Hi there. Iran……who does not want to go there?? We are a group of hikers and want to climb mount Damavand. I heard that your Iran tour packages can be customized so maybe we can stay in Tehran during our whole trip?? We did so in China and managed to climb mount Emei and mount Tai ……. And it would be great if we could have a hiker as our leader too, thanks again. So I hope Gapatour Company, that you or one of your bloggers can give us some advice.
