What travelers are saying
Adem was excellent! Very easy to communicate with prior to the excursion and receptive to changes. He was also very knowledgeable, with a warm and humorous delivery. He did an amazing job of keeping us away from large groups so we could enjoy the sight in peace.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Gisem was an inspiration with her deep knowledge of local history, and its historical context in the greater region. She was a super host and educater and we highly recommend this tour for an immersive experience of Troy and the Canakkale area.
