We travelled to Turkey with another couple (very good friends) in mid 2012. Berk was appointed our private guide and, together with our driver,we spent almost three weeks touring around major cities, historical sites, small villages and the general countryside. Berk proved to be an oustanding guide who was very passionate about his work and his country; he was very quick in understanding the type of tour we wanted, and the nature of things we were interested in. While we had a pre-planned itinerary, Berk's knowledge and resourcefulness made our tour even more enjoyable and memorable than we expected (it was our second trip to Turkey; our friends' first). When we again travel to Turkey, we will certainly seek out Berk and employ him as our guide, if he is available.
