to explore Istanbul and you will meet your guide later that evening who will
give you information about the tour and answer any questions you might have.

then your tour includes an airport transfer to your hotel and you will be met at
the airport by the Samyeli Travel team. Paid airport transfers from Sabiha
Gokcen Airport in Istanbul on the 23rd April are also available at
certain times (Please see FAQs) and if arriving by alternative means then you

After breakfast we will take in this amazing city through a guided tour which
will include the following:
- Golden Horn
- Saray Burnu for Panoramic views of Istanbul
- Visiting Hagia (St.) Sophia
- 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 97 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.
Overnight: Anzac Cove
Meals Included: Breakfast
Important: Please bring a day pack for carrying things with you overnight
at Anzac Cove and the next day in Gallipoli as once you put your main luggage on
the coach on the morning of the 24th in Istanbul you will not have
chance to access 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 clothing for
this stay and even a wet weather jacket in the event that it rains.
Day Three: Wednesday 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. After the New
Zealand service we will board the bus (either at Lone Pine or Chunuk Bair) and
head to Eceabat where we will have a short break for something to eat and
refreshments. After this short break we will continue to Istanbul arriving in
the late evening.
