Memorable
Our guide TJ was outstanding — passionate, deeply respectful, and clearly devoted to Gallipoli’s history. His knowledge is rooted in serious research and a genuine love for the land, which made every stop meaningful. A powerful and memorable experience.

Amazing Gallipoli Tour
We recently had the pleasure of doing this tour with TJ. It was an amazing experience. TJ is an amazing guide and he really made this tour a personal experience. His extensive knowledge of the site and his deep understanding of the cultures of both sides of this conflict added to the experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in Gallipoli.

long but rewarding day
I was only in Istanbul for 1 full day and was so grateful to TJ, who offered to take me even if no one else booked (fortunately they did, so it wasn't just me, but I appreciate the opportunity to be able to do this regardless). This was such a moving experience. TJ was knowledgeable about all the locations relevant to the ANZACs and pointed out the NZ stuff for me and the Aussie stuff for the other couple on the tour.
It was a very long day, but so worth it. If Gallipoli is on your bucket list, I definitely recommend this tour.

Heartfelt thanks to TJ.
TJ was just so friendly and informative (which as four New Zealand tourists) we really appreciated. TJ provided his full & interesting but thorough commentary about Gallipoli whilst his experienced driver drove us around to each site then the museum in a very comfortable vehicle. Very emotional but a most memorable day I will never forget.

Gallipoli tour - sensational!-Just Do It!
Do the tour with TJ- you won't regret it!
TJ grew up around the Gallipoli penninsula and married an Aussie( his hotel even provides vegimite toast). His knowledge is impeccable and incredibly informative ( About all sides ANZACs Turks and others)
He is also a really fun guy who loves a chat and all things ANZAC/ Gallipoli related. (Bonus the van is beautifully air- conditioned 😊)
