I toured Northern Iran with Hassan at then end of July 2007. It was an absolute pleasure. I was originally going to do the trip by public transport but decided that with the tight time scale that  I had to pick a guide with a car. Must say I think I was very lucky in choosing Hassan. He is both knowledgeable and funny. His rates are very reasonable and drove a new 206 with aircon. Some days we covered as much 700km. His English is excellent. I ended up seeing far more than I could have hoped. I met his charming family and even had dinner with them. Hassan can recommend hotels and great restaurants at any budget or you can choose them yourself, he doesn't get any commission from hotels and is 100% trust worthy, infact towards the end of the journey, when we were in the middle of nowhere I ran out of money and he lent me some! How about that for trust.

I consider Hassan as a friend even after such a short time and thoroughly recommend him. I hope to meet up with him when I next return to Iran. Any questions then feel free to email me.

 

"I visited Iran in October 2005 and chose Hassan as my guide to Gilan, the Caspian region. What an excellent choice! He provided very helpful information by email ahead of my trip. A typically warm welcome awaited me when I arrived from Tabriz. Hassan  made me feel like one of the family.
