Troy Day Trip

On this day trip to Troy from Istanbul, we'll uncover the secrets of this important ancient city which mixes reality with mythology.

Description

At the time indicated, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Istanbul and head west to the legendary city of Troy. Firstly, we'll travel to Eceabat, on the shore of the Dardanelles, making a stop for a break. Upon arriving in the town, you'll have free time to eat breakfast at a restaurant.

Next, we'll catch a 25-minute ferry to Çanakkale. Here, we'll board the minibus to travel to one of the most famous ancient cities and start our Tour of Troy! In the archaeological zone of Troy, we will explore the ruins discovered in 1871 by Heinrich Schliemann, viewing the city's defensive walls, altars, remains of houses, and a replica of the Trojan Horse.

After this historic journey, we'll return to Çanakkale to take the ferry back to Eceabat. Here, we'll enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Following lunch, we'll start our journey back to Istanbul, arriving 18 hours after initial pickup.
