Who Am I
From Medicine to Adventure: The Story Behind Guide Turco Hi! I’m Mehmet Can Sincar , the founder of Guide Turco and your dedicated local expert in Turkey. My journey to guiding is anything but traditional. After graduating from medical school, I served as a military doctor on Turkey's southern border and later practiced medicine in the northern region of Zonguldak. While medicine was fulfilling, my true calling has always been exploration, high-energy movement, and authentic human connection. I chose to step away from my medical career to follow my passion: showing international travelers the real, unfiltered Turkey. As a licensed mountaineer and an avid explorer, I’ve traversed every corner of this country, from its highest peaks to its deepest historic roots. Being fluent in both English and Spanish allows me to connect deeply and professionally with travelers from all over the globe, serving not just as a guide, but as a trusted local friend.
