Adventurous travel destination
 |
Iran is not a regular holiday destination. That’s the reason why our Iran tours have a distinctive and adventurous character. But circumstances can change during the season. We try to follow the travel program as good as possible. Changes can occur, for instance when a part of the program is visited in the afternoon, instead of in the morning or the following day. Some changes are only known during the tour. Important changes, known before the tour starts, will be communicated as soon as possible.
We try to carry out all tours according to the expectations you can reasonably have. However, if the tour does not go according to the information we provided, let this be known clearly and in time (during the tour).
De Vries Reizen has it’s own English speaking service desk in Iran. They are glad to solve your possible problems.
