My name is Ertunga and I was born in 1977 in Kusadasi, where I still live. I graduated from the University of Philology, Department of English Language and Litarature. Since I grew up and have lived all my life in a touristic town, guiding has always been my dream. Very early I understood that it would be the most convenient job for my lifestyle, because I like history, archeology, traveling and meeting different people and cultures, but beyond everything I love my country and would like people to see it’s beauty and understand it’s history and culture. In 2001 I became a professional tourist guide, with the license issued by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Since then I have been guiding in all areas in Turkey and meeting tourists from all over the world.

Professional guide take you to see Efes

  Our guide, Maria is one of the most professional local guide I’ve meet. She introduced this big ancient city to us detailing. As she said, most people came to Efes only for library and the big theater, but Efes is more than you think. Recommend you to discover this beautiful city with professional guide.我們的導遊，瑪麗亞，是我見過最專業的導遊之一，他帶我們認識了以佛所的全貌，大部分人來到此地只為了大劇場和圖書館。但這樣很可惜，你可以讓專業的導遊帶著你認識更多，這美麗古老的城市

An awesome Turkish delight

  We just came back from a wonderful time in Turkey! Ertunga was my point of contact when I enquired on the rates and itinerary. He was helpful, efficient and prompt with his replies even before I made any confirmation with him. Ertunga assigned Ozgur as our guide and Omer as our driver. Ozgur was

Exceptional tour and exceptionally organised

  We chose Ertunga because he was extremely efficient in peronalising our 22 day travel plans to not only see Turkey’s historical sights but to visit all of the biblical sights, some of which we had missed on previous trips. We had a reliable and comfortable Mercedes van and our driver had extensive knowledge of

Oh, how I loved my trip to Turkey!

I have always wanted to visit Turkey, and feel so blessed that a friend of a friend gave me Ertunga’s name. I am not a large-group-tour-bus person, so was thrilled to find someone who could be my private guide for an affordable price. Ertunga was great to work with from the beginning. He responded to

Memorable first time visit

Both myself and 4 friends travelled to Turkey for the first time. We were not sure of many things eg culture, cost, itinerary, food to name a few. All of those concerns melted away when we met Erti. From the very first meet he assured us that he got things covered. He is very genuine,
