Planning a trip to Iran and would love some first hand info from anyone who has been there. Looking more for historical, scenic places to visit. Any tips for must see places, specially hotels and areas to stay at, food etc? TIA.

When are you planning to visit? I’m sure it may be chillier in winter if not cold. :madz: @Deeba1234 would tell more

I was there in February.. When are you going? Are you staying in Tehran or travelling around the country to other places like Shiraz and Isfahan?

They don’t accept any of our western credit or debit cards so you should take plenty of cash with you, that’s probably the most important thing.. The people are lovely, really hospitable and it’s very safe.. We used to walk around at 1/2 in the morning and never got any hassle.. Iran is one of those countries people are always nervous about visiting because of its international reputation but out of all the Muslim countries I’ve been to it’s been by far the easiest and most enjoyable.. You can see the sanctions have hit hard as Tehran itself looks poor (except for the exclusive northern part) but the culture and experience is just amazing.. I’m hoping to visit again this Xmas..

Awesome , but where are the pics? You know we’ve a seperate sticky for the travel pics:
