Vegetarianism in travel and vegetarian travelers: 

Whether we want or not, our lifestyle and eating habits will be effective in our travel. Sometimes some of our trips are planned to enjoy the food we can eat at the destination.

If you would like to go on a trip as a vegan, you need to consider this issue when you want to choose a travel destination and make sure how much the place you choose to travel is friendly-vegetarian.

Vegetarianism is one of the food diets in which there are no animal products such as meat, dairy, eggs, and Gelatinous products.

The important point here is that recently some vegetarians are showing up among Iranian, but it is not that common in Iran. But due to the geographical location of our country, you can taste lots of various traditional foods that are made of a variety of ingredients from all kinds of meat and chicken to different vegetables.

So if you are a vegetarian and decide to travel to Iran, you should prepare yourself by considering this issue that especial food of your eating habit may not always be available, or it may be hard to find. No doubt, you won’t be able to find a vegetarian dish or special restaurant for vegetarians in all cities. But do not worry, some restaurants for those who are vegetarian opened in the main cities like Tehran, Shiraz, and Isfahan. If you can’t find these kinds of restaurants, you can go to the restaurant and order the food which is more close to your taste. Some of this food is:

Kashk-e Bademjan, Boorani Bademjan, Yatimcheh, Dampokht Gojeh, Do Piazeh Aloo, Adasi, and Daal addas, Ash Reshteh, etc…

Eat and Learn

Due to the geographical location of our country, you can taste lots of various traditional foods favored by Iranian spices. There are many websites and a lot of essays in which you can find the recipe for Iranian food but if you would like to learn them professionally like a native, I propose you a package that is arranged specially for those who are interested in eating Iranian food and also learn them to cook it when they get back to their home. 

By getting this package, you will experience a mixture of culture, history, and Iranian traditional food as part of our culture. 

During your trip through our culinary tour, not only will you have the opportunity to have different local foods in each city, but you will also dine with a family, enjoy home-cooked Persian food and learn about different tastes and spices used in Iranian dishes. Additionally, you will have the chance to get familiar with anything you would like to know about their Iranian cuisine and lifestyle.

But if you are a person who doesn’t feel like cooking and you just prefer to enjoy eating, Let's Go Iran offers you to have a family dinner in a local house where you can experience friendly moments to eat with a local family. On this day, you will be invited by a nice Iranian family to join them for dinner and see the daily life of Iranians.
