I had Ibrahim as my guide as well for Pergamon and it went great with him as a great story-teller so when the agency told me I will have a knowledgeable guide, he was right. Not only really knowledgeable, Ibrahim made sure the information is apt and appropriate to the guest with lots of stories in between, both fiction and historical. He knows his craft so much that the information is shared to me even on the road since the destinations are quite a distance from each other.
Driving to Pamukkale was 2.5 hours one way so the trip didn't feel long because of the stories, jokes, music, and just fun driving and singing on the road.
His stories and information on Pamukkale and Hierapolis helped the place come alive that you really want to travel back in time to see how those things in the past happened. Ibrahim is able to answer questions and he is all the more encouraging me to ask more questions and he'd be ready to share an answer.

We had a great time with Umut at Pammakule. The trip was very well organized, Umut was very friendly and knowledgeable, and we had plenty of time to explore the area on our own as well. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone else!
