Additional Information

Embark on a serene journey through the scenic Gallipoli Peninsula, a crucial battleground during World War I. Set off on a lengthy drive to the delightful town of Eceabat, where you can refuel with a scrumptious meal at a regional eatery. Post a hearty lunch, embark on an insightful tour around the peninsula with an erudite, English-speaking guide who will keep you engrossed with his tales and interpretive commentary of the various landmarks you’ll explore. Keep in mind that the Gallipoli Peninsula played out as a theatre of war, where numerous soldiers, including many Australians and New Zealanders, fell, leaving a somber ambience saturating the entire landscape. You may even accord your respects to these brave souls at the memorials nestled in Brighton Beach, ANZAC Cove, the Nek Ridge, and Chunuk Bair.

Magnificent - Outstanding! So much history and so much knowledge - our guide burak (I think was his name) was a subject matter expert. It was very thrilling to learn the Turkish side of the story of Gallipoli having known the Aussie side. From the battering waves at Anzac cove to the trenches and war graves. This tour is a must if you want to learn about the history of the Anzacs.
