8-Day All-Inclusive Aegean Special Tour Package

Highlights of the 8-Day All-Inclusive Aegean Special Tour

Discover the classical treasures of the Aegean on this eight-day tour that pairs imperial Istanbul and the Gallipoli battlefields with Troy, Pergamon, Ephesus and Pamukkale, arranged in-house by Inca Tour, a TURSAB-licensed operator since 2007 with your own English-speaking guide. Four nights at an all-inclusive hotel in Kuşadası — with meals, soft drinks and alcohol — make it a relaxing, great-value way to see the highlights of western Turkey.

• Istanbul — the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Hippodrome and the bazaar.
• Gallipoli & Troy — the First World War memorials and the legendary city of the Trojan Horse.
• Pergamon — the dramatic hilltop acropolis, temples and ancient library.
• Ephesus & Şirince — the Library of Celsus, the Temple of Artemis, the Seven Sleepers and the wine village of Şirince.
• Pamukkale — the white travertine terraces and Roman Hierapolis, plus an all-inclusive Kuşadası base.

The tour opens in Istanbul with the Blue Mosque, the Hippodrome, Hagia Sophia and the bazaar, before travelling west to the moving battlefields of Gallipoli — the Kabatepe Museum, Anzac Cove, Lone Pine and Chunuk Bair — and the fabled ruins of Troy. You then climb the spectacular acropolis of Pergamon, with its temples and the site of one of antiquity's greatest libraries, and settle into your all-inclusive hotel in Kuşadası.

From this comfortable base you explore magnificent Ephesus — the Temple of Artemis, Curetes Street, the Roman baths, the Library of Celsus and the Grand Theatre — the İsa Bey Mosque and the cave of the Seven Sleepers, and spend a day in the Greek-built wine village of Şirince. A final excursion takes you to the dazzling terraces of Pamukkale and Roman Hierapolis before you fly home from İzmir. With an all-inclusive resort, guiding and most meals included, it is a superb-value Aegean escape. Prices are per person and fall as your group grows.
