I’m Emre, and I’ve been in the luxury tourism industry since 1996, dedicated to creating unforgettable travel experiences. In 2014, I founded Turkey Travel Journal as a trusted guide for travelers looking to explore Turkey beyond the typical tourist routes.
My goal is to showcase not just the famous landmarks but also the hidden gems, local flavors, and authentic experiences that make Istanbul and Turkey truly special.
