When I decided to study political science and international relations, my dream was to be a diplomat and have a chance to learn about new cultures and work in foreign countries. In my sophomore year at the university, I travelled to Moscow to represent my country at an international student conference and it was my first trip to a foreign country. There I realized that travelling was my passion, not being a diplomat. However I graduated and began to work in a travel company in Istanbul where I had the opportunity to travel all around the world. Before residing in Norway, I had worked as a tour leader and a guide in many countries. I come to know and meet many people from different cultures and nationalities which contributed me to have a broader sense of the world and gain precious experience. I work as an authorized tour guide in our unique city of Ålesund and in the surroundings which always rank high in Norway's top-ten-must-see lists. I love to tell about the history, art, architecture, stories and general facts about the city and the country which I love to live in. I have BA degree in political science and international relations. I had worked as a tour leader for many groups in more than 40 countries before I resided in Norway. I have completed the official tour guide course by Ålesund Guide Association and have been working as a licensed tour guide in English and Turkish languages. NONE

Maybe you will see the trolls maybe you will not, but there is one thing you can be sure about that you will admire the magnificent natural landscape. We will drive through the picturesque fjord towns alongside the majestic Storfjord before reaching the famous strawberry town of Valldal. The viewing point at Gudbrandsjuvet gorge lets you take nice pictures of gurgling whirlpools that skirt through the narrow and deep ravine below. As the highlight of the tour, Trollstigen ride is a once in a lifetime experience drive which will make you excited and nerve-racking at the same time. Probably you will be relieved at the end that you were not the driver.
