Taha Ozyavuz

We met Taha in Urfa who was referred to us by a local site seeing guide, whom we hired in Istanbul.

Taha was waiting for us at the Urfa Airport (Proper Name + Link), on short notice the evening before our arrival. Taha's vehicle was very comfortable and immaculately clean. He indicated he was willing to drive us to any location within an approximate 200km radius.

During our time in and around Urfa, Taha was sincerely friendly, exceptionally courteous and considerate. Taha entertained all of our questions and requests without hesitation. He was clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the historic places we intended to visit, and other great places he recommended. Some of these included:

Gobekli Tepe

Şanlıurfa Museum

Over all, we found Taha to be Professional, yet Personable. Selflessly considerate, and Passionately committed to showcasing his city and region of deeply ancient culture, no doubt a source of personal pride... a 5/5 rating of resourcefullness is an understatement.

His service rate was very reasonable; something which we increased based on his exceptional provision. We highly recommend Taha that you would consult with him, help plan and assist you navigate and explore the Şanlıurfa Province, Turkey.
