As a Tour Manager, I’ve escorted travelers around Iran numerous times since 2009, finding a country that is warm and welcoming to foreigners. Here are some of my must-see Iran sights:

  1. Persepolis
  2. Alborz Mountains in Tehran
  3. Crown Jewels Museum in Tehran
  4. Isfahan’s Famous Bridges
  5. Iran’s Bazaars

Explore Persepolis, one of the most important sites of the Ancient World. Everyone who visits Persepolis should pause at the Gate of All Nations and imagine being an important guest awaiting an audience with Darius II, the great Achaemenian King who ordered the construction of Persepolis. Though a royal audience is not a feature of MIR tours to Iran, every visitor who chooses to see Iran with his or her own eyes – and not through the lens of the media – is making an important choice.
