My name is Ertunga and I was born in 1977 in Kusadası, where I still live. I graduated from the University of Philology, Department of English Language and Literature. I worked as an English Teacher for few years but I understood that it is not really what I wanted so I finished my short teaching career. Then I decided to study History and Archaeology and use my knowledge on this field. In 2001 I became professional tour guide, with the license issued by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Since then I have worked for many agencies as an independent guide and I have been meeting tourists from all over the world. During this fourteen years, I have also been organizing private tours, and working with ToursByLocals is perfect option for me. Since I grew up and have lived all my life in a touristic town, guiding has always been my dream. Very early I understood that it would be the most convenient job for my lifestyle, because I like history, archaeology, traveling and meeting different people and cultures, and the most important of everything, I love my country and want to help people see it's beauty and understand it's history and culture and at the same time, earning money from what I really enjoy doing; is a great feeling. I have guiding experience in all areas in Turkey, but my favorite tours are definitely those in the Aegean and Istanbul. If you woukd like to have a multy day tour in Turkey, you are allways wellcome to contact me to discuss your program. I am looking forward to meeting you in my country and showing you all its beauties! Tour Guiding License issued by The Ministry Of Culture & Tourism Of Turkey, license number: 09-005832.

    Our guide had taken ill, so Oscar was nice enough to take our group on a tour of Ephesus and House of Mary. He was an excellent guide that is knowledgeable and professional. You can tell that he had a lot of experience as a guide. He knew just what to do to handle a large group of 15 of us and catered to our needs and answered all our questions. We enjoyed our day in...

    Ertunga was wonderful customizing our two-day tour of the cities of Revelations to our interests. His tour was extra special because he was speaking from his heart, from his Bible and from personal experience. It was a thrill also to get to know him. He adapted the tour to include Pamukkale with a golf cart and a brief stop at Colossae where excavation will start next...
