Overview
Ancient myth and modern remembrance meet on this guided group experience from Canakkale, where you are collected from your hotel or accommodation and led into two of Turkey’s most powerful landscapes. At Troy, your guide brings Homer’s legendary world into focus as the group stands before the Trojan Horse replica, traces 3,700-year-old city walls, and explores excavated layers that reveal centuries of lost civilizations. The journey continues across the Dardanelles by ferry, shifting from epic legend to the quiet gravity of the Gallipoli Peninsula. After time to relax over an included restaurant lunch in Eceabat, the story deepens at ANZAC Cove, Brighton Beach, Johnston’s Jolly, The Nek, and the moving memorials of Lone Pine and Chunuk Bair. With your guide leading the group throughout, this tour offers more than a checklist of historic sites—it is a thoughtful passage through sacrifice, memory, and myth, ending back in the Canakkale hotel area with a deeper connection to the stories that shaped this corner of Turkey.
