    About this experience

    Travel back to the days of the Trojan War and such legends of ancient history as Helen of Troy, Achilles, and Homer on a full-day tour of “Truva” (the historic city of Troy). Gaze on the remains of city walls that date back more than 3,000 years, and learn about landmark ruins and monuments, such as the Temple of Athena, Megaron House, and trench of Schliemann. Explore the death of Achilles near the Scaean Gate, and discover the site where the Trojan Horse was probably taken at the Gate of Troy VI. See the remains of the Roman Bath, discover where the city’s music shows and poetry readings were held at the Odeon, and go to the ruins of the Bouleuterion where the council of citizens would meet. Learn about everyday life in the city at the remains of the Agora (market place) and more. Your tour of the ruins ends at 16:30 PM with a transfer back to Istanbul at 16:45 PM, and a hotel drop off at approximately 21:30 PM.

    Horrible experience. Never again!

    Viator completely betrayed me and ripped me off. I did not think to check messages on the App, telling me the provider would meet me at a different time and location from the one repeatedly confirmed by email and text message. Causing me to miss the entire day trip and refusing to refund me for this poor communication. Never again!

    Response from the operator: Dear KIMBERLY MILLER; Thank you for your review but we dont have any mistake on this tour.We use the communication channels that the Viator system necessarily provides us with.When you changed hotels, you were given a meeting point near your hotel (large vehicles cannot enter your hotel's street) and the times were specified.You weren't at the meeting point at the tour time, and we tried to contact you using the phone number Viator gave us, but the phone was unreachable...We are very sorry that you were not included in the tour, but this is not our fault. Please contact Viator's guest department.

    Great but could be better

    Really nice guides and drivers. Smooth trip there and back. The horse is under construction - wish I had been told that ahead of time. Also, tourists hate when guides tear down our religions, countries and politics. How is modern foreign politics and Christianity to do anything with Troia? It was really offensive to essentially call religious people stupid. Please teach guides to keep personal opinions to themselves and just teach us the history that we have paid to see and learn. Nice guide and very knowledgeable on Troia but needs a refresher coarse on professionalism and manners.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for choosing us. We have warned our employees (Guide) for the issues you mentioned in the comment. We will try not to repeat it.

    Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.

    How much does Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul cost?

    +

    Prices start at $150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Istanbul usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul take?

    +

    Plan for about 15 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Istanbul is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 15-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Istanbul can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Istanbul and add a light layer if any part of the 15-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Troy Tour From Istanbul start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Istanbul within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Istanbul?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Istanbul experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Istanbul 1, 2 or 3-Day Private Guided Istanbul Tour, Istanbul Luxury Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Asian Side Stop, ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Istanbul?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Istanbul?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
