Overview

Isfahan Free Walking Tour | Armenian Quarter to Khajou Bridge

On this evening tour, we will check out Isfahan’s Armenian Quarter which is filled with amazing buildings that date back to the Safavid dynasty!

Buildings such as the Vank Cathedral which bears a  series of mesmerizing paintings  or “Sangtarash-Ha” which used to be a Zoroastrian neighborhood.

On our way, we will visit  two of the most iconic bridges from the Safavid Dynasty: Si-o-se pol and Khajou bridge. People of Isfahan are so fond of these heritages that tend to spend their free time by these bridges. There is even a famous phrase in Isfahani local dialect praising “By the Khajou Bridge” moments!

These bridges  have also provided an acoustic environment for music enthusiasts to perform traditional music and be heard by the people. During this incredible tour, there is a huge chance that you run into these street performers.

Let’s book now to walk together, enjoy a cup of traditional ice cream and learn about Isfahan, such a vibrant city at its best!

Note: Visiting ” Vank Cathedral ” and “Isfahan Music Museum ” is optional and will happen only if you like to learn about Iranian musical instruments and enjoy alive Persian traditional music, performed by a group of young  talented musicians!

Excellent service and support Excellent Service ! i am surprised by the reactivity and the will to help and find quickly hotels, flights and solutions for me, even though the holiday season makes things challenging. Chatting through whatsapp made things super smooth and extremely easy. I was interacting with two people from TAP Persia, Rojin and Sohrab. They were just amazing ! They are the ones who reached out to me directly and interacted instantly with me day and night. Great job guys !I used earlier a different company but i was disappointed, i strongly recommend TAP Persia .Keep up the great work !

Fabulous agency - can't recommend more highly for travellers to Iran I decided to go to Iran at short notice and was only able to do so thanks to the exceptional service provided by TAP Persia.What further complicated was my ignorance of being in the middle of Nowruz and the impact that has on flight availabilities etc.In the first instance, that revolved around speedy obtainment of a visa as well as other aspects such as insurance and mah card via their great-value welcome pack.Thereafter, all of my accommodation, tour guides and transport between destinations was arranged by the beyond-wonderful Mahgol with tremendous efficiency, patience and responsiveness - I could not praise nor thank her enough.Communications are as good as can be.With my lack of Farsi and, more specifically, incomprehension of the alphabet, doing things in this manner was the only way to go.All of the guides - Fatemah, Amin, Fardin, Moji, Peyman and Masoud - were fantastic being passionate, knowledgeable, smarter-than-average bears and very nice people.Rasool, Mehrnoush and Sohrab in the office were also very helpful.I would say though that, to help them (especially) to try to draft your itinerary as much as possible before approaching them as this will save time i.e. places, days in each, hotel price-range then trust them to select the latter for you.

Great Service :) TApersia accompanied us well on the way to our Iran visa. My wife's visa took 2 weeks longer than mine (German EU & I'm Swiss). Our questions were always answered quickly by the nice Mahgol via WhatsApp. We think she did her best for our visa processing. After a while, we were also asked how we were doing! Nice, support and promptness are at the highest level.

Solo Saudi female in <3 IRAN <3 10/10. It's hard for me to be succinct, but I will try. I am a Saudi who has been impressed, curious, and infatuated by Iranian culture(s), Iron Age history, Islamic & other religious histories, architecture, and geography for over 15 years. Yum, and food. I wanted initially to continue my Persian language study at Dehkhoda Institute, however student visas take much longer than other visas to process, and I would likely miss my class during the processing time. I was disheartened and scrambled through my Google bookmarks looking for old travel that I had saved over the years in my Iran folder. ;) TAP Persia was bookmarked numerous times and I quickly applied for a tourist visa. Hey, I can still practice some Persian as a tourist, right? THE PROCESS WAS SO EASY. So smooth! Mahgol deserves all the praise and recognition for bringing relief to my anxious-self (because I had already long-ago booked my airline tickets and took time off work!), and she walked me through all the steps in a timely manner and with competence and grace. Even during the first week of Norouz and Ramadan, I got a friendly update and advice -- got my tourist visa within 5 or 6 days (the Ministry was closed for Ramarouz, but WOW that was still quick). I cried from happiness and surprise... Thank you thank you. I will be in Iran April to mid-May. Originally I just registered for TAP Persia welcome package + visa help, but now I'm pretty curious about signing up for one or 2 of their tours now. I am beyond impressed and excited. This travel company, Mahgol, & this team already made me feel safe and like I'm going home, and I imagine with their business practice, will prosper for many years down the road. Thank you so much. Someone please remind me to update this post with photos once I arrive to Iran <3

Iranvisum Ich habe mein Visa für den Iran über TAP Persia beantragt, da der normale Weg zu kompliziert war und sehr viele potentielle Fehler birgt. Ich kann den Service definitiv empfehlen. Alles ist sehr gut und detailliert beschrieben. Der Preis für diesen Service ist es in meinen Augen definitiv Wert. Auch der Kontakt nach der Beantragung über WhatsApp war sehr gut. Sehr freundlich und hilfreich.

Tour in Jofa with Amin

    Amin was our guide for a tour in Jolfa and I absolutely recommend him. He knows well the history of this quarter you can't miss. Amin is flexible and helpful. Thanks Amin for your time in that cozy café sharing some information about your country and for the good restaurant you recommended. It was a great pleasure and we hope to see you again!Recomendamos a Amin para la visita obligada al bonito barrio de Jolfa y descubrir lo mejor de este barrio armenio en Isfahan, desde su catedral histórica con magníficas pinturas y un museo cargado de historia que vale la pena conocer, hasta las calles tranquilas con muchos cafés y atractivos escaparates. Amin es un guía puntual, tranquilo y amable que nos dedicó tiempo para tomar juntos un café y hablar sobre el país en general y aspectos más prácticos para continuar nuestra estancia en Isfahan.

    highly recommended!!

    Just finished the day tour around the Armenian district, Samaneh, it was a neat experience to find a Christian neighborhood in the central part of Iran. at the end of the tour, I booked her for another adventure to the desert too!

    An experience of a lifetime

    So I'm sitting in front of the church waiting for our guide trying to memorize every single detail of the building. we got to explore the church that made us say Wow over and over again. I was on the trip that went through Zion, Bryce. we took things off our bucket list that I didn’t even know were on my bucket list. Thanks for the experience of a lifetime!

    naghshe jahan to Jolfa walk

    It was an incredible trekking experience. It is impossible to write a review that would do justice to our guides, the places we saw, and the amazing church, but I will do my best. the guys from tappersia, Rasool and Parnian, were just beyond anything I expected. Our guide made sure to take us to incredible cafes for some coffee and told us all about the history of migrated Armenians. My mind was ready to be blown away when she took us clothes shopping. overall, Our trip was perfect. It could not have been better!
