Hi Cyrus and Albert,
I returned home tonight from my travels to Esfahan, Yazd and Shiraz. I want to thank you for all your help and encouragement.
I couldn't have had a better guide than Daryoosh Minoui. He's a great guy, very knowledgeable, full command of English, and was willing to take my interests into consideration. He was very responsive to my questions and needs.
I hope that I can encourage other Americans to travel to Iran....notwithstanding the hassles involved to get the visa. I'd recommend they use your services and, if Daryoosh were available, I'd encourage them to try to get him as their guide.
I was also happy with each of the hotels, with the one in Esfahan and Shiraz perfectly located.
With all the challenges between our two countries, Iran remains a fantastic place to visit with unbelievable mosques, shrines, squares, gardens. Bit most importantly, it's the people who make the visit so special. I was warmly welcomed as a western tourist.
Thanks again. Ron

Dear Mr. Beheshti,
I just wanted to thank all involved in organizing and administrating your latest Egypt tour. Everything was exceptional.
I have traveled all over the globe in the last 50 years many times with tours of all kinds, yet this tour definitely exceeded all my expectations; a wonderful tour all around.
I especially want to express my heartfelt gratitude, appreciation and complete satisfaction to our Egyptian Tour Director/Leader, Mr. Bassam Sameh, who went well above and beyond the call of duty to patiently accommodate everyone and every request possible. He was very caring, responsible, knowledgeable, pleasant, responsive, easy to understand and skillful and professional in his field. He definitely is a first class Tour Director. He made our travel experience very pleasant and memorable.
I also want to thank and commend my dear Ms. Samira Pahlavan, who patiently, pleasantly and accurately made all my travel arrangements and accommodated all my requests.
Sincerely,
Just returned from our trip. We thoroughly enjoyed Iran and all it had to offer. We covered a lot of ground with the help of a great guide Ahmad and the driver Mr. Beggy. The hotels were great, the van was nice and comfortable and everyone could have not been nicer. Thank you for taking such good care of us.

Hello Cyrus. Yes we are in Portugal. And have returned from a wonderful trip in Iran . The people loved us. They would come up to us and hug us. We felt so safe all the time. We walked at night by ourselves and ate everywhere. It was a Joy. Thank you for planning such a thorough trip. Our guide and driver were so good and professional. We did not want to leave.
I want to say everything went perfect!!! We loved our driver and guide. We can not say enough about them. People would come up to us freely and welcome us. We especially loved the accommodations. Thank you . The old traditional houses were so wonderful. What we liked the most were the Iranians!!!! We had so much fun and conversation with them. The whole time we felt safe when we walked the streets at night by ourselves.
We have some friends and will try and suggest your company. Lastly, for us, the cost for meals was so inexpensive. But I feel for the people where the dollar does not work for them. And, I do apologize for not contacting you as soon as we departed. We left for Portugal and have been driving around and loving it too.
We are not back in USA next Dec . 19. We are taking a cruise from Rome to Ft. Lauderdale.
Just want to relax for awhile.
Thank you

