Troy Tours and Tickets

Q: What is the history of Troy in Turkey?

Troy, an ancient city in Turkey, is the legendary setting of the Trojan War in Homer’s Iliad. The actual city dates back to 3500 BC and features seven layers of civilizations. Archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann led excavations in the 19th century, destroying many ruins in pursuit of treasures. In 1998, Troy was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Q: How do I get to Troy from Istanbul?

To reach Troy from Istanbul, you can take a bus, car, or join a guided tour that includes transportation. The journey by road is approximately 5–6 hours. Direct buses run from Istanbul’s main bus terminals to Çanakkale several times throughout the day. From the Çanakkale city center, you have to take a taxi or dolmuş (public minibus) to the archaeological site.

Q: What are the opening hours of the Troy archaeological site?

The Troy archaeological site is open 8:30am to 7:30pm from April to October and from 8:30am to 5:30pm from November to March. If you visit during the spring or autumn, try to time your visit with sunset when the colorful sky illuminates the ruins.

Q: What can I see at the archaeological site of Troy?

The Troy archaeological complex offers a chance to explore 4,000 years of history, including the citadel’s defensive walls, visible layers of the city’s nine rebuildings, and bastions. Other BC highlights include the replica of the wooden Trojan Horse, the Temple of Athena, a Roman odeion, and an assembly house.

ShingFoo_L, Apr 2026

Enjoyable Long Trip Away from Istanbul, Immersing in History and Tales

I highly recommend choosing the 2-night option—it’s quite a long journey to and from Istanbul, but definitely worth it. Çanakkale is a lovely place to stay overnight. High praise to the tour guides on both days, especially Charlie—it was such an enjoyable experience listening to the tales of Troy. He was an intriguing storyteller: fun, engaging, and, most importantly, fluent in English, making history and legends easy to understand.

I traveled with my family, but I was under a different booking as I was a solo traveler. Well organize, friendly guides.. The one night accommodation was a nice hotel in the central of town. They gave us a lot of time at the Troy Museum, more than we needed. Nice, comfortable, clean mini bus.

Dardanelles: from 1 straight to the other .

It seemed a bit hectic all the changes of vehicles , but it was actually very well planned, and they were very responsible, carefully checking who went where. Personally I liked a lot crossing the Dardanelles. Lunch was good; better yet with close feline companionship ( this is Türkiye!). At Troy/ Truva/Troia ( you choose ) the guide was very thorough. A little tiresome to stand in the sun, listening, but young people probably didn't care. Beautiful views of Marmara sea & Dardanelles.
