Iran shows different faces all year round although the best times for traveling are spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October). During these two periods, the weather will not be too hot or cold and senior travelers have less possibility of getting sick. The scenery in spring and autumn is also the most scenic.

Senior travelers have special requirements for accommodation, transportation, and diet due to their physical conditions. Therefore, we will give you some suggestions on these aspects.
Recommended Transportation
Iran has a developed transportation network. You can choose the appropriate type of transportation according to your own physical condition. If you need to avoid taking too many flights, you can take a private car with a chauffeur.
The most hassle-free and secure way to travel is to book a private tour. A private driver and guide will wait for you at your hotel and drive you around wherever you want to go in an air-conditioned car.

Accommodation
We recommend senior travelers stay at a central location to make evening and morning free-time activities as convenient as possible. We suggest staying at international-style large hotels, as they have softer beds, showers, lifts, and ramps.
Feel free to contact us and tell us your special requirements about the hotel, such as a king-size bed, twin beds, a suite room, a standard room, and separate dry and wet areas in the bathroom. Our travel advisor is happy to give you useful suggestions.
Dining
As senior travelers’ stomachs are more easily upset by local food, we recommend eating at the hotel, or a good restaurant, and avoiding eating street snacks. Tell your guide your dietary requirements so that he/she can select the right restaurants for you.
Our restaurant selections ensure you can eat plenty of delicious, authentic, and healthy food.
We believe that a good tour for senior travelers is to visit where they want to go in happiness and comfort. This means you don’t have to work hard to keep up with the group and get tired, you can just travel at your own pace. Therefore, we recommend a private tour for you.
