Welcome to Istanbul! I’m Seyhan, and I can’t wait to show you the city through a local’s eyes. I am a professional tour guide, licensed by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Turkey after graduating from Istanbul Arel University’s Department of Tourist Guiding in 2016. One of my greatest passions is meeting people from around the world and introducing them to both the famous and hidden corners of the city where I was born and raised. I speak English, Turkish, Kurdish, and basic Spanish. However, I am officially licensed to guide only in English and Turkish. Due to legal regulations in Turkey, I am not authorized to conduct tours in Kurdish or Spanish at this time. I would be delighted to show you the best of my country. I offer both standard tours and fully customizable experiences tailored to your interests.
