Iran is technically still visitable for some leisure travelers, but it is not a normal tourism destination right now. Official advisories from multiple governments describe extreme security volatility, flight and airspace disruption, sanctions-driven banking problems, and a serious risk of detention, especially for dual nationals. Travel that does happen appears limited and high-risk rather than broad-based tourism.
