Staying safe

• •Iran is still a relatively low-crime country, although thefts and muggings occur. Keep your wits about you, and take the usual precautions against pickpockets in crowded bazaars and buses.
• •Although its strict Islamic moral code is well known, Iranian laws are not as strict as those of Saudi Arabia.
• •Perceptions of outsiders: The chances of a Westerner facing anti-Western sentiment as a traveller are slim.
• •Some Iranian-Americans have been detained and accused of espionage, as were three American hikers in 2009 who allegedly strayed across into Iran from Iraqi Kurdistan.
• •Photography: There are a lot of military and other sensitive facilities in Iran.
• •Women: Female travellers should not encounter any major problems when visiting Iran, as long as they obey the local laws – including those on dressing.

Staying healthy

• •Iran has state-of-the-art medical facilities in all its major cities.
• •Apart from being up to date with your usual travel vaccinations (tetanus, polio, etc.) no special preparation is needed for travel to Iran.
• •Tap water is safe to drink in most of the country (and especially the cities), although you may find the chalkiness and taste off-putting in some areas (mainly Qom, Yazd, Hormozgan and Boushehr provinces).
