Seyed Ali Mohammad Hosseini Uppersia - 13 day private tour”

My wife and I (both Americans) arranged a private 13-night tour of Iran with Uppersia in Shiraz.  We developed our own itinerary and selected our own accommodations which  were fine with Uppersia.  The entire tour went just as we had planned and the only problem was delays in receiving responses to our email messages in the month before our departure.  Once we were given the name of our guide, we had no problems communicating with him by email.   As Americans, we were required to have both a driver and guide arranged by Uppersia.  Our guide was Seyed Ali Mohammad Hosseini about whom others have made very favorable comments.  Seyed is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, personable and candid in his answers and comments on all subjects.  He contributed immeasurably to our enjoyment of the tour and we believe we developed a real friendship over the two weeks.  We recommend him highly.  Of the fifty or so trips abroad we have taken, our tour of Iran was easily the most interesting and revealing.  As elsewhere in the Middle East, the Iranian people are incredibly welcoming and, in our case,  were particularly   surprised and happy to meet and speak with Americans.  

You're just going to have to come to California now so that we can go on a kolompeh safari! Take good care, Rick

I have traveled around Iran as part of the charity motor race Mongol Rally, where Uppersia helped us with all formalities ang. Own car and travel in Iran. I was in the unfortunate situation of losing my passport a few days before I was going to Iran, but thanks to Uppersia I managed to enter the country without an invitation or authorization code. I thought that my whole holiday was lost, but still got six good days in Iran. Which I am happy. Had the pleasure of tour guide Ali Hosseini, who was sweet and full throughout. I would definitely recommend this tourist bureau at all.
