Custom Itinerary & MFA Route Approval
We turn your dates and interests into a costed, day-by-day route — and for US, UK and Canadian travelers, file it as the fixed itinerary the Foreign Ministry must approve.
'Please check my itinerary' threads fill the forum: how many days for the classic Tehran-Kashan-Isfahan-Yazd-Shiraz route (about two weeks; closer to three with Tabriz, the desert or the Gulf), night train or flight, is Tabriz worth it, what will it cost. For US, UK and Canadian travelers the itinerary is more than a plan — it is a fixed, MFA-approved document your guide must follow, filed with your visa. We design the route with you day by day around your dates, pace and interests — architecture, deserts, nomads, food — cost it transparently line by line, and where your nationality requires it we handle the Foreign Ministry approval. Other nationalities get the same planning with no lock-in, free to change their minds on the road, with Nowruz crowds, Ramadan hours and summer heat factored in.

Questions travelers ask
Should I avoid visiting Iran during Ramadan or Nowruz?
Neither ruins a trip, but both change it. During Ramadan, eating or drinking in public during daylight is off-limits and restaurant and site opening hours shift, so plan meals and visits around that; Ramadan follows the lunar calendar, so check which dates it covers in your travel window. Nowruz, the Persian New Year around 21 March, is festive and beautiful — but the whole country travels at once, so transport sells out and popular sites book solid. If you want the Nowruz atmosphere, reserve trains, flights and hotels well ahead; if you want quiet sightseeing, choose different weeks.
When is the best time of year to visit Iran?
Spring (mid-March to May) and autumn (September to November) are the sweet spots, with mild weather across most of the country. Summer is punishing in the central deserts and the south; winter suits skiing near Tehran or warm days on the Persian Gulf coast. Two calendar flags: Nowruz, around 21 March, brings wonderful celebrations but packed transport and booked-out sites, and Ramadan — whose dates move each year — shifts eating and opening hours, so check where it falls for your trip. For any specific city, check the live per-city weather on our destination pages rather than relying on averages.
