Battlefield of Gallipoli stopping along the way to
pick up refreshments for lunch. You will also have
an opportunity to watch “Gallipoli” the movie so you

war and to help you picture conditions 93 years ago.

Cemetery, Lone Pine, The Nek, and Chunuk Bair War
memorial. Your guide will reveal stories of battle
woes and will bring alive the legend of the Anzac's.

to spend more time exploring without the crowds from
other tours that arrive on the 24th.
After visiting Gallipoli we will travel to the
ancient city of Troy, the famous archeological and
 mythological
site which is home of the “Trojan Horse” and “Helen
of Troy”. We will then travel to our luxurious
accommodation, where an all-you-can-eat buffet
dinner awaits.

Day Three: 24th April -
Relax at Thermal Resort
Today you have the opportunity to see and enjoy the
rural side of Turkey. You don’t need to wake up
early in the morning as we will leave after
breakfast for Tahtakuşlar. Here you can observe the
ideal Turkish village life of nomads as you look
around the only village museum in Turkey (awarded by
Unesco). In this museum there are objects about the
fauna & flora of Turkey and all the handcrafted
nomadic arts are displayed. Turkish people are
 Nomadic
in origin but today most of them have settled on the
top of mountains. There are more than 40,000 nomadic
villages and tribes in Turkey and one of them is the
picturesque village of Çamlibel which is on the
skirts of mythological Olympos Mountain (today’s
Mount Ida). They are waiting for you here to show
you the famous Turkish hospitality and friendship. A
guest is a king in Turkey therefore you will be made
welcome with food and drink while you relax. In the
afternoon we head back to the hotel to enjoy the
rest of the day. Make sure you get plenty of rest
because ANZAC day will be a long busy day. A buffet
dinner will be served so you can fill up before
departing for Gallipoli late afternoon. We arrive at
Anzac Cove to ensure we get a good spot for the dawn
service. Don't forget your sleeping bags, warm
clothes, wet weather gear and torches
 because
Gallipoli is still as dark and cold tonight as it
was 93 years ago when your ancestors landed.

Cove

& Dinner.
