Troy Tours and Tickets

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.

Long drive (but our driver Murat was so good) but good views, car ferry ride, excellent tour of the Troy ruins with great historical context from our guide Omer, and good museum right next to the site. Excellent conversations and short naps.

We absolutely loved our entire tour. Cindy was an amazing guide, not only did she have a great command of English, she had a great sense of humour and explained everything with such a beautiful passion . She truly made our tour unforgettable . We loved both Tours and really enjoyed our stay in Cannakale along with ferry ride.all so very well organized , great staff and awesome drivers. Thank-you for showing us the beauty and richness of Turkeye

Greatest tour I ever been on. Would go back. In depth tour of what happened. More casualties at Gallipoli than at Normandy

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.

It was great experience in Çanakkale, where the ancient legendary city Troy ! The guide is knowledgeable, the driver took a long journey to service us to and from Istanbul

We had an incredible 2-day experience, starting with a 6:30 AM pickup from Istanbul. We traveled on a minibus (17 passengers in a 20-seater), with a 45-minute stop for coffee at a gas station about 2.5 hours into the journey. After another 2.5 hours, we arrived at our starting point, checked in, and had lunch before heading to Gallipoli around 12:30 PM. While not far distance-wise, the Gallipoli tour lasted 3 hours, and offered a look at the many battlefields and cemeteries. It was a moving, especially for the Australians in our group. The highlight was definitely our guide, Chuck. He possessed incredible historical knowledge, balancing detailed history with independent time. He read the group well and added warm-hearted insights throughout. We arrived back at the check-in point around 5 PM and took the ferry over to Asia, where we had from 5:30 PM until 12:30 PM the next day to explore on our own. Our hotel, the Artur, was better than expected and in a perfect location. The only minor improvement would be the breakfast, which was somewhat lackluster (though perhaps just cultural). At 12:30 PM on the second day, we met our next guide for the tour of Troy. I loved his storytelling, like Chuck, he found the right balance and provided fascinating theories. I can best describe exploring Troy as being like visiting Pompeii and learning history through the excavations. This tour felt shorter but was still well worth it. We left around 3:30 PM to catch the ferry back, boarded the bus to Istanbul, took a 30-minute break, and returned to our hotel around 8:30 PM. Overall, this was an excellent "off the beaten path" excursion. While you could do it on your own, the tour company handled every detail.

Good communication, well organized. People spoke good english and we could understand them easily. Nice comfortable bus. Offered to help us find a grave if we knew anyone buried there. We stayed in a nice Canakkale hotel in the centre of town which gave us breakfast.
