My name is Hamed. I am a Licensed Tour Guide & Tour Operator in Iran, authorized to organize tours for Americans and accompany them by the national tourism organization (listed as special guide for Americans, Brits and Canadians in the Iranian MFA guide's list, able to provide Iranian visa support). I graduated in electrical and electronic engineering in 2003.

Firstly, I want to thank you for choosing our country as your tourist destination. I hope you have a brilliant experience in our historical country and enjoy many memorable moments.

You can count on me for providing a complete service so you can visit wherever you want in Iran. I can help you obtain visa, book hotels, book domestic flight tickets, organize transportation between or within cities, and plan a feasible itinerary.

It always gives me a great pleasure to help people from other countries have memorable trips throughout Iran. There are so many wonderful things in Iran:

- Historical attractions in Isfahan, Kashan, Yazd, Shiraz, Shushtar and Tabriz

- Breathtaking views in Northern Iran

- Unique mountain sights in Azerbaijan Province

- Nomadic Kurdish tribes

- Bakhtiyari Nomads and stay in their tents

- Semi Nomads around Meymand Village, Kerman

- Desert experience

… all these wonderful things are waiting for you to discover!

It would be my great pleasure to provide you with a complete service and show you my sincerity when you honor Iran by choosing my homeland as your tourist destination. I would like you to experience the famous Iranian hospitality, meet our friendly people, and see the glorious culture and history of my country.

In addition to all the reviews I have on this site, I have many more glowing references from Europeans, Australians, Brazilians, Asians and visitors from other countries who can confirm the service I provide. Just let me know if you would like to see these and I will send you their contact information.

I didn't put any price for tours as it varies based on the destinations you want to visit, your itinerary and also what services you ask me to do. Please send me an inquiry with details of your plan and interests, then I will provide pricing details.

It would also be my pleasure to treat you with traditional Iranian music. I have played an Iranian traditional musical instrument as "Taar" for 15 years.

I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing from you, meeting you, and being at your service with unique Iranian hospitality!

Reviews of Hamed Dastpak

My tour with Hamed was one of the best trips I've ever been on. He is really different from most guides I've met, in that he really makes tours personal, if that is what you are looking for. Every special thing I told Hamed I wanted to see, he added it to our itinerary. He even allowed me to enjoy celebrations of the Persian new year with his family. He is a kind man with a generous spirit and a truly excellent guide. Also, for other solo female travelers out there: I went on a two week tour alone with Hamed and he was nothing but professional the entire time, so no worries about that. Read less

I can highly recommend Hamed Dastpak. A scholar and a gentleman, schmoozer extraordinaire! His engaging manner means everywhere he goes, people like and remember him, and this opens doors to many opportunities. Very experienced without having lost his enthusiasm, very professional while remaining flexible and friendly. He is knowledgeable, well-connected, resourceful, tireless. I just spent 24 days travelling with him in central and northern Iran, and couldn't imagine a better guide. And as a Canadian who is prevented by Iranian law from solo travel or staying in private homes, I particularly appreciated his efforts to help me make contact with ordinary people along the way. I'd be happy to answer any questions from someone contemplating a trip, but you can contact him directly (text, WhatsApp, Telegram) at: Hamed Dastpak +98 912 525 2911 Read less

We traveled to Iran in last November which was absolutely one of our lifelong experiences and the highlight of 2018. Special thanks to Hamed our tour provider who made this dream come true. As Americans we needed special tour guide in Iran for visa support and running the tour. We were really lucky to find Hamed in this website and he provided excellent services and treated us in the best way. He is very polite, hardworking and deeply thoughtful about our needs. He is very reliable and trustworthy! Can't recommend him more! Do not listen to propaganda against Iran, go there and enjoy great hospitality of Persians. Read less

I traveled with Hamed Dastpak in July, 2018. I strongly recommend the wonderful tour guide. 1. He speaks English very fluently. It is very important. Because English is not my mother language, I can't understand what he said if he has any accent. 2. He has good knowledge about his culture and history. And he rally love his country. You can feel the passion when he explains Iran culture and history. But, don't worry, he has an open mind. 3. He is a good tour guide and good friend. He make you feel comfortable and easy during whole trip. 4. He is a good musician. We drink tea at the roof coffee shop and see the sunset in the Yazd . He played the traditional music. What a wonderful night. Trust him. He will give you a wonderful trip. Read less

Without doubt Hamed was one of my favorite tour guide among those I know. I am living in Alaska and I have traveled to many cities in the world. But traveling to Iran because of him was so special. He was extremely good, very flexible and highly motivated. He had very good historical knowledge and answered all of my questions, was very responsive when I contacted him, was on time, took pictures of me, always had water!!! I highly recommended Hamed, you won't be disappointed. Read less
