Troy and Pergamon Tour: Canakkale to Kusadasi

Troy Ancient CityWalk through the excavated site with a guide who explains how successive settlements occupied the same ground. The remains give a setting for the stories associated with Troy while showing the city’s longer history.

Trojan Horse replicaSee the wooden horse replica at the archaeological site entrance. It is a modern representation of the Trojan Horse story and a separate photo stop from the ancient remains.

Sacrificial AltarsVisit the stone remains associated with worship and offerings in ancient Troy. The guide explains their place in the sanctuary and the later settlement.

Ancient City Walls and Settlement LayersLook at the defensive walls and exposed layers from different building periods. Seeing these remains together helps explain why Troy is read as a sequence of settlements.

Restaurant lunch on the journey southPause for a meal between the archaeological visits. Lunch is included in the day’s arrangements, with drinks paid separately.

Pergamon AcropolisExplore the upper city built on terraces above Bergama. The guide connects the remains across the hillside and explains how the high ground shaped the city’s layout.

Temple of AthenaSee the temple area on one of the acropolis terraces. This was part of Pergamon’s religious and civic centre, close to the ancient library and theatre.

Ancient TheatreView the theatre’s steep rows of seating cut into the hillside. Its position makes the relationship between the upper terraces and the slope below especially clear.
