Tour of Gallipoli
We will meet at 6:30am at the
designated Sammys Travel meeting
point in the Sultanahmet area
(close to where most hotels and
hostels are located). We
will board the coach and head
towards Gallipoli stopping to
pick up supplies for lunch and
the overnight stay at Gallipoli.
You will also have an
opportunity to watch a movie
about Gallipoli so you get a
feel for the type of people who
fought in this war and to help
you picture conditions 95 years
ago.
Once we arrive in Gallipoli we
will have a fully guided tour,
you will visit the Kabatepe
War Museum, Anzac Cove, Hell
Spit Cemetery, Lone Pine, The
Nek and the Chunuk Bair War
memorial. You will then
head to Anzac Cove to get a good
spot for the Dawn Service which
starts early the following
morning. Overnight: Anzac Cove
Day
Two: Sunday 25th April - ANZAC
Day (Gallipoli to Istanbul)
At first light you will
experience the Dawn Service, a
truly moving experience for
everyone. You will hear
tributes and tales of your
fellow countrymen and join the
many thousands who make the
pilgrimage to Gallipoli to
remember the fallen. After
the Dawn Service you will make
your way to the various sites
for the different
commemorations. First is
the Australian Service at Lone
Pine and then the New
Zealand service at Chunuk Bair.
At the conclusion of the NZ
service you will be collected
from either Lone Pine or Chunuk
Bair by your guide and coach and
will depart to Eceabat where
there will be time for a short
break and those who wish to
leave the tour here can do so
and head by ferry to Canakkale
on the main land to continue
their travels around Turkey.
The coach will then depart for
Istanbul arriving in the evening
and will drop you off at the
Sammys Travel Meeting Point.
