When booking Iran it’s very hard to get hotels and local flights in Iran from the UK. When I came across 1stQuest I chat to Sorour and she made everything easy and simple. She helped me book all hotel... See more

Their chatbox especially handled by Sorour is a life saver for last minute booking in Iran. I couldn't be more grateful how she helped me in many of booking, as I travelled to different cities in Iran.

It's very easy for me to search the flight and book the ticket.
Safe Platform
The UX still needs lots of improvements but I am thankful that this platform exists.
The website loads very slowly.
No Iran Visa / kein Iran Visum
€27 is far too high a price to apply for a visa.
There is a €5 money-back guarantee in case the visa is rejected. However, if the visa is rejected, the €5 is not refunded.
There is contradictory information on the website:
Firstly, regarding the processing time – the visa is issued no earlier than after 7 working days.
Secondly, regarding the visa itself – you do not receive a visa directly, but rather an authorization code, which must be used to collect the visa at an embassy.
Communication with the company is also inconsistent and unclear.
Very good
Very good:
because their offers appeal to both people with a lot of money and those with less,
and because they are friendly, fast, and helpful.
It’s good
It’s good. But you could improve by adding a general map with the exact locations of hotels marked on it, complete with ratings and pricing. I, and real travelers, use general maps all the time to book hotel rooms. Also, if you could make hotel bookings possible for that day itself, that would be helpful for last minute bookings.

I higly recommend 1stQuest. The customer service was very helpful as well fast. They helped me to write my itineray trip in the right way.

I was applying for a visa but you only apply for authorization and I paid 70 for that, normally it's free, and you wrote on your site that you can apply for a visa, but in fact no you don't
A good way to book accommodations in…
A good way to book accommodations in Iran, and the customer service staff gives immediate response to my inquiries, and follow up the hotel booking confirmations. They offer better price. I appreciated their service.
After booking the ticket
After booking the ticket, I'm not sure if it was successful. The refund has not arrived yet.
Easy IR Iran visa application process
A very easy IR Iran visa application process. 1stQuest were emailed confirmations from company aswell as personal emails from staff offering support.
A very efficient result, with the e-visa approved within three days.
Hotels bookings can be made with chosen accommodation. Tours can also be booked.
Trip to Tehran
I would like to express my gratitude to this travel agency.
This was our first experience of visiting Iran, so we had no idea how to arrange things there, which apps are working, how to pay, how to dress, what to see in our free time.
I have found 1stQuest on the internet, there were other options, but I've chosen them based on the excellent reviews they have and it turned out to be a great choice!
Sorour - an amazing lady, answering your questions seconds after you ask them, arranged all the things for us perfectly: visa, hotel, transfers from and to the airport, city tour. She was always in contact, always there to help. We are very happy with this trip, I would definitely love to come back to Iran again and definitely will ask 1STQuest for the further assistance!
I was inquiring about the visa process…
I was inquiring about the visa process and reached out to the agent via WhatsApp. All communication was respectful and inquisitive in nature, how ever the response was extremely delayed. All correspondence was not clear and it one worded. Needless to say, this not a responsive and helpful agency to book for Iran. I highly suggest using another platform, I waited a week and still no response or explanation towards obtaining my visa or even beginning the process. I was not only shocked that this agency is open and running but that they are on the top of the list when you can find another travel agency that provides excellent services.
It can take one or two days for reservation confirmation. but, i had no issues with this site.
I used this platform twice, and in both cases they were excellent.
It was great to be able to book
It was great to be able to book Iranian air tickets and hotels on the English site, which are not available on regular popular travel sites. In addition, I received a quick response to my numerous inquiries. What's more, they were very polite and helpful. Their website is also extremely easy to use. This is a must-have site for foreigners traveling to Iran.
