2 Days Gallipoli Troy Tour

The 2 day Gallipoli and Troy Tour is an in-depth tour of the Gallipoli and Troy.  Gallipoli is a peninsula bordered by the Aegean Sea and the Dardanelles, which is the Hellespont of the ancient world.  It was the scene of one of the bloodiest battles of World War I.  500,000  Allied and Turkish soldiers died on the battlefield, from disease or drowning.  There are three museums and several cemeteries and monuments, all of which are included in the tour.

Troy was one of the most important cities in the ancient world and site of the Trojan War between the Achaeans and the Trojans.  Multiple excavations have yielded insight into history from 4,000BC to 300AD.  Our Tour includes 3700-year-old city walls, houses from Troy I ((3000BC-2500BC), the remains of Troy 1 through Troy IX, current excavation sites and much more.

You may have a chance to combine the Gallipoli Troy Tour with another tour. If you want to see another place nearby while you are going to Gallipoli, we recommend you to see Ephesus.

In season (April to October), you may continue on to Ephesus for the night and a day tour of Ephesus the next day rather than returning to Istanbul. You may kindly check our Highlight of West Turkey tour for more information on the subject.

This is an in-depth tour of the Gallipoli peninsula, the site of a major World War battle and of Troy, a much excavated site which has yielded pieces of history from 4,000BC to about 300AD.
