Hereos...

Heroes shed their blood and lost their lives. You are now lying in this soil of a friendly country therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side. Here, in this country of ours.. you, the mothers, who sent their sons from far away countries, wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace, after having lost their lives on this land, they have become our sons as well. M.K. Ataturk 1934

Dawn Service

Price : 145 Euro - Anzac Day Tour; The Dawn Service

Day 1 Saturday 24th April / Istanbul to Gallipoli

Welcome to Istanbul. We meet at our office in Istanbul for an early morning departure to the WW1 battlefields of Gallipoli. Along the way we will stop for a meal break and a chance to stock up on supplies and rations to see you through the night and the following day. Once we arrive at the Gallipoli peninsula, we will take you on an orientation tour of the battlefields before we arrive at our final destination of Anzac Cove in the early evening, to secure a good spot on the grass for the long night ahead.

Overnight ANZAC Cove (Please note: no accommodation is available on this night as you will sleep under the stars as the ANZAC's did 95 years before)

Day 2 Sunday 25th April / ANZAC Day at Gallipoli

Awake before sunrise to the Anzac Dawn service and commemorate our fallen fore fathers on this special day. The Gallipoli battlefields are well sign posted so you can walk amidst the various cemeteries, trenches and memorials on your way to Lone Pine and Chunuk Bair to attend the Australian, Turkish and New Zealand memorial services.

Please Note: - your pass finishes in Eceabat after the memorial services.
