About The Founder
Hi! I’m Sajjad Ezati, and I’ve been passionate about the world of tourism since 2012. My journey in this field began with a deep curiosity about cultures, people, and the natural beauty that connects us all. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Tourism Management and a master’s degree in International Tourism Development from Deggendorf Institute of Technology in Germany. I’ve also completed specialized training in tour guiding and travel agency management.
After mastering English, I took on the challenge of learning German to deepen my integration into life and work in Europe. Today, I’m based in Germany and continue to channel my passion into experience-based travel services that foster real connections and cultural exchange.
What sets me apart is a genuine love for history, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and meaningful encounters. Over the years, I’ve worked across various sectors in the travel and leisure industry, always striving to expand my knowledge and refine my skills. One traveler once told me:
“Sajjad demonstrated himself to be modest, professional, and extremely well-organized.”
That’s a compliment I carry with pride.
Beyond my professional life, I’m a dedicated Setar player—a classical Iranian musical instrument—and an avid mountaineer with over 15 years of climbing experience. Whether guiding a hidden corner of the Alps or sharing a story from Persian culture, I believe in travel that transforms and connects.
Why I Founded Hidden Corners
After years of guiding tours and exploring countless destinations, I realized that the most powerful travel experiences come not from checking off famous landmarks, but from quiet moments in lesser-known places, where nature speaks louder, and local culture feels more intimate. I founded Hidden Corners to share these authentic corners of the world with like-minded travelers.
My goal is to go beyond traditional tourism, offering immersive journeys that reconnect people with nature, heritage, and the human stories often overlooked. Each itinerary is carefully crafted to inspire curiosity, cultural understanding, and deep, lasting memories.
