Guide #56571
Dear Traveler, I am Tolga and wish you a warm welcome to Turkey! I have been in Kusadasi whole my life. My father was one of the first guides in the whole country. He used to take me to Ephesus when ı had five years of age and would let me speak about the history of the ancient site. As time passed, I decided to follow in his footsteps and became a guide. I am a professional tour guide since 2010 and my expertise is in Roman history and Biblical history of Ephesus. I enjoy in meeting with new people and I take pride in showing the Turkish culture to my guests as they enjoy the sightseeing, history, cousine and Turkish hospitality. I am especially interested in making shore excursions for Ephesus to Cruise guests, as I know they need to create a perfect balance of time and quality. If you are looking for a personalised experience, I believe to be the right choice. I look forward to your inquiries and your arrival! I am a professional tour guide for 12 years. Throughout my career, ı guided in Turkey, Italy, Bosna Hersek, Montenegro, Croatia, Cyprus, Rhodes, Crete. I have studied in university Italian literature and Roman History. I have read the Bible in big part so ı have a good understanding of Biblical history and can relate it to the history of the sites we will visit. I dont have any restrictions as ı have neccessary licenses for guiding. Professional Official License Number : 006293 I operate under Travelshow Travel agency. License Number : 11392

Our trip to Ephesus was fantastic as was our guide Tolga. He was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to the neads of our aging bodies. He was also very flexible in allowing us to skip wahf we wanted and focus longer on what interested us. His father was a highly respected tour guide and he taught his son well. Absolutely nothing negative to say.

Tolga is a second generation Turk guide and extremely knowledgeable of Ephesus. He know everyone on it the area of our tour and is obviously highly respected. We loved his guide style of moving through the sites quickly and thoroughly, ahead of the large tour groups. Tolga listens well to interests of our tour. Cool Mercedes van and great driver.
