Hi

I'm trying to find out information about Dohezar Valley in the north of Iran. It isn't in the Lonely Planet book.

Could someone let me know how far it is from Ramsar, how to get there from Ramsar, what the accommodation is like and how to get around there.

Also, is Anzali Lagoon worth going to?

Thank you very much.

Hello everybody,

I´m going to Iran soon for about 3 weeks and this is my itinerary:
Tehran - Esfahan - Yazd - Kerman (trips to Mahan + Rayen) - Shiraz (Persepolis) - Kashan - Qom - Tehran.

Is there anything else you´d recommend to see within this loop? I don´t want to go north of Tehran as I don´t want to push it too much.

Thanks a lot,
Ch.

I know the question of visa approval and rival agencies has been well exhausted on different threads, but I am looking for information from someone who has been in/knows of someone in a similar predicament. I'm a Canadian student hoping to be travelling individually, entering overland from Turkey. I'll be using a service (iranianvisa, key2persia, etc.) hopefully to obtain the auth#, but I was wondering if someone knows if applying as a Canadian student travelling alone is a lost cause (from what…

My partner and I have just spent 2 months in Iran as part of our much longer journey across Asia. We found the Iran LP well out-of-date with regards to prices so I thought I'd provide some information for anyone about to go - although we heard that a new book is on the horizon. The following is a list of the places we visited and where we stayed and prices (in rials).

Tabriz - Ark Hotel, 200,000 rials for double with bathroom and heating (it was Feb and bloody cold)
Tehran - stayed in a couple…

Hi there

Firstly apologies - yes, I could google and yes I could ready my copy of LP Iran, but I'd prefer suggestions from a real life kicking and screaming human being.

I am coming to Iran on Thursday. Travelling with a friend for 10 days but because of last minute business commitments he is coming 24 hours later than planned which means I have all Thursday free to wander around Tehran on my own.

Not speaking a word or Farsi, and slightly worrying about all the cr*ppy stereotypes that I've…

hi,

I just called again the Imam Khoemini Airport Immigration and they finally were able to verify and confirm that both Irish and Australian citizens now in fact do qualify for and could receive the 15-day instant visa. Make sure you tell the Immigration officer when checking your passport, that Ireland is NOT part of UK. I am not kidding. The clerk i talked to had this weird notion that Ireland was still part of Great Britain, and had to get back to his boss before answering my question!

I shall arrive at Teheran Imam Khomeini airport about 3pm. Is it possible to catch the train to Ahvaz at 5pm?
Is there already a metro connection from the airport? I suppose to go by taxi ( how much do they charge?)
takes too much time. There is a bus also serving Ahvaz (about 9pm),but is it possible to make a reservation? Thanks for your answer. Sunsail
