Overview

Evening Astronomy Tour

Join us in an awe-inspiring astronomy lesson on an evening tour. You will have the chance to stay in a traditional guesthouse in Yaghud village, with a cup of tea, while listening to a short introduction about the basics of astronomy. You will learn about the splendid sky and what you get to see in the tour. You will learn to observe the sky with your naked eyes and understand what you see. You will see planets and constellations with a laser pointer.

Furthermore, you will be given a brief insight into mythology, horoscope, and how to use a professional telescope. With professional astronomy equipment, you get to see shining stars, nebula, and galaxies. You will also learn to read the sky map and then find stars yourselves. With such interactional approach, you will learn the “alphabet” of astronomy and become an amateur astronomer who will not want the lesson to finish. After eating dinner in the guesthouse this amazing trip ends and you will be taken back to Isfahan. You will find such experience nowhere else(Isfahan tour).

In the time of booking the tour consider the following notes:

  1. Because of the strong moonlight astronomy tour can’t take place in the period between 5 days before and 5 days after the full moon.
  2. 2. At 10:00 AM one day of the planned trip you will be contacted with a weather update. In the case of the bad weather forecast, the trip will be rescheduled or refunded. If the weather turns bad during the tour refund will be partial.

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.

a knowledgabele tour

What a brilliant way to spend an evening! Farba and Ivan are great and down to earth that made me feel so welcome. Once there, our guide was so friendly and took us on an awesome evening astronomy tour. I will know what I’m staring at each night. I can identify Mercury, and the northern star. Pick a clean sky and enjoy!

astronomy tour 101

Our guides are amateur enthusiasts. A great combination of great knowledge, science and stars. We saw plants close-up with the telescope and had some snacks in the dark. One of the best things we did in Isfahan. Fabulous.

A spring Must do!

I went as a school teacher and asked for an afternoon tour. It was just the best tour I had. The positive attitude of every member of tappersia is an inspiration for travelers. The guide was an absolute delight too. Our guide gave wonderful instructions to star gazing and explained each star and when it appeared. I'll recommend taking the tour with tappersia and enjoy the evening show up in the sky.

Great Experience

So fun! We had a great time watching the night sky to see the planets and look at the mass amounts of stars in our galaxy. The telescope was fun seeing through it. Farib was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. The night vision of the sky was top-notch! One recommendation would be to do it again and again!
