Taha Ozyavuz

I am the owner of ParisianTour, a small group and private tour company. I met Mr. Taha Ozyavuz in Sanliurfa, Turkey and he was our guide for two days exploring the bounty of cultural, archeological, as well as cuisine focused opportunities that this area has to offer. Mr. Ozyavuz is very knowledgable and has the rare ability to be sensitive to the interests of the group. He speaks very good English as well as the languages of this region. We were given the opportunity to experience local places and enjoyed watching people playing board games, drinking tea, and enjoying the outdoors in a traditional square few outsiders visit. On tours with limited time, it is important that the tour starts and finishes when scheduled. Mr.Ozyavuz was waiting for us at the airport, brought us to our hotel after a stop for lunch at a family run restaurant. He came each day early and was available upon our return for advise for our free time. As a group coordinator, I especially appreciated the cooperative collaboration we experienced. Mr. Ozyavuz discussed his itinerary with me and was willing to adjust to our requests. However, the plan was so well organized and the choices perfectly suited for our group, that we changed nothing. To be with Mr.Taha Ozyavuz, is to have a knowledgable friend. It is with appreciation that I take the opportunity to introduce others to this accomplished guide. Ms. Elin Babcock Owner ParisianTour.
