Tour Itinerary

Troy & Pergamon Tour with Drop-off in Kusadasi/Selcuk

Meal: Lunch

08:30 - Pick up from your hotel in Canakkale and depart for Troy.

Troy Ancient City: Troy is not a single city but a layered mound of settlements built and rebuilt over thousands of years. During the guided visit, you see the replica Trojan Horse, defensive walls from different periods, the Megaron House, Odeon, and Bouleuterion while your guide connects the archaeological evidence with the legendary world of the Trojan War. The power of Troy is in its layers: myth, Bronze Age trade, earthquakes, rebuilding, and Roman memory all sit on the same hill.

Lunch break after the Troy visit.

Pergamon: Pergamon was one of the most intellectual and dramatic cities of the Hellenistic world, built high above the plain with a commanding acropolis. The visit includes the Acropolis, the Altar of Zeus site, the Library of Pergamon, Asclepion, ancient theater, and major sanctuary remains. What makes Pergamon unique is the combination of political ambition, medical history, steep urban planning, and scholarship: its library once rivaled Alexandria, its theater clings to the hillside, and the Asclepion preserves the memory of one of antiquity's most important healing centers.

17:00 - After Pergamon, drive to your hotel in Kusadasi/Selcuk.

Around 20:00 - Arrival at your hotel in Kusadasi/Selcuk is expected around this time, depending on road and traffic conditions.

Tour services end after hotel drop-off in Kusadasi/Selcuk.

Tour Overview

Why this Troy and Pergamon transfer tour works well

Efficient routing: Travel south from Canakkale while visiting two major archaeological sites.
Hotel-to-hotel comfort: Start at your Canakkale hotel and finish at your hotel in Kusadasi/Selcuk.
Useful alternative: For a longer western Turkey route, compare the 2 Days Pergamon, Troy and Gallipoli Tour from Kusadasi/Selcuk.
Two heavyweight sites in one transfer day: Instead of spending the day only on the road, the route turns the move from Canakkale to the Aegean coast into a serious archaeological program with both Troy and Pergamon.
Better geography for western Turkey: The tour follows a natural southbound line, so you avoid backtracking and arrive ready for Ephesus, Pamukkale, or the Kusadasi/Selcuk coast on the following day.
Myth, medicine, and empire in one route: Troy brings the legendary Bronze Age world, while Pergamon adds Hellenistic power, ancient scholarship, and the healing traditions of Asclepion.
