Are you looking for a place that offers sea, sand, cultural history, and a little bit of fun? If so, it seems like you know full well where to go for the best holidays: CYPRUS!! Congratulations on taking a look at my profile and watching my introduction video. You have just been entitled to an amazing experience during your stay in Cyprus. As I am sure you know from your past experiences, it's the people next to you who make or break a great trip! That's why you need to ensure that you are accompanied by the best tour guide you can possibly have. One who is well educated, very knowledgeable, always punctual, very helpful, resourceful, with a great sense of humor, and of course, a big smile on her face. See how lucky you are? You have already found the one! To be able to make the most of your trip abroad, you need someone who can be a mirror of the culture you want to explore. You need someone global, meaning someone with the possession of global knowledge and at the same of local expertise. You need someone who can adapt their schedule to yours. Last but not least, you need someone for whom smiling and being positive is a modus vivendi. The good news is that you are definitely at the right address for all that. My name, Sirin, means sweet and smiling. I am grateful to my parents for giving me this name, as it's just the perfect name for me. I finished high school in New York and pursued undergraduate studies in English Language and Literature at Istanbul University. When I completed my studies, I had something different in mind for a profession. As I have seen many countries in my life, it was very easy for me to help people make decisions about their holidays. It was in 1991 when I took courses and became a professional tour guide of the Turkish Cypriot Tour Guides Association. After investing about 30 years in travel agency management, we parted ways with my former husband, and I decided that I would like to dedicate myself solely to the joy of guiding people out in the field instead of spending precious time in confined office buildings. I have found my true calling in guiding individuals and groups as a freelance guide. For the past decade, I have been flying like a butterfly from Paphos to Famagusta, from Larnaca to Kyrenia, guiding happy people and adding to their happiness. I can be serious with the serious, funny with the funny, old with the old, a child with the child, and fun with all. Rest assured. The biggest assurance for that is my past customers, some of whom keep coming back to do the same tours again and again just because they truly enjoy them. Because they always like discovering the new and the hidden. They know that I love keeping myself constantly updated about what's new and fun to do in Cyprus. Everyone knows that I have a great curiosity about the interesting facets of Cypriot life. Trust me- You don't need someone who can book you a table at the most popular restaurant in town- anyone can do that! You need someone who knows how to book where the kitchen is the cleanest or where the ingredients are the freshest. Someone who knows a restaurant that grows their organic products, or simply where the locals go for the best local menu. You can find various tour programs on my page, but these programs can also be tailor-made. A day trip or maybe a week's trip. I can create bespoke tours and events for individuals, corporations, and groups - Just ask! Are you having difficulties deciding about the tours you want to take, or not sure about a hotel reservation? Just send me a message, and I'll get back to you within a couple of hours. From its earliest days, Cyprus has been a bustling hub of civilizations that welcomed other cultures with open arms, just like me, ready to welcome you! Now is your chance to learn more about the lovely Mediterranean island, including its rich history and unique social mosaic, from a very special local expert. If I were you, I wouldn't postpone the chance. So what are you waiting for? *Professional Tour Guide since 1991 (34 years of experience), born and brought up in Cyprus, and have already traveled to 82 countries. * A special license for guiding in Nicosia of Ottoman Heritage. *A briefing given to a group of 200 people about the Cyprus culture and lifestyle *A storyteller of Nicosia, Famagusta, and Kyrenia to a cellphone application called Piri *A writer in a local newspaper wrote about my worldwide travel experiences *Experienced individuals and groups for daily and weekly tours and event organizations * A storyteller for the Cyprus Digital Heritage of UNDP * A volunteer book reader for the disabled library * Elected to the Board of Turkish Cypriot Guides Association in November 2023- 2025 yrs * Elected to the Board of Turkish Cypriot Guides Association in November 2025-2027 yrs * Appointed by the Ministry of Tourism Department to give courses for the new guides. I am only licensed to guide you in North Cyprus due to the political situation. Therefore, I am not allowed to guide you in the Archaeological Sites as a guide in the Republic of Cyprus, but I can give you information as a Cypriot.
