As a New Zealander I found Gallipoli a very though provoking place to visit. The guide provided was excellent and the group small enough that we could all hear. The long trip (5+ hours each way) was worth it just to visit the sites at Gallipoli.

Best tour I have been on in Turkey. The shuttle pick up was on time, the shuttle had AC and the included lunch was delicious. The best part of the tour was our very knowledgeable and humorous guide, Burak. He knew his history from an ANZAC and Turkish perspective and engaged our entire group. If you’re thinking of a day trip to Galipolli book with OneNation.

I did the Gallipoli day tour from Istanbul with these guys and would recommend it to everyone. Josh was our driver and he did a great job. Our guide Burak was outstanding, he blended historical insight with collected stories and his own perspective. The story I tell others about my emotional and memorable day at Gallipoli will mention Burak – great day

All was as described. We were picked up from our hotel in Istanbul for the 4 hour drive (once all pickups had been made) to the Gallipoli Peninsular. There was a half hour break on the way to and from Eceabat. We had a good lunch at a local restaurant. Both drivers on the way to and from the Gallipoli Peninsular were excellent. Burak was our highly knowledgeable guide for the afternoon and he explained the history from not only the British, Australian, New Zealand perspective but also explained the history from the Turkish perspective. Would highly recommend this trip.
