MotoDiscovery Is Bringing Adventure Travel Back To Iran With The Iran Motorcycle Tour

The Islamic Republic of Iran is not always on travelers list of places that are a must visit. In 2006 MotoDiscovery learned that this is a mistake. We operated our first motorcycle tour in Iran in 2006 and have been itching to get back ever since. The wait is finally over. The month of May 2016 we are going back and want you to come with us. This 21 day 2,700 mile tour is going to be one you don’t want to miss.

The Iran Motorcycle Tour consists of primarily paved road riding varying in condition. Riders on this tour will need to quickly adapt to the local Iranian driving habits which is always part of adjusting to foreign environments. When visiting Iran travelers must consider the experience an adventure. The Republic requires visitors to be tolerant of native cultures and traditions. The tour is perfect for singles or couples who are spirited and experienced travelers.

The 2006 ride was the embodiment of MotoDiscovery’s adventure spirit staging the first ever organized ride for Americans through the country. It was also quite controversial. Relations between Iran and the West were at an all-time low. Even with less than perfect relations we had always heard that the experience with the people was one legendary. We were not disappointed. When it came to hospitality and willingness to engage with us the people of Iran did not disappoint.

Relations between the two governments have gotten better. They are far from “normal”, but the tensions have eased quite a bit. We view Iran as a fresh frontier for adventure travel and a place that we are thoroughly looking forward to visiting.

As you can imagine facilitating a motorcycle tour in Iran is not easy, but it is what we do at MotoDiscovery. We will be riding BMW motorcycles sourced from Turkey and position them on the frontier of Iran in the Eastern Turkey city of Van. While traveling in Turkey and Iran we will ride in the Shadows of Mount Ararat and make way to the land once known as Persia. For over two weeks we will ride through the Republic of Iran and experience the sights, sounds, architecture, and culture of this great Nation. We will dip our toes in the Caspian Sea and enjoy the hospitality and culture of the Iranian people that we know will surprise you.

If you have ever wondered about Iran the MotoDiscovery Iran Motorcycle Tour is a great way to immerse yourself in Iranian culture while experiencing a once in a lifetime ride. Visas and other documentation are required but will be managed by MotoDiscovery. This adventure tour is great for couples looking to travel together as long as the ladies agree to the Hijab law of the land and wear the traditional loosely fitting head scarf while in Iran.

The Iran MotorCycle Tour from MotoDiscovery is a truly unique experience riding in one of the world most historically significant lands. Call us today to learn more about the Iran Motorcycle Tour. 800-233-0564
