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.

With over 15 million residents, Tehran is Iran’s melting pot, the center of its national identity. Check out local shopping experiences in the maze-like Grand Bazaar of Tehran, before heading off to the World Heritage-listed Golestan Palace, in Central Tehran. The 18th c. Qajar-era complex is a masterpiece of hand-painted tiles, set within a lush garden. After a quick stroll through Shahr Park, arrive at the National Museum of Iran, which holds artifacts from ancient and medieval Iranian antiquities.

Qeshm Island

Fly to Qeshm Island in the morning. The dolphin-shaped island, along with most islands in the Persian Gulf, feature extreme otherworldly formations. Explore caverns and crevasses of the Valley of Stars. Visit the ancient hideout of Khourbas or Kharbas Cave, historically used as a safe haven from pirates. Stop by the Qeshm Geopark Museum to learn about the unique flora and fauna of the island. Move on to Naz Island Beach, a 3 Km span of golden sands and clear waters. Try to fit in the Namakdan Salt Cave, the longest salt cave in the world. End the day on top of the Qeshm Roof, a natural plateau with a panoramic view of the island. Sleep in a Qeshm Guesthouse.

Qeshm Island
Qeshm Island

Start the day with Laft city. This fishing village on the northern coast of Qeshm Island is the best place in Iran to encounter the fast-disappearing traditional culture of the Persian Gulf. Enjoy the photogenic roofscape of badgirs (wind towers) and minarets. Hop on a boat in Soheili Port and head for the UNESCO-registered Mangrove Hara Forest. Stop by Tandis-ha Valley for a breathtaking view. Finish the day with a climb on Chahkooh Canyon. Time-permitting, climb up to the intersection of the two narrow vertical canyons and drink from a chah (well) that has been used by local shepherds for centuries. Sleep in a Qeshm Guesthouse.

Hormuz Island
Hormuz Island

Hop on a ferry to Hormuz Island. Visit the Salt Goddess, a collection of enormous natural salt formations. Stop by Rainbow Valley, considered to be a geologist’s dream and an inspiration for artists and nature enthusiasts. Visit the Valley of Statues, tall rocks sculpted into strange shapes by the elements. Visit the Red Beach to indulge your eyes in pink waves washing over crimson sands. Spend the final hours relaxing on the Mangrove Beach before heading back to the Qeshm Guesthouse for the night.

Hengam Island
Hengam Island

Hop on a ferry to Hengam Island. The island is home to beautiful landscapes, golden sands, clear blue waters, & colorful wildlife. If possible, hop on a Dolphin Tour for an up close experience. Visit Khamasi Beach for some sunbathing and swimming. Spend some time relaxing and meditating on the sands. Towards the sunset, head towards the Silver Beach, a metal-rich beach that produces a radiant metallic hue, perfect for a moonlight stroll along the water. Head back to the Qeshm Guesthouse for the night.

Qeshm Island
Qeshm Island

Spend the last day relaxing on the island. Take in the views and the local culture one last time. Go for an early morning stroll along the waters. Gather up a group of friends and enjoy water sports in the cool waters of the Persian Gulf. Qeshm is also home to numerous commercial centers, so shop for some new clothes or check out some of the local souvenirs. Spend the sunset relaxing along the sandy beaches. If possible, build a bonfire when the moon comes out. Spend the night in the Qeshm Guesthouse.

Shiraz
Shiraz

Fly to Shiraz in the Morning. Relax in the World Heritage-listed Eram Garden, before visiting the Citadel of Karim khan. A former prison, the citadel has been converted to a giant garden, complete with local vendors. A quick stop at the Tomb of Hafez, the worldwide-renowned Persian poet, and it’s off to the exquisitely-decorated Ali Ibn Hamza Mausoleum.

Shiraz
Shiraz

Arrive before 8 am for the best views of sunlight hitting the glass-mosaic windows of the Nasir ol-Molk Mosque, or the “Pink Mosque”. After taking photos, explore the 11th c. Bazaar of Shiraz. Then it’s on to the Vakil Complex, a popular desert stop for Asian and European merchants on ancient trade routes. The complex features the Vakil Mosque, Vakil Bathhouse, and the historic caravansary. Finish the night alongside new friends as you eat dinner with locals. Sleep in a guesthouse.

