Hi Goggstrotter
From your posts it seems it has taken around 20 days for you to get your Iranian visas in Turkey - and you already had to wait 2 weeks in Turkey for your Palastinian visa!! What have you been doing all this time?!
This topic is interesting to me because we will be doing that route in 2004 and I thought Iran was the one visa I would have to organise here in the UK, but it seems we will be able to get it in Turkey. (And get Pakistan and India visas en route as well).
Actually, it seems to me that we will not need to get any vises here in the UK and that we can get them all en route (see a rough first draft of our proposed route on my website).
Also of interest to me is the weather conditions in eastern turkey. From what I can gather it becomes impossible to get through to Iran once it gets to cold/snowy. We will be leaving UK end of July and I am hoping to get to Iran (via north Africa) by end of November. Please let me know what the conditions are like when you do your crossing as you are going to be doing it the same time as we will. Good luck!!
