Was an honour to see the ANZAC Battlefields at Gallipoli. My guide, Hasan, was really knowledgable and interesting, helped me learn a lot. Hasan was also funny and a really good story teller, so he made a good day great and very memorable.
It is a long day with a long drive from Istanbul, but if you are like me and really want to see where our ANZAC bravely stood, then its worth it.

Great tour. The group size was about 15 in a nice mini bus which was really good.
Pick up and drop off from my hotel was very useful in such a large city.
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He also gave great insight from the Turkish perspective as well as the Anzac which was very interesting.

The actual Gallipoli experience was OK The young guy that was our guide was too glib for our taste about a very poignant pilgrimage family members made to visit the battle sites of Gallipoli. The main problem we had was the transportation on the way back to Istanbul when we were squished in the back for five hours and the level of service regarding food etc and the extreme squash were well below our expectations. Our complaints to the Crowded House company were dismissed rudely we felt and although the driver was very professional we felt that the owners of the business were not open to any criticism or suggestions for improvements

perfect just what I wanted, saw everything, good commentary, the stops were the right length of time but we were able to stay longer if we wished. I will recommend for any NZ or AUS

The tour was fantastic our tour guide was very knowledgeable and would highly recommended the operator except I’m so disappointed I paid over twice the price going through Viator than I would have buying a ticket from the hotel the operator and everyone else on the tour paid it was a rip off!

Small group (10). Picked up from hostel at time advised. Stop for breakfast (own expense) then lunch (provided - tasty soup, maze & fresh fruit). Guide (Bulant) was knowledgeable, informative and hospitable. Long day - 6am till 10pm - but we’ll worth the effort to learn more about both Aust and Turkish links to this historic battlefield. Our timing seemed to be good (Tuesday second week of Nov) - no crowds, just our group at most of the stops, the weather was fine and warm.

What a great experience. Highlighted by the amazing depth of knowledge of our guide Baurok. He truly brings the stories to life with everything from the overarching strategy of the campaign down to tiny details about food and water etc.
Very highly recommended.

Well, what can I say. My sister and I were thrilled to have Burak as our guide. His passion for his work left us in no doubt that he thrives on the history of Anzac and his country. We learned so much more about the landing and the disorganisation of the whole lead up to the landing. We both reccommend this tour as a must do. I must add that our drive back was like a ride through hell. Too fast and too much traffic. But we did arrive home in one piece thankfully.
