Great tour - From the 1st contact with Ramazan from Crowded House everything went smoothly. Picked up on time in Istanbul and transported to Crowded House's office then to the restaurant for lunch where we met our guide Borak. He was exceptional in his knowledge of both Gallipoli and Troy and with all the Aussie slang he's picked up very entertaining. This was definitely the best way to experience Gallipoli and Troy and Crowded House made the tour so easy from start to finish 👌

Istanbul to Troy and Pergammon - Brilliantly organised customised private tour set up on request by Crowded House, and excellently delivered by Singe, Ibrahim & Mr Sinan. Travel from Istanbul was seamless, the guided visit around Troy was essential for understanding a fascinating and complex site, and around Pergammon helped bring these beautiful ruins to life.

Everything was perfect - Crowded House Tours did a very good job organising this for me. Pick-up was just on time, and the driver was very welcoming and entertaining. He also got us everywhere safely. The Gallipoli Tour was first, and it was amazing. The tour guide (I'm sorry, I do not remember names) was a local from Çanakkale and knew quite a lot about the Gallipoli campaign (more than what us Aussies are taught 😅). He was also very entertaining and was able to lighten the mood when needed. He also knew quite a lot of aussie slang, which got a lot of laughs. He was also very happy to answer any extra questions anyone had and offered to help find any relatives that may have passed in the campaign. After the Gallipoli Tour, I was taken by another guide on a ferry across the Dardanelles towards Çanakkale. I was then shown to my accomodation which was very nice, although due to the location it was quite loud at night (it sits right above the bars) so if you're a light sleeper maybe let them know. The next day, I was driven to the Troy museum, and again, the driver was very friendly and helpful. I was given plenty of time to visit the museum before I needed to be picked up by the rest of the group to go to the archaeological site. Again, the tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful and entertaining, too. After the tour, we were taken back to Çanakkale to take the ferry back across the Dardanelles and were allocated into buses to head back to Istanbul. Overall , I had a great experience and would definitely book with Crowded House Tours again. The only thing I might add as a bit of info for anyone doing these tours on a tight schedule, the drive back to Istanbul was delayed by about 1-1.5 hours due to heavy peak hour traffic.

Consigliatissimo! - Omer, from the Istanbul agency, organized a tour just for us, which included Ephesus and Troy in 2 days. Followed very well. Everything is perfect. No detail was overlooked. Grazie mille! Enrica and Fabrizio

Great tour, a must see! - My husband, daughter, and I went on this two-day tour. We had a great time, and our tour guides were very well-informed. The visit to Troy was very surprising, I am glad we added the second day. We liked Canankkale a lot, had some free time to ourselves, and liked the cafes and restaurants by the seashore. Thank you for such a well organized and informative tour. We highly recommend this tour.
