Our vision and mission
For us tourism means human mobility. Human mobility means opportunities for intercultural dialogue. Intercultural dialogue means global understanding and peace. For us tourism is a vehicle of peace. Based on this vision, which reflect the Amman Declaration and the message of the International Institute for Peace through Tourism founded by Louis d’Amore, our mission is promote and establish a new paradigm of tourism development in Iran, based on communities participation, preservation of the sociocultural traits and richness of the country and at the same time the promotion of the intercultural dialogue with the visitors.

Iran has so much to offer , recently travelled to Shiraz from Teheran I saw so many Caravanserai I thought going through them as they did many years ago . I personally interested in archeological sites that are not presently in tourism tours .
