Hi, I was born in Turkey but grew up in Norway because of my fathers job. Came back to Turkey as a teenager and finished my education here. I started working in tourism industry in 1990. Apart from guiding I worked in many different branches within the industry such as hotel rep, operation and contract manager, and destination manager for different travel agencies. But my biggest passions was always guiding as I love meeting new people from different countries and introducing them to the amazing culture and history of my country. I can speak multiple languages fluently such as English, Turkish, Norwegian and Swedish. Because of my working past within the tourism industry I gained many qualifications. I will be delighted if I can have a chance to show you my country through my eyes. I can run the tours described here or we can customize tours to meet your exact requirements.

Overview of your Bodrum tour

One of the world's finest museums of underwater archeology housed in a 15th century castle built by the Knights of St. John. The world's oldest known shipwreck exhibition rates a 'must see' on everyone's list. The Mausoleum of Halikarnassus was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Amphitheater seating about 13. 000 spectators the theater dates to the region of Mausolus but with modifications added by the Romans. Out of all our favourite things to do in Turkey, shopping in Bodrum is near the top of our list. The diversity and choice of the town centre and smaller coastal resorts ensures we will find anything we want. Shops on the Bodrum peninsula, sell everything from cheap and tacky to expensive and sophisticated. Browse through small individual boutiques, head to brand name stores, or buy from the simple one-man trader on the weekly market. We know where to go for the bargains if we are strapped for cash, but likewise, have our favourite shops for overindulging.

Our tour of Bodrum with Gunay was one of the highlights of our trip to Turkey. She was warm, funny, and so knowledgable! She was able to customize to exactly what we wanted and showed us the most special places. The day was perfect. We felt like we made a special friend and when we return to Turkey, we’ll be requesting Gunay again!

Gunay is a wonderful guide who has a warm, genuine personality and a relaxed, friendly style. She is extremely knowledgeable about all the things we wanted to know about Bodrum but spending a few hours with her was like being toured around by an old friend. We had a wonderful lunch with her at a place she knows, which was a real bonus. We highly recommend spending some time with her.

Gunay was an awesome tour guide. Her knowledge of the area is 2nd to none. She put together a great itinerary for our day in Bodrum but always asked us if there was something we wanted to add or change. We highly recommend Gunay as a guide for your day in Bodrum.

Wonderful, amazing, great personality, our tour guide Gunay was amazing! She delivered a very enjoyable tour of Bodram and the surrounding area. She was flexible and extremely personable while showing us around. The wind mill views, coastal views, historic areas with the history explained very well. The shopping around the bazaar was great with her guidance on which shops to visit. She also took us into a local village to see an olive press operation and rug weaving explanation/demonstration. It was amazing. If you visit Bodram, highly recommend you tour with Gunay, it will be a wonderful experience! She is absolutely amazing!
