I have fired off an email to the Iranian Embassy explaining my trip, we'll see what comes back.
Simon, these latest posts is making me think that I (with a UK passport) will not be able to go through Iran, is that the case? I'm not bothered about the danger of either Iran or Pakistan, but the practicality. I've already eschewed going via the 'Stans because of proximity to Russia (and the fact that I didn't relish crossing the Caspian sea, but had opted to go via Astrakhan in Russia, before Putin insisted on his jaunt), also that there was a significant cost in getting one's vehicle through China, my goal is India.
From what I'm reading, it looks like at the very minimum I'll have to pay to have an escort to cross Iran, is that so?
I have good contacts in western Pakistan (Balochistan, Taftan border post area), if anyone needs advice or assistance. On the ‘London Road’…
Haha….back in the days when you could get a UK passport reissued within a human lifespan ��
Just re-read this. Cracking trip report Simon.
I know a guy in Iran now, he was in India since Covid and is on an Africa Twin (original) He is German BTW and traveling with a Cat too.
