Best time to travel to Iran
Iran is a country of diverse landscapes and climates, making it a year-round destination depending on where you plan to visit. The best time to visit Iran largely depends on the regions you intend to explore.
For those interested in exploring Tehran, Isfahan, and Shiraz, the spring months of March to May are ideal. During this period, temperatures are mild, ranging from 12° to 25°, and the blossoming gardens and historical sites are at their most beautiful.
The Persian New Year, Nowruz, celebrated in late March, adds a festive atmosphere to your visit.
The autumn months of September to November are also excellent for visiting central Iran. The temperatures are comfortable, typically between 15° and 27°, and the summer crowds have dwindled, allowing for a more relaxed exploration of the country's rich cultural heritage.
If you're planning to visit the northern regions, such as the Caspian Sea coast and the Alborz Mountains, summer (June to August) is the best time. The weather is pleasantly warm, with temperatures ranging from 20° to 30°, perfect for enjoying the lush landscapes and outdoor activities.
For those interested in the desert regions like Yazd and Kerman, the winter months from December to February are preferable. The temperatures are cooler, ranging from 5° to 20°, making it more comfortable to explore the arid landscapes and ancient architecture.
In summary, Iran offers something special in every season, but spring and autumn provide the most pleasant weather for a comprehensive exploration of this fascinating country.
