- Visiting the Blue Mosque &
Hippodrome
After the city tour you will have a
lunch break before departing for
Gallipoli and on the way your guide
will give you some information about
the Gallipoli region and the battles
that took place so when you visit
the various sites on Anzac Day you
will understand their importance.
You will also have an opportunity to
watch a documentary or movie about
the Gallipoli campaign so you get a
feel for the type of people who
fought in this war and to help you
picture conditions 96 years ago.
Upon arriving near Gallipoli there
will be time for a dinner break
before we make our way to Anzac
Cove for the overnight stay at
the cove.

pack for carrying things with you

it again until arriving back in
Istanbul on the evening of the 25th.
Your main luggage will be securely
locked away in the coach overnight.
Please also note that the weather in
Anzac Cove overnight can get very
cold so we suggest you bring
sleeping bags, blankets and warm
