Iran: Tehran and Sidetrips

As he's done with previous programs on Israel, Egypt, and eastern Turkey, Rick takes us beyond Europe to a place that's rich with history…and mystery. In this first of two half-hour shows on Iran, Rick dodges traffic in Tehran, enjoys the tranquility of a nearby village (Abyaneh), and encounters both anti-American propaganda and a warm welcome from everyday Iranians. This episode of Rick Steves' Europe was created with footage from the first half of the one-hour television special, "Rick Steves' Iran: Yesterday and Today."
