Travel at your own pace on this six-day private Gallipoli & Bursa tour, arranged exclusively for your own party and tailor-made by Inca Tour, a TURSAB-licensed operator, with a private English-speaking guide and a private air-conditioned vehicle throughout, departing on the dates you choose. From your seafront base in Çanakkale you cross the Dardanelles to the Gallipoli Peninsula, one of the most moving battlefield landscapes in the world. A full private day takes in Eceabat, the Kilitbahir Fortress guarding the strait, Seddülbahir at the tip of the peninsula and Anzac Cove, where Australian and New Zealand forces landed in April 1915, together with the cemeteries and memorials that honour the fallen on every side.
Between the history there is time to live like a local. You join a hands-on Turkish cooking class and share the meal you have prepared, browse the markets of Çanakkale, and unwind in a traditional Turkish bath. A full day is given to Bursa, the first capital of the Ottoman Empire and a UNESCO-listed city: here you visit the tombs of the dynasty's founders, Osman Gazi and Orhan Gazi, step inside the monumental twenty-domed Ulu Cami (Grand Mosque) with its celebrated calligraphy and fountain, and pause beneath a plane tree said to be centuries old. With five nights' hotel accommodation, daily breakfast, guided excursions and a private air-conditioned vehicle, it is an easygoing blend of remembrance, culture and everyday Turkish life. Prices are per person.

Welcome to Türkiye. On arrival you are met and privately transferred to your hotel on the Çanakkale seafront, the Troia Tusan Hotel beside the Dardanelles strait. After check-in the rest of the day is yours to rest and settle in, stroll the waterfront promenade or watch the ferries crossing to the Gallipoli side. Your guide confirms the plan for the days ahead. Overnight in Çanakkale.
After breakfast you cross to the Gallipoli Peninsula for a full guided day among the battlefields and memorials of the 1915 campaign. You see the Kilitbahir Fortress that has guarded the narrows since Ottoman times, the village of Eceabat, and Seddülbahir at the southern tip of the peninsula. At Anzac Cove your guide tells the story of the landings and the long months of trench warfare that followed, and you visit the clifftop cemeteries and commemorative sites that remember the soldiers of all nations who died here. Overnight in Çanakkale.
Today is about Turkish daily life. You take part in a hands-on cooking class, learning to prepare a selection of classic Turkish dishes before sitting down to enjoy the lunch you have made. Afterwards there is free time to explore the shops and markets of Çanakkale for spices, textiles and souvenirs, with your guide on hand for recommendations. Overnight in Çanakkale.
This morning you experience a traditional Turkish bath, or hamam — the centuries-old ritual of warm marble, steam, an invigorating scrub and a foam wash that leaves you thoroughly relaxed. The remainder of the day is free to enjoy the hotel and the seafront at your own pace, or to revisit the town. Overnight in Çanakkale.
A full day in Bursa, the first capital of the Ottoman Empire and a city listed by UNESCO. With your guide you visit the tombs of Osman Gazi and Orhan Gazi, the founders of the Ottoman dynasty, and step inside the Ulu Cami (Grand Mosque), famous for its twenty domes, its ornate fountain and its sweeping panels of calligraphy. You also pause beneath a plane tree said to be centuries old and take in the atmosphere of this green and historic city before returning to Çanakkale. Overnight in Çanakkale.
After breakfast and check-out you are privately transferred to the airport for your onward journey, with time to reflect on a week spent among battlefields, Ottoman monuments and the everyday life of the Turkish coast. End of the tour.

My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
