"The heroes who shed their blood on the soil of this homeland, you are now resting in the bosom of a friendly nation. Sleep in peace and tranquility. You are side by side with the Mehmetçiks, shoulder to shoulder. Mothers who sent your sons from distant lands to this war, dry your tears. Your sons are in our hearts. After they gave their lives on this land, they have become our children."

18th March 1934- Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

We begin our journey early in the morning, heading towards Gallipoli for an afternoon tour. At 11:15, we will stop in Eceabat for a short break, and then continue towards the Gallipoli battlefields, once the site of intense conflict during World War I. Today, these lands stand as symbols of peace and serenity, yet they still carry the unforgettable marks of the heroic tales and sacrifices made here.

Our first visit will be to the Lone Pine Australian Memorial, honoring the bravery of the Australian soldiers. Next, we will visit the Chunuk Bair New Zealand Memorial, symbolizing the courage and dedication of the New Zealand soldiers. At ANZAC Cove, we will pause to remember the fallen heroes and reflect on the deep legacy of war these shores hold. Finally, we will visit Johnston’s Jolly, where we will contemplate the painful years this land endured. After this profound journey, we will return to Istanbul, arriving at approximately 21:30, completing this emotional and historical tour.
