Tour/Activity
Istanbul, Turkey
My Rating
This is a superbly organised trip, which includes the 4 hour bus trips there and back, meals, overnight accomodation in a top-class hotel, guided tours of all of the key Gallipoli sites, and the excavations at Troy, and ferry tickes to and from Cannakale. It seemed particularly good value given the quality of the inclusions. The guide, Murat Deniz, displayed great knowledge of the subject material and interpreted it with great wit and charm. A great thing abot this tour is that it is well planned - there are plenty of rest stops on the way to and from Istanbul, and just the right amount of time at each stop do to your own exploring. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Gallipoli in the summer months. Even if you are not interested in Troy, I would still suggest staying overnight and returning the next day, as 8 hous on a bus is too much in one day. The overnight stay is in Cannakale on the asian side of the Dardanelles, and that is a most attractive city with plenty of sights and attractions to justify staying there a day.
