Throughout my career, I have lived and worked locally in the Mediterranean\r\nregion of Turkey, Cappadocia, and Istanbul. Since 2018, I have been leading scheduled multi-day tours across Turkey, covering some of the country\u2019s most remarkable destinations, including Gallipoli, Ephesus, Pamukkale, Antalya, \u00c7atalh\u00f6y\u00fck,\r\nCappadocia, G\u00f6beklitepe, Mount Nemrut, and many other significant historical and cultural sites. I am also the co-founder of Bien Cappadocia Travel and the creator of the daily G\u00f6beklitepe tours from Istanbul \u2014 a project that has introduced\r\none of the world\u2019s oldest sacred sites to hundreds of international travelers. Since 2024, I have been focusing on private guiding and personalized travel consulting, helping visitors design meaningful and well-structured journeys\r\nthroughout Turkey. In addition to my independent work, I collaborate as a contracted tour guide with internationally recognized travel companies such as Intrepid Travel, Bella Turca Travel, Bien Cappadocia Travel, and Seasong Travel.\r\nIn 2026, I was honored as \u201cTour Guide of the Year\u201d by Intrepid Travel and invited to attend their Global Summit in Melbourne. I am a relaxed and easygoing person, passionate about introducing travelers to the true essence of my country\r\n\u2014 not only its historical milestones, but also its cultural layers, demographic realities, political background, and, most importantly, the human stories that bring history to life. You may request me as your tour guide through the\r\nagencies I collaborate with, or you can book a private guiding service directly with me. I am always happy to assist with travel planning and answer any questions about your visit to Turkey.<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Me My name is Saygu Sezen, and I am a professional licensed tour guide in Turkey with over 16 years of experience in the field.
