There is just one sentence to sum up my experience in Shiraz with Ben and its family: perfect stay with a perfect host. He is an honest, open-minded an interesting host who wants to show you the "real Shiraz" - including touristic and non-touristic sites. If you have a problem, Ben will solve it - in my case, he helped me to find a photocamera as my camera was defect. He could manage to find one so that I could take pictures from Shiraz and the sites (thank you again for that Ben!) Combined with his deep knowledge about persian history and culture I could experience enjoyable and intersting days in this beautiful city. The highlight was the visit of the pink mosque and of course the visits of Tacht-e Dschamschid (Persepolis) and Naqsh-e Rostam (Necropolis), were Ben is an expert about all details. On top, he organised for me one of just 6 VR-glasses which made my experience even better. Besides that I felt really welcomed by his mom and dad who gave me the feeling that I was a part of their family. The daily fresh meals were delicious and the room as well as the toilet and shower always clean. As I could find all needed information in his description (all costs for different activities and services are listed and are really fair), I always knew what costs will occur, so no surprises during my stay. I want to thank Ben and his family for this stay and I will be back to visit them the next time, I will be in Iran. Kheili mam noon dust

Barbod was a great host! He picked me up from airport and showed me Tehran during my first days in Iran. We had no time pressure, he took time to explain me the different sights and places in Tehran. He showed me, how Iranian people are living, what their culture and history is and how it is to live in Tehran. Moreover, he arranged different barbecues together with his friends, so that I could get in touch with them and get a feeling about their life’s. Barbod is taking really really good care of his guests and does anything to give them an authentic feeling about Iran. Everytime I will come back to Tehran, I know whom to call!
