Excellent
They were very professional in organising our 9 day tour of Damavand, including Damavand and Alamkuh. Our tour guide, Rahman, was fantastic. The porters did a sterling job carrying our packs on the mountain trek. The mountain trek was a great experience, but it was not for the fainthearted. I strongly recommend doing some hill climbing training beforehand, in particular, stair climbing (up’n’down). The welcome back dinner in Damavand was also a very nice surprise. All in all, I would have no hesitation recommending Visitouriran.
