We greatly enjoyed our recent tour which Pettitts organised, particularly because we had an excellent guide whose deep knowledge of his subject combined with his very good English and warm personality, greatly enhanced our experience.
We had an excellent time and would thoroughly recommend a visit to Iran where we felt very welcome and safe.
