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 Istanbul.
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.
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.
