Emre K.

Hi, I'm a local citizen who enjoys his city, tries to explore his city everyday by walking throughout the street that hasn't been before, What I like most about my city, İzmir, is its local tastes, patterns and people both living in down town and around the city especially in villages. I'm here to be company with you, to meet new people, to learn foreign culture and to enjoy the time we spend together while experiencing İzmir with people I've never met before. We can experience sports like sailing, hiking, scuba diving, and also artistic and cultural activities like visiting art galleries, museums, ruins. I'd like to welcome you sincerely in İzmir and would like to offer you accommodation in Yenifoça where you can enjoy the sea, weather and neighborhood.

Raghda A.

My name is Raghda. I have been working as a local Guide in Venice for almost 2 years, taking clients on walking tours on the historic island. I am passionate about meeting people from all around the world and exchanging stories and experiences. I have lived in Venice since 2020 so I have built up quite a decent knowledge about the city and its sights. In the beginning, I was showing around friends and family who came to visit, then I realized that I have gained pretty decent information to start doing this as a job because it has become exciting to rediscover sights and even build up more knowledge as time goes by. I enjoy interacting with different cultures and nationalities. I have lived and worked in several countries like Latvia, Poland, Spain, Turkey, Germany, Malta, and different cities in Italy as well. I will be taking you around the various districts of Venice exploring hidden gems and mysterious locations, as well as the main attractions and highlights of the city. I will be your GPS & storyteller for the unforgettable hours of concise yet enriched and detailed visit to the historical island. We will go around various districts of Venice and tell stories about churches and historical sites. By the end of the tour, I could suggest good restaurants in various districts.

Deniz K.

Hello travelling foodies, Deniz here! My passion for cooking brought me to Paris almost 20 years ago, where I trained as a chef at Le Cordon Bleu. After working in top kitchens and pastry labs for many years, I have discovered the food nerd in me alongside a new passion for food research which led me to pursue a master’s degree in food studies. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of cultural, geographic and historical forces that shape recipes, food traditions and cuisines which I love sharing with others on my tours. I lead gastronomic adventures through bustling markets, specialty food stores, historic wine cellars, iconic Parisian institutions as well as hidden gems off the beaten path. I believe that tasting authentic flavors and learning about the stories behind them is the best way to appreciate the rich diversity of any culture. It will be an immense joy to share my knowledge and passion for food and wine with you through your Parisian food journey.

Muzaffer E.

Welcome to Türkiye! Your passionate local guide (originally from Istanbul!) is here! It is my pleasure to customize my tours for your unique experiences according to your requests. After getting my bachelor's degree in econometrics as a valedictorian and working in finance and foreign trade sectors in Türkiye for several years, I went to the USA. When I had studied my master's in economics at George Washington University (GWU), I was offered two prestigious postgraduate scholarships by The University of Nottingham (UoN) and so, I moved to the UK. After getting my PGCert in economics from The UoN, I moved back to Istanbul and started my master's in econometrics in order to pursue a PhD. However, at the same time, I took my first steps towards my professional carreer in tourism. During my life in Washington DC, for about 4 years, I had experienced not only being a volunteer translator for Turkish delegations and international students hosted by non-profit organizations sponsored by the US government, but also being a volunteer guide of them for cultural tours including the Smithsonian Institution, the world's largest museum complex. Therefore, after moving back to Istanbul, I desired presenting Istanbul - my lovely hometown! - and Türkiye to tourists in the right way and completed the tourist guidance program at Cappadocia University as a full scholarship scholar. I also hold an associate of arts degree in cultural heritage and tourism and have been studying art history at Istanbul Medeniyet University. I have been qualified by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the Republic of Türkiye, as an expert professional guide in Istanbul / Cappadocia / Ephesus, Kusadasi and on the Eastern Roman Empire / Gobekli Tepe and Upper Mesopotamia / the Seven Churches of Revelation. Looking forward to meeting you on your next trip to Türkiye. Thank you for your time and interest. All the best, Muzaffer

Sedat C.

Merhaba(Turkish) First of all, welcome to my profile. I don't want to keep it too long and bore you, as I believe my life story will be much more interesting the day we embark on a tour together :) I was born in Kuwait and lived there for many years. After completing my education at an Indian school, my family and I permanently moved to Türkiye in 2003. After completing high school and university in Turkiye, I began my career as a Police Officer. While working as a Tourism Police officer, I discovered my passion for traveling. In 2018, I took the initiative to resign and ventured into the path of becoming a Tourist Guide. I have traveled to more than 15 countries and still love exploring. I believe traveling is the best investment one can make in themselves. I am fluent in English and Arabic. I believe that living abroad and studying in a foreign school are crucial factors for communication with people of different languages, religions, and races. Looking forward to meeting you on tours soon. Best wishes, Sedat

Tuğba U.

Dear Traveler, I am Tugba. I am very lucky to be living in Kusadasi. My beautiful town is one of the leading Ports for Cruises. Cruise guests are especially interested in making visits to the ancient city Ephesus. As for me, I love walking, reading books, and showing people what I find interesting and valuable in my country. This is a country whose history goes back thousands of years. There is never a shortage of seeing, visiting, and enjoying. I became a professional tour guide in 2010 and have been guiding ever since. Guiding is more than a profession for me, it is an art and a show. In time, I became an expert in making private Ephesus tours/shore excursions. I believe I can help you make your dream come true. Not only will we have an unforgettable experience in Ephesus but also we will get to know the local people, traditions, and cuisine. . Let's travel back in time and walk the streets of this ancient site together. . I will be delighted if I will have a chance to show you my country's best sides.

Doğan M.

There is a saying in the Middle East called "hello". If you look in the dictionary; It will translate as "hello" but the real meaning of this word is "you will find friendship here, feel comfortable". Merhaba, I'm Dogan. I am 27 years old, I have a degree in both international relations and international trade, a master's degree in guidance, and I am currently an art history student. I have been a student for many years and my area of expertise is having a pleasant time with a low budget - just like students.

Maksut C.

I'm a native Istanbulite guide and I have a great love and knowledge of Istanbul and Turkey. I strongly believe that no one can show you the true soul of a place better than an insider who will open the doors to new cultures for you. As an Istanbulite Tour Guide; I have no scripted speeches or monologues. I am enthusiastic and I love what I do passionately. Because of my local and area-specific travel information, I consider myself an ambassador of culture and my mission is to create unique, innovative vacation tours that not only showcase the history, archeology and beauty of my country you visit, but also to help travelers discover the soul of the people and their wonderful hospitality. So, you'll catch the excitement when you hear the stories behind the facade, which was carved onto the walls, that even most residents don’t know. After providing literally hundreds of tours over the years and especially after receiving high satisfaction ratings from the travelers in my groups I decided to share my own first-hand Turkey travel knowledge and experience, the result of my own personal quest of the wonders of Turkey and its best representations of the culture such as local customs, daily life, cuisine, special events. As a licensed and private Tour Guide, it is my pleasure to build a tour that focuses on your interests, preferences and whims and make your tour experience the most memorable and informative that you could wish for. Let me liberate you from the confines of a fixed itinerary. Travel with me in a way that provides the most entertaining, informative, amusing and memorable experience and enjoy the freedom to explore with an itinerary tailor-made to suit your interests and maximize your time. Let me know exactly what you wish for and together we will construct an itinerary based on your areas of interest and must-see sites. Please contact me for all your questions and requirements.
