Turkey private tour 2012

Reviewed May 18, 2016

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.

Berk, the friendly, lively and knowledgeable Guide

Reviewed May 17, 2016

Having travelled to many other countries and encountered many guides, Berk is defintely passionate and knowledgeable to say the least. He is extremely energetic and full of life. Making even the most boring of history seem so much easier to grasp.

Whether you want to stick to the tourist spots or travel off the beaten path, Berk can help you plan your itinerary as per your requirement.

Friendly, young and dynamic yet very patient as seen in the pictures where he waits patiently at the Pigeon valley while the tourists take in the beautiful scenary or whether it is guiding the tourists in difficult spots.

We surely had a memorable trip thanks to his liveliness. 

I will definitely recommend Berk to anyone planning to visit Turkey.

my winter in turkey

Reviewed May 2, 2016

my family and i spent winter in turkey last year with a group of old family friends and were fortunate enough to have berk as our guide. I have been on many other travels and I must say, of all the guides I encountered on my trips, berk is the most lively, energetic and passionate about his work.  

he is one of the most interesting and friendliest guides I have met so far and his commentaries on the places we went to made boring history fun!

all in he made our turkey trip most memorable and I thank him for that. I will definitely recommend  berk to any other friends who plan to go to Turkey!
