7.Istanbul to Gallipoli, Canakkale and Troy. 2 Day Tour with Hotel

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 144 reviews · 2 days (approx.) · from $387

This two-day tour takes you from Istanbul to Gallipoli’s ANZAC sites, then across to Troy and its nine archaeological layers. Expect early starts, long road transfers, a one-night stay in Çanakkale, lunch, breakfast, and guided visits led by local experts such as Charlie and Hassan. Troy Museum entry is not included in this version.

“The guide at Gallipoli was great, knowledgeable and giving a Turkish perspective on the events. Troy was also a fascinating site visit, and a good add-on to Gallipoli. The less positive issues on the tour was some unclear communication, and bus drivers reading/texting while driving (rather fast). Being given "free time" until 1pm in Canakkale on second day was a surprise, and a couple of us took a half hour bus to Troy, before the guided tour of the site, so we could see the new Museum, as it's not included in the tour.”

Expect about 15 hours on the road, with pickup from central European-side hotels.

“A lot of traveling but it was fun. The driver in the morning got angry at me for not walking over to the bus yet he never called my name and there were a lot of people standing around waiting so how was I to know that was my bus? Then when he did he called the wrong name and I just made an educated guess he meant me. But the Tour Guides for the actual Troy tour were amazing! It would mean almost nothing to go there without them as they have so much knowledge and stories that you would miss out on! The site was a lot smaller…”

“Unorganised! When I left my hotel, till I arrived at Eceabat ferry pier, no one told me what was I going to. The driver from the hotel just dropped me at the bus terminal in Istanbul and gave me the coach seat number and he was gone away; once the coach left the bus terminal, a bus attendant asked me for a bus ticket to Çanakkale. I told him I booked a day trip to Troy. He said this coach only stop at Eceabat, and they wouldn't take me back to Istanbul nor provide any tour guide for me because the coach was kinda public bus only! I was shocked,…”

Istanbul: Troy Guided Bus Tour with Ferry Tickets & Lunch

12.Troy Guided Bus Tour with Ferry Tickets & Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 119 reviews · 16 hours · from $148

Leave central Istanbul before dawn for Troy with an English-speaking guide such as Levant, Ibrahim, Sandy, or Duygu. The long but scenic route includes lunch in Eceabat, two Dardanelles ferry rides, a replica Trojan Horse, ancient walls, the Odeon, Temple of Athena, and active excavations. Troy admission costs an extra €27.

“Troy marvellous, guide excellent, journey not bad, considering Istanbul traffic. Would have been good to have been told lunch was at 11:00 when we stopped for optional breakfast at 09:00 as wouldn’t have eaten so much, and the post Troy pit stop was at a place with toilets so unspeakably awful that an alternate should be found for future trips. Also, it would be helpful if it was made clearer that entrance to Troy (€27pp) is not included in the excursion price - better still, just charge an all inclusive price. But those are minor gripes compared to a brilliant experience.”
