to people were. The accommodations were lovely, the food was fantastic, and the archaeological and historical sites and architecture were so impressive. More than that, I fell in love with the mountains and deserts - I will surely be returning to explore these as soon as I can! I highly recommend SurfIran - they exceeded my expectations, as did the country and people of Iran. Travel tips: be sure to bring USD/Euro/AUS currency with you to exchange for Iranian rials and be sure to have a good VPN on your phone so you can access foreign websites and accounts (your bank, Paypal, Revolute, etc.) - with these logistics sorted in advance you will have a smooth trip. Also: if you're nearby (Georgia, Armenia, etc.) - why not visit head to Iran, it's so close and so easy! Thanks to the team for a memorable trip! Robin (Canadian/Irish, 47yr old, solo traveler)
