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: It 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.

Troy and Pergamon Tour from Canakkale to Kusadasi/Selcuk reviews

4.52 reviews

Best transfer day I've ever done. Instead of just driving from Canakkale to Kusadasi we hit Troy and Pergamon along the way and arrived feeling like we had actually done something. Guide was knowlegable about both sites, gave us the right amount of context without lecturing. Lunch break was at a roadside place that turned out to be really good. Pergamon theater is dizzying when you look down from the top row. Loved it.

Smart way to combine two ancient cities instead of doing them separately. Picked up at our Canakkale hotel at 8:30 and dropped off in Kusadasi just past 8pm. Troy was smaller than I expected honestly, the replica horse is iconic but the actual ruins are more layered than visual. Pergamon though, Pergamon was the showstopper. The acropolis on the hill with that ancient theater carved into the slope is unreal. Asclepion healing center had me wishing I had more time. Long day but a productive one.
