Culture, taste and sea
I am a licensed tour guide, based in Izmir.
I accompany Italian travelers who want to discover the Aegean in an authentic way, with tailor-made private tours, away from the mass tourism.
Each experience is built with you, respecting your interests, your time, and your way of traveling.

Private tours in Izmir and surroundings
I offer private and flexible tours, designed for couples, families, and small groups who want to discover the Aegean in a relaxed and authentic way.
Each itinerary is tailor-made based on your interests, available time, and your travel style.
There are no standard programs: history, local life, gastronomy, and the sea combine naturally, following the rhythm of the Aegean.
Some tour examples:
-
Ephesus and the House of the Virgin Mary
-
Izmir between history and local life

Pergamon and the views of the Aegean
What travellers say
"We really liked the way Aslı talks about the region through food.
Nothing forced, everything very authentic.
It's clear he loves what he does."
— Francesca, Rome
"We chose Aslı because we were looking for a local guide, not an organized tour.
It was a very pleasant day, unhurried, with clear explanations and many small details that we would not have noticed on our own.
We felt comfortable from the beginning."
— Marco, Milan
"We wanted to visit Ephesus calmly and without groups.
Aslı respected our time and explained things to us in a simple and interesting way.
It was a relaxing and well-organized tour."
— Luca & Anna, Florence
