Overview

Abyaneh Village

Abyaneh is one of the highest residential areas in Iran, located 40 km from Northwest of Natanz(Kashan tour). The reason for being well-known as a red village is the colour of this region’s soil, which has made all houses and constructions amazingly look reddish. We begin our trip by the Harpak Fire Temple that belongs to Zoroastrians. It’s the oldest monument of the village, built in the Achaemenid time. The temple includes three floors made of stone, plaster and clay.

Then, we head to Jame Mosque of Abyaneh, the congregational mosque which dates back to the Ilkhanid time and located in center of the village. The entrance door, decorated beautifully and considered as one of the oldest doors in Abyaneh. The mosque includes old and new halls. The old hall has a wooden floor and a wooden sanctuary, on which you can see carved plant designs. In fact, it’s very valuable historically. There’s also an ancient pulpit from Seljuk era, about 900 years ago.
Inside the new hall, you can see stunning carved pillars and a bright skylight. Some Quran inscriptions on the net wooden ceiling are also visible. Hinza shrine, known as Bibi Zobeydeh by people is another historical attraction of Abyaneh. The Shrine is built in front of a cave, so the cave has become part of its internal space. Some believe the shrine used to be a place for worshipping Anahid, the zoroastrians’ God. Some also consider it as a miracle and they hold a special ceremony inside the construction.
Wandering and observing the old texture of village will be so intriguing. We will watch the houses, built on the steep hills. In fact, the porch of one house is the roof of another one. People hold their old rituals and customs as they’re even wearing traditional clothes. Obviously, you’ll relish visiting this distinct village and get an ingenious taste of Persia.

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.

was more beautiful with our guide and his help!

Everything in our journey from the pick-up to Abyaneh was great. The village had a lot to wonder about, a very well-organized trip, perfect timing, and welcoming locals. Outstanding experience to try the local dress.

Wonderful trip with even better servcice

My experience with tappersia dates back to my first trip since then Rasool managed all the tours for my family. We were given enough time to stop and take pictures of the red village. I highly recommend booking this tour on the way to Kashan.
