Thanks for the great replies, all.

I have a separate question about Iran guides: I prefer to work directly with a guide and make sure we're compatible, rather than have a tour company assign me a random guide who I don't know if we'd get along with. Is it possible to work directly with your guide as an American, rather than hope your tour company assigns you a great one? It's a lot to spend 2 weeks with a mediocre guide you can't get rid of.

Thanks for that; I'm also pedantic so I appreciate it.
