1. By Car / Private Taxi (Best in light traffic)
This is usually the most direct roads, though it depends heavily on traffic conditions.
- Route: Exit the Airport ➔ Enter Ayatollah Saeedi Highway (Southbound) ➔ Merge onto Azadegan Expressway (Eastbound) ➔ Take the exit to Imam Ali Expressway (Southbound) ➔ Exit onto Fadaian-e-Eslam Street ➔ Continue until you reach the hospital near Shahr-e-Rey Square.
- Tip: Always check live traffic using map apps like Neshan or Balad before you start, as traffic in Tehran can be unpredictable.
2. By Metro (Most reliable & traffic-free)
This is the recommended method to avoid the heavy traffic of Tehran’s highways.
- Step 1: Board the metro at Mehrabad Airport Station (Line 4) and ride until “Darvazeh Dolat” Station.
- Step 2: Transfer to Line 1 (The Red Line) going Southbound toward “Kahrizak”.
- Step 3: Get off at “Shahr-e-Rey” Station.
- Arrival: From the Shahr-e-Rey station, it is a very short distance to Firoozabadi Hospital. You can take a local taxi or, if you prefer, it is a manageable walk to Fadaian-e-Eslam Street.
3. By Ride-Hailing Apps (Snapp/Tapsi)

- How to: Open apps like Snapp or Tapsi.
- Action: Set “Mehrabad Airport” as the pickup point and “Firoozabadi Hospital” as the destination.
