We will meet at 6:30am at the designated
Samyeli 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 96 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: Monday
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 Samyeli Travel
Meeting Point.
Please note: Accommodation is not

for carrying things with you overnight at
