When deciding when to go to Iran you must first work out where you'd like to go. Temperatures can vary wildly: when it's in Tabriz it might be in Bandar Ahbas, but for most people spring and autumn are the most pleasant times to visit. At other times, the seasons have advantages and disadvantages depending on where you are. For example, the most agreeable time to visit the Persian Gulf coast is during winter, when the humidity is low and temperatures mainly in the 20s.
