Here’s an overview of your tour

Let me take you to an adventurous 18 hour road trip to visit Ancient Greek ruins of Troya and Assos.

Troya's history goes back to 13th Century B.C. and known to be mentioned in the scripts of Homeros Ilyada. This is a chance to revive this story!

Assos is one of the important settlements of Ancient times, founded on the rocks of the Andesite, at the foot of a volcano, opposing the Edremit Bay and facing the Lesbos Island (Mytilene). It is one of the places where Athena Temple stands like untouched. Here are a lot of opportunities to swim and eat good food.

Manyas Bird Sanctuary National Park has 266 birds, 118 plants and 23 fish species around the Manyas Lake and is vital for various reptile species. Very good place to take photos!
