Pick up from the hotel in Istanbul and travel to the ancient city of Troy, one of the oldest inhabited settlements in the region, which began as a small village in Neolithic times and expanded to become one of the most powerful cities in the Bronze Age.
Learn about the fascinating history of this place, rediscovered in the 19th century by the German archaeologist Schliemann, a true pioneer.
Listen to the stories of the Trojan wars, immortalized by Homer, with the beautiful Helena, the impetuous Paris, the brave Achilles and of course the 'wooden horse', turned into a symbol that has survived to this day.
Continue to Canakkale or Lamsacos to take the ferry through the Dardanelles, arriving in Istanbul in the evening.
