Important Information
Our program is carried out as an overnight departure one day before the tour date.
Guests can join from the directions of Çiğli, Menemen, and Aliağa, which are located on the Izmir departure route.
We meet you, our valued guests, late at night at the specified departure points and begin our journey towards Çanakkale in our comfortable vehicle. After a pleasant overnight journey with breaks along the way, we arrive in Çanakkale in the morning hours.
By ferry, we cross to Eceabat and start the day with a morning breakfast included in the tour fee at our partner restaurant. After breakfast, guided by our guide's explanations, we begin to explore the historical peninsula where the Çanakkale Land Battles, one of the greatest heroic epics written by the Turkish nation for independence, took place.
Our first stop is the Kilitbahir Fortress, built by Sultan Mehmed II after the conquest of Istanbul to ensure the security of the strait. After listening to our guide's explanations about this magnificent structure rising at the narrowest point of the strait, we head to the Seyit Onbaşı Monument, one of the unforgettable heroes of the Çanakkale Victory. While hearing the heroic story of Seyit Onbaşı, who changed the fate of the war by carrying a 276 kg artillery shell on his back, we deeply feel the spirit of those days.
Our next visit point, the Sargı Yeri Cemetery, reveals the harsh conditions of the war as one of the areas where wounded soldiers were treated. Here, through our guide's explanations, we have the opportunity to get close to the superhuman struggle fought behind the front lines.
Continuing our tour, we visit the Çanakkale Martyrs' Memorial, which keeps alive the memory of tens of thousands of heroic Janissaries who fell in Çanakkale. Rising with a commanding position over the unique view of the strait, this monument is one of the most important symbols of our nation's struggle for independence. After the photo break we take here, we remember our martyrs with respect and gratitude.
Then, we move to the Seddülbahir region, one of the most critical fronts of the war, and afterwards, we visit the Ezineli Yahya Çavuş Martyrdom and Monument, one of the symbolic names of the Çanakkale defense. Guided by our guide's explanations, we witness the extraordinary heroism shown by Çavuş Yahya and his comrades-in-arms.
Continuing our tour, we continue to explore the historical battlefields of the Gallipoli Peninsula. First, we reach Ari Burnu, and then we visit Anzac Cove, one of the most important landing sites in world history. Here, we listen to the events experienced from both sides of the war and feel the struggle that changed the course of history on the spot.
Our final visit point is Conkbayırı, one of the most important fronts of the Çanakkale Wars. On these sacred lands where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk revealed his superior military genius and gave the historic order "I do not order you to attack, I order you to die.", we listen to the events that changed the course of the war through our guide's explanations. Guests who wish may also visit the 57th Regiment Cemetery located in the area and pay tribute to the holy memory of our heroic Janissaries.
After this emotional tour where we witnessed the most meaningful pages of our history, we cross back to Çanakkale Center by ferry and begin our return journey to Izmir. After rest breaks along the way, we arrive in Izmir between 22:00 – 23:00 in the evening, bid farewell to our valued guests at the points where we picked them up, and say goodbye with the wish to meet again on another beautiful journey.
