A Journey to Troy: History, Comfort, and Great Food - The entire trip went very smoothly. Although the drive was quite long (it took three hours from Istanbul), the bus was equipped with USB charging ports, so we didn’t have to worry about battery issues at all. Our tour guide was a local, which meant he had extensive knowledge about Troy and gave us a detailed explanation. Also, the lunch was quite good.

Great experience for a great site in history - It was always my dream to go see Troy. Learn the history and see the devastation of bad archaeological decisions. This tour gave me an experience along with amazing views of the Dardenelles. I was lucky enough to get the vegetarian meal for lunch, which was absolutely great. We had one new tour guide being certified named Sam. He was more than helpful and very pleasant.

Great tour - Our guide J was so knowledgeable and you could easily see and feel his passion. He had great energy and the day was long but interesting and fun. I went with my 8 and 10 year old, both enjoyed it very much. This tour includes the ancient site and the museum. Most other tours only include the site, so this one is definitely the one to pick. The bus was very nice, with charging ports at each seat, as was the ferry.

Gentle landscapes and thrilling history - If you are a history enthusiast, this tour is well worth the time. Though many hours are spent in the bus or on the ferry it was relaxing and enjoyable to get out of the city and observe the rolling hills, sunflower fields and seascape! The tour was very informative and the Cindy's approach, pace and knowledge was outstanding!

If you wantes to see the horse and the ruins - Most of the time you will be on the bus as it's a very very long drive, and total a couple hours on the sites and the museum. Best if you are interested in its history!