Dear Cyrus!
We just returned from Iran and we had an amazing trip!
Thank you for all of your assistance and we are already planning on visiting again next year!
Thanks, Joe
Cyrus – just wanted to let you know our trip to Iran was amazing. Ahmed, our guide, was particularly good. He figured out what we liked to eat see etc. and made solid suggestions the whole time. His English is great and his passion and knowledge of the country added substantially. Would highly recommend him for future clients (especially younger Americans).
All hotels were very nice (except the abassi which we requested, and was a bit too but and commercial). The hotel in Yazd was especially lovely.
Thanks again.
Hello Cyrus
We want to thank you for a wonderful experience with your travel agency, we did enjoy our vacation in Egypt very much. If you ever travel to Nashville, TN please visit us, we love to see you again. I attached some pictures of you with the group.
I just returned from 17 days in Iran, and recommend the trip highly. Visas, connections and accommodations were first rate; guides excellent; the weather fine, the scenery spectacular, the antiquity (some 2500 years) astounding. The people, with a great curiosity about Americans, couldn’t have been more kind or hospitable.
Dear Cyrus Beheshti,
I just wanted to drop you a note and say thank you for the great accommodation of your Egypt tour. I have only 3 words to say: FAB-U-LOUS.
Everything about the trip was perfect, hotel accommodation, the Nile cruise, the food and most importantly our tour guide Ayman, we loved him, such a passionate individual about his work and so kind and sweet. He was as our shadow everywhere and made sure that we were all happy 24/7.
I can’t thank you enough for all your great service, because of you and your staff this trip was possible for me, my mom and my aunts. I wanted to send you this thank you note on behalf of all. We will definitely recommend your services to our friends and family.
Dear Cyrus Travel
Earlier this month Mr. Paul …… and I traveled to Iran, visiting Tehran, Isfahan and Shiraz. We were very satisfied with the itinerary. We found the hotels, food and guides to be excellent.
Moreover, the people were most friendly to us.
We both highly recommend the services of Cyrus Travel.
Our only regret was not to have more time there.
Dear Cyrus
Just a note to thank you again for all your efforts in putting together such a memorable vacation to Egypt. We really enjoyed the whole trip and also Ayman was such a knowledgeable person, you could feel his passion for Egypt. We look forward to many more trips with Cyrus Travel. Thanks again.
Had a nice 10 days in Iran. The schedule was just about right; we used one of the Shiraz days to go to Bishapour, which gave us more exposure to countryside. In hindsight, may be I’d go on land from Pasargad via Yazd to Isfahan, but it was fine as is.
The historical sites were outstanding, as expected. I was glad that I Got a few occasions to talk to people, including visits to a university, a business promoting Persian language software company, some bookstores and some religious minorities. Not a lot, but more than I had anticipated in a tight schedule. Did get to the mountains above Tehran, and -big surprise- right to Khomeini’s home.
We got a bunch of nice restaurants for fesenjan, fadooli (at least the Shiraz version) and ash-e-reshteh (though only once, in the Caravansarai Hotel garden in Isfahan). Standard kebabs fine. I did get tired of barley soup on every menu.
A particular commendation to Reza……., our guide, who was both knowledgeable about the archeological details but, very important, on the linguistic issues which were important to me. Friendly, young, gregarious, still eager to learn, and still excited about going to places he’d been to a hundred times before. He was a good choice.
Now if they would all just learn how to drive…..
I spent 17 days in Iran with Cyrus Tours, and found the trip among the most interesting I’ve experienced. This includes Cuba and North Korea. The scenery is magnificent, the spring weather delightful, the antiquity amazing (some predates Greece) and the people simply marvelous. They are extremely hospitable and terribly curious about Americans (I saw nine). The Europeans and Asians are flocking to Iran. At no time was I apprehensive or uncomfortable.
Most of this was because Cyrus Beheshti has more connections in Iran than any other tour operator in America. Originally in travel business in Iran, he still handles more Iranian travel than anyone stateside. His 40+ years in business and his office in Washington D.C. give him a rare perspective.
Dear Cyrus,
I wanted to visit your country for so long and it was incredible. The guides were great, always willing to help and to show us whatever we wanted. Our companions could not been better and the trip itself definitely exceeded my expectations. Being a group of 5 only, we were able to see the past, present and future of Iran. The home visit that we had in Shiraz gave great insight into how people really live. Everybody was so nice and helpful. I was in awe of your ancient civilization and learned so much about Iran. I hope I can send some clients and friends to your country so they can see what I saw. Thank you again for a wonderful trip.
Just a little note to thank you for all your efforts for facilitating such an excellent service to your customers.
Throughout the past years, I have had the pleasure of enjoying your services and because of your professional attitude, kind personality and prompt service, I have chosen the Cyrus Travel as my most favorite travel agency.
Keep up the good work.
Hello Cyrus,
We had a very nice trip to Isfahan and Shiraz. My compliments to Cyrus Travel, as well your corresponding agency in Iran.
Thank you
