Embark on a moving full-day journey from Istanbul to the Gallipoli Peninsula, one of the most historic battlefields of World War I. This tour offers a chance to stand on sacred ground, reflect on the courage of those who fought, and connect with a powerful chapter in history.

Your day begins with an early morning hotel pick-up in Istanbul, followed by a scenic 4.5-hour drive to Eceabat, where you’ll enjoy lunch at a local restaurant and meet your expert guide. Afterward, you’ll cross to the Gallipoli battlefields to begin your guided exploration.

Walk through Shrapnel Gully Cemetery, Maclagan’s Ridge, and Plugge’s Plateau Cemetery, where you can admire sweeping views of ANZAC Cove, North Beach, and Suvla Bay. Continue to Russell’s Top and Walker’s Ridge Cemetery, both commanding strategic viewpoints.

Explore Russell’s Top Trenches, Turk’s Point, and The Nek Cemetery, a site of immense bravery depicted in the famous Gallipoli film. Discover the daily realities of soldiers at Water Tanks, and visit the front-line positions of Quinn’s Post, Courtney’s Post, and Steele’s Post, perched precariously above Monash Valley.

Learn about communication lines at MacLaurin’s Hill, before visiting Johnston’s Jolly with preserved Allied and Turkish trenches. Pay respects at the Lone Pine Cemetery, then continue along Artillery Road to Shell Green Cemetery—famous for the cricket match played here during the campaign—and end at Clark’s Gully.

With your guide, you’ll gain insight into both ANZAC and Turkish perspectives, and those with family connections can be assisted in locating memorial names or headstones.

At the end of this unforgettable experience, return to Istanbul in the evening with hotel drop-off.

This tour is not only a journey through landscapes but also through memory—honoring the soldiers of all nations who rest here side by side.
