Tour Guide Zerrin

Hi everyone;

If you ask me who the Tour Guide Zerrin is;

I don’t know how to express myself to you. I am Licensed Tour Guide and have been working as a tour guide since 1993. Nearly 32 years over. Guidance is main part of my life and if it is asked me; -if l come back life again, which job I choose– my answer will be guidance again for sure. Have you ever felt the memories of people in old cities or even in old building? If Yes, you can understand me.

In my last 32 years, have been same places, cities many times. I don’t remember how many times I visited Ephesus or Cappadocia. But whenever I start tour with new guests, I always feel so excited to show and explain. Therefore,

“I pride myself on my abilities to add a personal touch to each tour I handle. It is very important for me that my guests return home with an unforgettable experience to remember…”

I live in Istanbul. I have been in tourism business for long years. This experience gives a self confidence to me to answer questions about cities, highlights in Turkey. While

customizing tours, I founded a Travel Agency not to be related to any touristic commercial company. My first aim is giving best choices, comforts and good information as a first hand to my guests.

Each corner of my country from west to east is my favourite place such as Cappadocia, Ephesus,

Mt Ararat, Mt Nemrut, Göbeklitepe where the zero point of time. But Istanbul is my love and my life. Everyone says living in Istanbul is too much noise and traffic. I say that living in Istanbul is a pleasure!

We have to upgrade ourselves with information about excavations, historical sights etc. So reading wasn’t so enough for me and applied Istanbul University in 2023 to learn cuniform and read the oldest stone tablets. Hititology opened the new gates to me and involving this history a lot. In next years, I will be able to read and translate 5000 years old Sumerian, Akadian, Hititte stone tablets.
