The best time to do this tour:
March, April, and May are in the peak season of the year. It is mild, clear weather in most of Iran.
Many travelers not just from Iran, but also from all over the world are eager to travel to Iran. For those who like to have a more relaxing time and stay in cozy places, we do not suggest this time, especially at the beginning of the New Year. For those who would prefer to see more people and crowded places, this is the best time of the year, BUT they need to be more flexible with the hotels and rooms. As it is the peak season, many hotels are already booked, so that is why we need our clients either to be more flexible or to confirm the tour sooner so that we can book the rooms they have asked for.
For those who seek a more affordable fee, quiet sights, more relaxing time, and less hustle and bustle visits, we do recommend June, July, and August.
As these months are in the low season, we can have special offers for them of the same quality.
We do not suggest that you travel to Iran in the north & west of Iran in the winter because it is too cold.
