LICENSED TOUR GUIDE

Real insider tips from a professional tour guide who walks these streets every single day

Hi, I’m Rose !

I am a certified tour guide and photographer licensed by the Turkish Republic Ministry of Culture and Tourism, with over ten years of experience showing travellers the real Turkiye.

Unlike most travel bloggers, I didn’t quit my job to travel, it is my job to travel! I was trained formally 4 years as a tour guide and 2 years as a photographer, earning my certifications from the Turkish Republic Ministry of Culture and Tourism. But no classroom taught me what ten years on the streets of Istanbul did.

EXPLORE BY DESTINATION

Turkey is one of those rare countries where every region tells a completely different story. From Istanbul’s layered skyline to the surreal volcanic valleys of Cappadocia, the turquoise coastline of Antalya, and the Roman grandeur of Ephesus, no two destinations here feel alike. Whether you’re a history lover, a beach traveller, or simply someone who wants to eat extraordinarily well, Turkey has a corner made exactly for you.

Join My Tours


I offer both private tours for individuals, couples and families, and small group tours where you’ll meet fellow travellers who share your curiosity. Either way, the experience is carefully guided, never rushed, and always personal.

Whether you’re joining a group or booking privately, you’ll have my full attention, plenty of time to ask questions, and the freedom to linger wherever Istanbul catches your heart.

This is about showing you what Istanbul is really like — not a glossy postcard version, but the living, breathing, delicious, occasionally chaotic city I’ve called home my whole life.
