Hi, My name is Özgür. I have been working as a tour guide in Turkey since 2012.
I am an active, licensed professional tour guide who works as a freelancer. As a passionate tour guide, I tried to give a sip from past to present with personal touches to every single tour I conducted before. It is always a great pleasure to create unforgettable memories with my guests.
I studied English, archeology, mythology, religions, guidance, history, tourism . . etc., at the Tourism Guidance Department of Suleyman Demirel University. After graduation, I sat the English exam, which is compulsory to pass to receive a guiding license from the Ministry of Tourism. Moreover, I traveled 36 days around Turkey with professional guides and learned all the cities’ history, including different traditions.
Now, I am looking forward to welcoming my dear guests here in Istanbul, Turkey.
This was the lifetime experience that I booked Ozgur over privateistanbulguide.com also our tour was covering Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. I travel with my partner and we both really enjoy an amazing explanation of Ozgur.
