Svetlana Samarina Yigiter
Today, my passion for cycling and travel comes together with my professional skills: planning, coordinating, and designing seamless, memorable journeys — with genuine care for your comfort and attention to every detail and preference."
With a background in producing commercials, TV projects, and large-scale events, I bring nearly 20 years of organizational experience into every detail of our tours.
"I came to Fethiye three years ago to ride a bike — and ended up falling in love with its landscapes, its climate, and eventually with my husband, the founder of Atlas Pedal.
My goal is simple: to help people fall in love with this region the way I did — through unforgettable rides, spectacular landscapes, ancient cultural landmarks, extraordinary local flavors, and the confidence that your adventure will be safe, seamless, and full of joy”.
In the past years, I’ve been creating unique cycling tours, partnering with hotels like Hillside Beach Club, and welcoming cyclists who return again and again for new adventures.
In 2018, I opened Atlas Pedal — a place that quickly grew into much more than a bike shop. It became a hub for riders from Fethiye and all over the world.
“I rode a road bike in Fethiye for the first time in 2001 — and from that moment, cycling became my life, and opening a bike shop became my dream. I’ve explored every route, every climb, every hidden corner of this region, yet I still discover new roads to share.
