Cruise Extensions ~ Gallipoli & Troy

Duration: 2 days & 1 night
Trip Type: Cruise Extensions
Location Turkey

Cruising in the Mediterranean, Aegean or Black Sea presents some wonderful opportunities to see more of Turkey. Either before or after your cruise, consider some of these short extensions to expand your experience in a land rich in history, culture and natural wonders.

Day 1

Depart Istanbul and travel southwest towards Canakkale, located on the southern coast of the Dardanelles Strait. Visit the Gallipoli War Graves of the First World War. Here Turkish, British and Anzac soldiers lie side by side. Cross the strait to Anatolia and spend the afternoon exploring the ancient city of Troy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The multiple layers of ruins indicate that Troy was destroyed and rebuilt many times. The first city on the site was founded in the 3rd millennium BCE. Homer’s Troy was most likely between 1300 and 1190 BCE. See the remains of ancient walls, palaces, houses and the Roman Theatre. Overnight in Canakkale.

Day 2

After breakfast, take a leisurely drive back to Istanbul and depart on your Mediterranean cruise or to your next destination.
