The guide was very knowledgeable about the sites and the history and provided great insights that would be very difficult to discern from just touring the areas and reading the plaques. Very well organized and efficient.

In ancient Troy it was incredible to see thousands of years of history all in one spot. Gallipoli tour was great and walking through the original Australian and Turkish trenches was incredible. The guide is very good and very knowledgeable about Troy and the Gallipoli battle. I also liked the transfer back to Istanbul.

I had such an eye opening educational experience on the Troy & Gallipoli tour. It ended up being a solo tour because no other visitors were there at the time. I was able to get all of my questions answered by Apo, who is such a knowledgeable and patient Guide. He provided anecdotes about Greek mythology and WWI history to add context to the exhibits. I definitely recommend this combo tour with this particular company and Apo as a Guide for history buffs and folks fascinated by mythology!
