    Excellent day, every aspect of the day was very good. We were driven to the sight after a breakfast stop and lunch which was included. We had a very well researched guide who was very familiar with Australia and our history. It was interesting to hear from the Turkish perspective as well. Our guide obviously has a passion for the history of the battle and the area and explained what happened in many different areas and showed original photos of many places we visited. Would highly recommend.

    Informative and fun day out to see many of the sights and attractions of Istanbul. We especially enjoyed seeing the Asian side of the city as we were staying in the old city for our stay,

    The entire trip to Bursa was amazing. The snow and the ride up the mountain by cable car was fantastic. A memorable and not to be missed experience.

    This trip was amazing and well organised. TJ was a wonderful guide and had a wealth of knowledge to share with the group.
    The long day was made easy with a very comfortable mini bus, breakfast and lunch included.
    10/10 would recommend this tour.

    The food was rich with Turkish flavors, and the performers made the evening lively. We saw Istanbul from the water, and the view was just breathtaking, especially with the city lights at night.

    A superb trip. Informative, well planned, and professional from start to finish. The 6.30am collection and 4 hour drive each way was well worth it to experience the site of the city of Troy. The guide was excellent, giving detail and depth to our understanding. I would highly recommend this trip. 5*.

    This was a full day experience with multi stops leading up to the Mountain stop which was stunning. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The driver was on time for pickup and stops were strictly timetabled. Pack yourselves a lunch and snacks for the scenic long drive. The mountain stop and cable car was the highlight of the trip and well worth it.

    Such an amazing tour of gallipoli. We were very well looked after on the trip there and back. Picked up from our hotel and dropped back off at the end of the day. The tour of anzac cove and lone pine aswell as other significant sites was incredible. Our tour guide Burak was extremely friendly and hugely knowledgeable of the war sites and stories behind the battles that took place. The whole experience was extremely well organized thanks to crowded house tours for looking after us for the day.

    It was great to go to the top of Uludağ and enjoy nature. It was also very enjoyable to visit the historical places of Bursa and eat delicious food. Our guide was very friendly and helped us a lot throughout the tour.
