Troy (Truva)
Without a doubt Troy is the most famous city of the ancient world, capital of a land of myths and legends, of heroes and Gods, and a land that this tour can take you to during the tour your guide will explain the mythology surrounding Troy, as well as the history and discoveries of the archaeological excavations from its discovery by Heinrich Schliemann in the 1870s to the present day. Nine cities have been discovered built one on top of the other dating back to before 3500 BC, with the city made famous by Homer in his book the Iliad describing the ten year war being just one of the layered settlements. Not only will you see the still impressive defensive walls of the ancient city and learn the story of the Trojan War, but you will also be able to walk past the ruins of everyday houses dating back more than 3000 years, and walk the same paths as the people of the city did three millennia ago.

This tour of Gallipoli and Troy was a highlight of our visit to Türkiye and our guide Burak was a master of his craft. His 10+ years of guiding around the area he was born and raised in, combined with his personable, warm and fun-loving approach had us at ease and engaged from the start. For what can at times be an emotional ride for those of us visiting from 'Allied' countries, Burak was thoughtful, respectful and informative in the most incredible way, and it was easy to see why the Türkish troops were so respected, even in those dark and bloody days. It just wouldn't have been the same with any other guide.
