What Wikivoyage says about moving around
  • Get inShuttle taxis and green minibuses operate between the airport and Shahed Station on the red line of the metro.
  • Get inAt Shahed station, get out to the parking area (there is only one exit and you can't miss it) and on the very left you will see green minibuses.
  • Get aroundAs with the rest of the country private and shared taxis abound in Tehran, although you may find flagging down a shared taxi more difficult amid the traffic and chaos, while private taxis are more expensive than in the smaller cities.
  • Get aroundIf you want to get around by shared taxi, your best bet is to hop from square to square, as drivers will be reluctant to pick you up if your shouted destination deviates too far from their route.
