Covid Vaccination Status Vaccine: COV19 MRNA BIONTECH 3 doses I've been working officially as a Tour guide for 14 years. In order to be tour guide in Turkey, you should work really hard, study at the university and you should be succesfull in several exams. When I got my licence, my dream came true. Because I decided to be a tour guide when I was 11 years old. In 14 years, after I started to be quiet experienced tour guide because of my passion. I used to work all around my country but I decided to be a specialist of a certain region and I chose North Aegean part . You can find whatever you look for on the Northwestern part of Turkey. The highlights of the region are Gallipoli battlefields, Troy, Assos and Pergamon. They are all full of with the history, mythology and natural beauty. Because of the strategic importance of the region, there were two important wars between the west and the east, One was 104 years ago, the Gallipoli Campaign and the other one was the Trojan War nearly 3200 years ago, People always interest in both wars as they were mentioned in the history all the time, When you come to visit all these sites, you are going to see that the things that you had already known are missing. If you want to discover and learn more than the written history, you should come soon and follow me.

Troy, dream and reality, compare the real Troy with the story one
Overview of your Canakkale tour
Full with mythology. A comparison of truth and story. The guest will understand whether the Acheans really used a Trojan horse or not. In this tour, Homer is going to be more intelligible. Most of the visitors think that Troy is just a city that was captured by a horse trick. But when we start to compare the site with the mythology, we are going to see that it is more than a city and mythology. Once you start to visit the site with me, you are going to be really curious about the next parts of the story and the city. What happened to the Trojans at the end? Where does the Helen of Troy story come from? Are there any relatives of the Trojans in our present time? Or, maybe you want to walk on the battlefields that Achilles and Hector fought. Maybe you want to see where all these Trojan war heroes buried. I have all the answers to your questions after 16 years of experience. This is not going to be a classical Troy tour. For further details come and visit Troy soon.
