2 days from Istanbul to Gallipoli and Troy. Guided ANZAC Cove and Lone Pine memorials, plus Troy ruins, hotel, and lunch.
“Gallipoli was informative and deeply moving, largely thanks to our brilliant guide Hassan and terrific driver (who’s name I unfortunately missed-sorry!) i realised how little I actually knew about the Dardanelles campaign and battlefield stories beyond the important but simplified lessons learnt in school. Standing above the beaches and ridgelines makes it so much clearer. Troy was also enjoyable but try to include s visit to the museum first as it puts the ruins in context. Hotel Artur was very comfortable - great beds, brilliant sunset view from our balcony. My only criticism would be the long trip back to Istanbul in a jampacked minibus, whch was incredibly uncomfortable.”
A fast 5-day Aegean route with Gallipoli, Troy, Ephesus, Pamukkale, plus a flight back to Istanbul, in English.
“Really enjoyed our tour! Plus it was a great value. Ahmet, our tour guide, was great : The places we saw were fantastic! We took someone's advice from a previous review about flying back to Istanbul instead of taking the bus back because it was mostly a travel day, like 9-10 hours, and we're glad we did. Got a cheap flight and got another full day in Istanbul. Definitely recommend this tour. Rebecca R,”
Small-group Gallipoli and ANZAC battlefields from Istanbul with hotel pickup and lunch, visiting ANZAC Cove and Lone Pine.
“Was an honour to see the ANZAC Battlefields at Gallipoli. My guide, Hasan, was really knowledgable and interesting, helped me learn a lot. Hasan was also funny and a really good story teller, so he made a good day great and very memorable. It is a long day with a long drive from Istanbul, but if you are like me and really want to see where our ANZAC bravely stood, then its worth it.”

“Absolute must do with Crowded House Tours. Burek was an amazing tour guide with so much knowledge to share and with documented insights not necessarily portrayed in mainstream media or school history lessons. My great grandfather was buried at Shell Green cemetery and the passion and compassion shown by both Burek, Josh (our driver) and my fellow travellers was amazing. You will walk away from this tour enlightened and deeply moved. So thankful for this day and extremely appreciative of the Turkish people in spite of their own fallen and the horrors of war they faced too. Informative, respectful, genuine.”
2 days of WWI Gallipoli, Troy, and Pergamon from Istanbul with overnight hotel, an English guide, and tickets included.
“Start to finish, Crowded House Tours did a wonderful job of handling all of the logistics. Our guide, Çağrı, made the experience a memorable one with his storytelling and attention to detail. Pergamon and the visit to the Desen carpet weavers collective were my favorite parts of the tour. The vehicles were clean and well maintained and the drivers were diligent. Even though our tour was listed as ending in Kuşadası, the tour company was kind enough to drop us off at our hotel in İzmir. We don't usually do organized tours, but we had no regrets booking this one!”
