We really enjoyed this trip and got out of it what we were hoping for. The company had everything very well organised and we felt like we were in good hands the whole time. Our guides for both Gallipoli and Troy were both very knowledgeable and friendly. Transportation was comfortable. The accomodation and breakfast were simple but in a good location for exploring Cannakale the following morning. Overall a great trip. If coming in winter, rug up warm as it can get very cold on the tours.

The tour company and all staff were organized, friendly, competent and informative. It made for an interesting and relaxed holiday within a holiday. Anzac and the Gallipoli area were surreal fir a kiwi to go to. Learning the history better and strategic importance of the area was excellent

I had an absolutely lovely time! There was a little bit of a mix up- I thought the Museum of Troy was included, but it turns out GetYourGuide included the description of their (inactive) experience that includes the museum on this tour that actually does not include the museum. However, they honored the mistaken description and had someone take me to the museum and paid for my entry. It was awesome! Also, the ANZAC tour and the tour of the archaeological remains of Troy was incredible!! Way more to see of the archaeological remains than I expected. The town we stayed in overnight was sooo cute. The hotel was called Kale 17 and was in the center of the downtown area. The hotel was brand new and very nice. The whole tour was vegetarian friendly. Everything was great, I had a lovely time and would do it again.
