Our Services
Private tour arrangements, however demanding or complex.
Galibarda is a family-run destination management company, now in its second generation. We arrange the fleet, the guides, the hotels, the flights and the occasions around them — so that a programme runs on the ground exactly as it was sold.
Mercedes sedans, VIP Vito vans, Sprinters and long-distance coaches with professional chauffeurs.
English, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin and Indonesian — with specialists on request.
Properties and tables we work with personally, arranged directly for your group.
From a single family in a sedan to full cultural and corporate delegations.

Professional Multilingual Guides & Specialists
Our guiding team works in five languages, with subject specialists available for groups who want more than a recital of dates. We match the guide to the group, not to a rota.
In-House Guiding Languages
The Seven Churches of Revelation, Biblical Anatolia, the journeys of St. Paul and the early Christian sites of the Mediterranean.
Classical Greco-Roman sites, Ottoman imperial architecture and the museums and conservation work behind them.
Aegean olive routes, Anatolian vineyards and the restaurants and markets worth building a day around.
Relaxed guiding for families and private parties, with the pacing and flexibility a tailored programme needs.
