Experience Overview
Travel to Gallipoli – the site of one of the most significant military battles of modern times.
Travel to Gallipoli – the site of one of the most significant military battles of modern times. Be guided through Anzac Cove to the battlefields, the Nek and Lone Pine and share the stories of heroism and camaraderie that unfolded among the tragedies of this defining moment in Australian and New Zealand history. The struggles of Gallipoli marked the birth of a national consciousness, and this journey provides a great opportunity to pay respect to those who lost their lives and to reflect on what they fought for.

- Go on a quintessential Antipodean pilgrimage to reflect and pay your respects to those in WW1.
- Take a fully guided tour of the Battle Fields of the Gallipoli Peninsula. Visit ANZAC Cove with a local guide and see the ANZAC Commemorative Site.

The Gallipoli experience is well worthwhile, informative and quite moving whether one had a relative in WW1 or not. Take the extra day option to Troy as that adds another aspect of the history in Turkey.

Visiting Gallipoli was an incredible experience. The guides were very knowledgeable. However it felt rushed and I wish there had been an option to do two half days at Gallipoli rather than the second day at Troy. I'd recommend booking directly with the local provider.

I opted for both tours, which were very informative. Experiemce was let down by Pre and post accommodation being extremely noisy and poor organisation with transfers. Aside from the issues I thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Good tour that allows you to see Gallipoli in a short space of time. We had read reviews and decided to stay overnight before driving back to Istanbul the next day. However the accomodation in Cannakkale was poor and the food in the town not great. We requested vegan meals for each of the provided meals - lunch was great but breakfast at the hotel (Anzac Hotel) was awful. Wonderful guide Burak and driver Josh made the trip for us. Burak was hilarious and full of knowledge!
