Hello I have been a traveler, a guide, and a travel designer since my student days in Ankara where I studied political science which, gave me a chance to travel to as many as 70 countries, mostly in the old world and South America. I conducted tours to destinations like India, China, South Africa, Chile, etc. I am a reader of the ancient and colonial history of the globe as well as anthropology and philosophy. I find myself lucky since having been born and raised in one of the most ancient countries of the world (Turkey); Then, having lived and guided in Vancouver, arguably, at one time, one of the remotest cities on earth until the railway arrived in 1887, now a leading exemplar metropolis of the 21 century; Finally, I have been enjoying a post-urban life, in serenity, in all-tranquil New Brunswick, where I consider Canada is in its utmost! In a sense, this is a closing of a circle for me. As a child, I was a physician's son in a village around which there was still a nomadic lifestyle that was yielding to peasantry rapidly. Later in the Metropolises of Turkey and Europe, I witnessed how the peasant lifestyle was being overtaken by urban life. As a middle-aged person, I observed what I call a "near atomized individual" in one of the major post-industrial magnets on the planet. Therefore, I have been enjoying the chance of gazing at various "human landscapes" or snapshots from different cross-sections of the greater social transformation of mankind. To me, Atlantic Canada is a perfect scene for an up-and-coming post epidemic cottage lifestyle for emergent new middle classes. Beautiful but not so busy, Great a place to grow up, great to retire, and great to take breaks from the ever-intensifying treadmill of the major cities. Let's explore together this unique, historic ocean country. All my tours can be customized upon request. - M.A. Degree in Ancient Politics - Bachelor's Degree in Political Science - Professional tour guide since 1991 - Experienced guide for Mediterranean and West Coast & The Rockies in Canada as well as the East Coast. - Memberships in Canadian Tour Guides Association and Chamber of Tour Guides in İstanbul.

    What a wonderful day! Kenan went out of his way to accommodate all our wishes. We went to many off the beaten path stops that were last minute changes and he had great suggestions as to the types of things we would enjoy.This tour gave us a superlative overview of the fantastic scenery and many of the local highlights.

    This was a great tour and Keenan is a great guide! Because the cruise line shortened our time in port, Keenan quickly adjusted our schedule, for what turned out to be an outstanding tour. We started with the iconic St John's reversing tides, saw both low and high , and then proceeded to St Martin caves.and fishing village. Although there are many other tourists...

    Although seeing the Hopewell Rocks was a good experience the time it took to get there was very long. It was a long time riding in a car without much too see inbetween. I wish the driver would have explained the time involved from place to place. I would not do this tour again from the cruise ship but instead go see more local sites.
