Hello Hamood,
1) the ferry is going from Sharjah to Bandar Abbas. 2) the iran people are very friendly but the paper work to get into iran was horrible. 3) in Iran - Yazd and almost Esfahan have been wonderful places. (my trip was a round trip - so i have "go back" to Shiraz and Bandar Abbas - back to Sharjah/Dubai.. in 2005 i have done a turkey trip - so i could tell you from that trip you can go both way in Turkey - Van -Diyarbakir - Adana - Konya to Istanbul (or do the mediterrian sea) or go Dogoubayazit - Erzurum - Trabzon and the Black sea Route. Both routes are very good to drive, full of wonderful landscapes. Only be careful around the area of Van, Diyabakir and Dogoubayazit - there are a lot of military controls (but they are very friendly), but a lot of children are throwing stones to foreign people - that is not really funny. Henning friends of mine had pass the border from Iran to Turkey and back - and say that this borderpassing was easy.
