We provide Security and Bodyguard Services for Turkey
Intelligent Protection International Limited has been providing Bodyguard services in Turkey for a number of years. As with many countries, Turkey has had problems with terrorism, this has of course intensified due to Turkey bordering Syria and Iraq, although the last major terror attack involving tourists was in 2017, a roadside bomb killed seven people in Kulp district of Diyarbakir province in September 2019.
Turkey benefits from a fabulous tourism industry that sees millions of visitors each year travelling to the country for its beaches and much more besides. Turkey is the historic gateway to Asia from Europe, a country full of history and rich in culture and art of all periods, from the Byzantine Period through to the great Ottoman Empire.

We provided the family with a Japanese/English/Turkish translator who was able to assist us in organising the client's itinerary.

In 2024, Intelligent Protection provided Bodyguard Services in Ankara for a politician and his team attending an Energy Conference and a series of meetings.
Prior to travel, we provided our client and his team with a Travel Risk Report and liaised with them on the planning of their busy itinerary. Our client's trip was decided with short notice, so the planning and logistics were troublesome, but we found workarounds.
We provided a multilingual team of bodyguards and security-trained and vetted drivers with good local knowledge of the city.
Our client has since requested our services for other international conferences across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