Persepolis
Persepolis

Start with the World Heritage-listed Persepolis, once the center of the Persian Empire and one of the great capitals of the ancient world. The towering columns, remarkable relief carvings, and massive gateways are still imposing. Take time to also explore the Naghshe-e Rostam Necropolis, a royal graveyard of massive tombs, carved straight into the mountainside, from the Achaemenids to the Sassanids. Spend some time at the final resting place of Cyrus the Great, the founder of the first Persian Empire, the Achaemenid dynasty, at Pasargadae. Spend the night in Yazd.

Yazd
Yazd

In the morning, visit the Yazd Jameh Mosque, built in the 13th c. over a Sassanid fire temple. Then, hit the narrow, mud-brick streets to visit the Amir Chakhmagh Complex, which contains a caravanserai, a bathhouse, and many confectioneries. Learn how underground water channels kept the city hydrated with a visit to the Yazd Water Museum. Stop in at the Zoroastrian Fire Temple and see the holy fire that has burned since 470 AD. Finish by seeing the Tower of Silence to witness the location of sky burials. Rest in Yazd.

Maybod

Drive towards the pre-Islamic city of Maybod to explore the remarkably maintained Sassanid-era Narin Castle. Visit the Maybod Pigeon Tower, an important invention in message sending and fertilization. Move on the Maybod Yakhchal, a millenia-old icehouse within the desert, and the Abbasi Carvensary. Explore the abandoned mud-brick village Kharanaq, a well-preserved example of how Persian cities looked thousands of years ago, and hike up the mountaintop Chak Chak Fire Temple. Spend the night in Isfahan.

Marvel at Sheykh Lotfollah Mosque’s mesmerizing dome, Shah Mosque’s enchanting courtyard, & Ali Qapu Palace’s view. You can also visit Chehel-sotun Palace, the royal Safavid reception for foreign dignitaries and ambassadors. Time-permitting. Finish the night with Khaju Bridge & Si-o-Se Pol Bridge, local hangouts along the Zayandeh Rud river.

Isfahan

Visit one of the oldest and liveliest parts of Isfahan, known as New Jolfa. Visit the bright frescos of Vank Cathedral, featuring juxtaposed Islamic and Medieval European iconography. You could also visit the historic, delicate handicrafts of the Vank Museum within the courtyard of the church. You could also stop by the nearby Music Museum to learn about the history and evolution of traditional and modern Persian music. Visit the elaborate 8th c. Jameh Mosque of Isfahan, built upon a former Zoroastrian fire temple. Rest in Isfahan.

Kashan

In the morning, head for the pre-Islamic city of Kashan. Visit the Agha Bozorg Mosque, a multilevel theological school that served as the center of Kashani life. Stop by the Sultan Amir Ahmad Bathhouse for a lesson in classic bathing. You might have time to see the Abbasian House & Tabatabaei House, two examples of opulent homes, designed specifically for the desert. If possible, make a quick stop in Fin Garden, then head for Tehran towards IKIA.

dolphins and hengam

Studying abroad is always been something that I had dreamed of exploring the country and I am so happy I chose to go with Tappersia. The Persian Gulf is very one of a kind; from the people to the architecture to the food ( read, AWESOME). We took a boat to reach Hengam, the island of colors. The most interesting part of our tour was to see the dolphins from very close distances.it takes guts to travel to Iran let alone to decide to live and study there. If I could do this experience all over again, I would go for it. One trip is not enough. Take the chance, you will not regret it.

10/10 would recommend this tour

I just finished the 14 days trip with you guys. The trip was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I initially only booked the visa but decided to extend it to the 14-day tour because I fell in love with the planning, the amazing service, and the amazing people on it! The guides, Rasool and Mostafa, were absolutely incredible and helpful. We couldn't have had better people from Rasool helping us to feel safe and secure during the whole tour. for everything! 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to have a life-changing time in Iran!
