Hi there, has anyone been on the Imaginative Traveller 15-day Iran tour? I'm considering it but it covers more than other tours of similar length so I'm concerned it might be too rushed.

The agenda is:
Day 1 - TEHRAN
Day 2 - TEHRAN
Day 3 - KERMAN
Day 4 - YAZD
Day 5 - PASARGAD – SHIRAZ
Day 6 - SHIRAZ – PERSEPOLIS
Day 7 - ESFAHAN
Day 8 - ESFAHAN
Day 9 - ESFAHAN
Day 10 - NATANZ – ABYANEH VILLAGE
Day 11 - KASHAN - QOM – HAMADAN
Day 12 - KERMANSHAH – SANANDAJ
Day 13 - TAKHT-E SOLEIMAN - ZANJAN
Day 14 - ZANJAN - TEHRAN
Day 15 - TEHRAN

Hi - we are leaving on this tour on July 20. Depending on when you are thinking of booking, you can always message me during or after and I can let you how it is. Also, our local travel agent told us that the Sanandaj part is possibly changed or cancelled, with a visit to Bandar-e-Anzali on the Caspian Sea instead. No idea why - but thought I would let you know.

We have travelled to other countries with Imaginative Traveller twice before and been very satisfied. Busy, but not unreasonably so. Generally good value for money - although no doubt you can do it cheaper yourself, for people like us who are too busy and on a limited time schedule to plan our own way, it's been well worth the money.

Muhammad,

Are you licensed to guide American tourists? I am looking for an affordable private guide in December for 1 or 2 weeks. Let me know if you are interested.

stuff going on a 'tour' just get your visa and travel on your own steam. It worked for me.

Musafir,

Do you mean you just got a tour in order to get the visa, and then ditched the tour to travel solo??? Really? Does that work? Are you a US citizen?
