Burak Plakay

Licensed Istanbul Guide | Conversational Historian | Intuitive Storyteller

Born and raised in Istanbul with proud Albanian roots, Burak brings the city’s heartbeat to life—not through rehearsed scripts, but through lived experience, neighborhood tales, and sharp improvisation. He blends a scholar’s curiosity with a comedian’s timing, making history feel relatable and irrepressibly alive. Fluent, intuitive, and endlessly empathetic, he adjusts to each group’s energy—whether you’re a bustling family or a quiet couple, he senses your pace.

Burak doesn’t just guide—he listens, adapts, and stays with you for as long as the journey resonates. His debut blog post on Gordion ventures beyond Istanbul to explore one of Türkiye’s oldest archaeological marvels, weaving together myth, ancient power, and the enduring legacies hidden in the landscape.
