Cem 

South America Trip Leader

Cem was born and raised in Turkey, and started guiding when he was 18 years of age. He used to guide mostly rafting and sea kayaking, but once he arrived in Chile, in 2005, he has guided much more hiking. With around 20 years of experience guiding, Cem has seen it all, and can handle any situation out there in the 'field'. 

Cem is relatively new to Active Adventures, and we are so lucky to have him on board. He has been a trip leader for us most recently in South America. When he's not guiding (which isn't much of the time by the sound of his busy life!) Cem can be found listening to music, cooking, and enjoying carpentry work.
