Please imagine for a second: There is a county in the World which hosted more then forty civilations. People were fed by its fields. Took bath in the natural spring waters. Fell in love sometimes in a dangereous way and built splendid buldings for theirs deities. Do not force yourself for imagination, you do not see any dreams when close your eyes. Actually while listening to me, glorious ancient city of Ephesus will come alive before your eyes. If you would like to visit Ephesus and its around where you feel different things at every spots, you have a chance to meet with me as your specialist tour guide and your knowledgable local person who would like to be a your friend more then a guide in Turkey. As I am Tour Guide and Agent, I will give informations on many subjects such as Turkish Culture, History, Islamism in Turkey, Christian and Jewish Heritage, Greek and Roman mythologi, archaeologi etc. in line with the wishes of our valued guests.

The only difference is time required. Ephesus is more or less 50-60 minutes away from Izmir and 20-30 minutes from Kusadasi. Please let me mention myself: I was born in Istanbul in 1986. I got married in 2011. My wife "Aysun" is also a professional tour guide like me. We studied together at the university. She was my classmate. We have 2 sons. Atlas was born in 2013 :) Aras was born in 2016. He was the our Happy New Year's Gift :). Our home is in Kusadasi and we are living in this resort and port town, located very close to Ephesus. I graduated Travel Agency Management and Tourist Guiding at Adnan Menderes University in Kusadası in 2009. I have been working in tourism since 2004. I have learned this business at university and the agencies, When I studied I also worked in several agencies too. And now I have been learning that business in my experiences. As a passionate and enthusiastic person, I do not repeat myself, I am always renewing and refreshing my knowledge. Because my aim is to be a selected agent and valuable tour guide. Therefore, I create the differences in my business. You will not realize how the time passes while I am sharing my informations and experiences in an unforgettable day.
