Hi I’m from Austria and I want to travel to Iran, can I apply for an Iran visa? and what do you suggest me about the best time for applying visa and booking hotels? Is it possible to book online or should I apply through email or phone?

Iran has been near the top of my list for a long time but I’m not sure what the visa situation is like at the moment for Americans. I know for a long time it was fairly straightforward as long as you went with a tour but I’ve heard since January (cough) they aren’t issuing them. Anyone have any ideas?

Hey, thank you for the nice blog. My girlfriend and me are going to Iran in december. How did you guys travel in the country by car or bus. We are not sure if we want to rent a car because we are thinking its nicer to be more in contact with the Iran people in busses or trains. But there are a lot of places to visit where there is no public transportation going….
So perhaps do you hafe some tips for us, that would be greate.

Greetings Nordin

I’ve heard good things about Iran. It’s crazy how the media can deter our thoughts about a place by only showing the violence not the good.

I adored this post!
Thank you for the introduction to “From Ice to Spice” and the great information on Iran, a country I know so little about.
The pictures are simple stunning!

I love travelling in Iran!! One of my favourite places to travel – easy, safe and enjoyable. Thanks for reminding me of so many happy memories…

Thanks so much for sharing this! There is a serious lack of travel blogging on Iran and other destinations that aren’t ‘mainstream’, especially for American travellers (which I’m not). I have a question about costs though- I have looked into going to Iran before, and could never figure out what the costs on the ground really are. Plus, I know you have to take all your cash with you because of sanctions with the banks etc. Could the authors of this maybe give some indication of costs? Thanks :)

I’ve noticed a few travel bloggers are heading over to Iran – a country I wouldn’t have considered a safe place to visit. This is a really eye opening post, so, naturally, Iran has been added to my wish list!

Wow! Iran looks so amazing! Thanks for clarifying the safety issue, too.

I absolutely love this piece. Well done! I’ve been to Egypt, Tunisia, Qatar and Turkey. I would love to go to Iran one of these days but trouble tends to follow me around so I’ll follow you instead LOL!
