Is Iran safe for Tourists?

November 3, 2019
Safety in Iran

The first question that many tourists ask and one of the most common things searched on Google is this phrase: “Is Iran Safe?”
Unlike what many tourists imagine, Iran is a very safe place and many travelers have described it as “The safest country they’ve ever been to”. Iranians are famous for being such good hosts. They always get excited when they see foreign people are visiting their country and even invite tourists to eat at their tables without even knowing them! If you fit in local costumes, you are unlikely to be treated with anything.

Iranians are interested to socialize with you, know about you and your country and help you with anything. Crimes against tourists are very rare in Iran and many tourists have written in their journals: “Travelling in Iran was even safer than it was in Europe”.
Although Iran is a relatively low-crime country but you have to keep important things like your wallet or your phone near you in crowded areas like the downtown or bazaars and public transportation.
