Need help with rough guide on a 3 countries 3 weeks middle east itinerary
 
Got 3 weeks in october to travel, thinking of starting off with
1. Iran, tehran, then travel north to do some skiing, then south to visit shiraz and persepolis.a. a. travelling between tehran to shiraz- should i just take iran air?
b. where can i fly from shiraz? are there connecting flights from shiraz to either beirut or amman?

2. Lebanon, not going to spend too much time in Beirut, was thinking of shuffling off at leasr 2-3 days in wadi rum (i travel alone- should i just get say a camel instead of a 4wd?), thinking of doing also jeita grotto, then maybe cool off in byblos

3. Jordan- going to spend maybe 1- 2 nights at the dead sea at a resort hopefully, of course- Petra

Any recommendations/ must-sees in these places? thanks in advance.

Dear Aleckii,
If you plan to ski in Iran, it’s better to come around November & December. Beside skiing, you can also visit Tehran, Shiraz & Persepolis.
Regarding flights I should say that from Tehran to Shiraz, you can choose Iranair Airline, Aseman Airline or Mahan Airline.
On the other hand, you can flight from Shiraz International airport to other destinations by Qatar Airways, Emirate Airlines, Turkish airlines, Gulf Air and …
From Shiraz to Jordan or Beirut there are Qatar Airways or Air Arabia.

Yours
Shadi
