Alireza.

Alireza is a certified tour guide based in Isfahan, Iran, where he guides and drives travelers himself.

His trips center on central Iran: day tours around Isfahan's mosques, bridges and the Armenian quarter, routes out to Yazd through Naein and Meybod, desert excursions to Varzaneh and Qurtan Castle, and the historic sites around Natanz and Abyaneh village. He also runs a two-day trip into the Zagros mountains to visit the Bakhtiary nomads near Sar Agha Seyyed, with a night in a rural house. His own background includes work as a guide for Iran's natural stone business, and he describes experience in cultural tours, eco-tours, photography and wildlife.

Trips are run door to door from the traveler's hotel, by sedan or van depending on the route, with a tour guide accompanying the group throughout. Alireza also works with other guides and drivers, so he can put together custom itineraries beyond his own listed routes. In a message to a traveler planning ahead, he comes across as reassuring and direct about what to expect on the ground in Iran, offering himself as a point of contact for questions before a trip is booked.
