hectic city, enjoy a more quiet village life and share it with some of the
visitors of the Gallipoli Battlefields.

Many people are convinced that
getting here
and
touring the Gallipoli
Peninsula is a major
adventure and requires preparation simular to a Mt Everest Expedition. ...
Nothing is less true and the Peninsula can be
reached in a comfortable
and safe way by individual travellers throughout the
year.
Dear Eric and Özlem,
... my break in Gallipoli was really three dimensional,
first of course was the absolutely superb accommodation, secondly your
hospitality and care could not be bettered anywhere, and thirdly the food
was really out of this world and was a joy to experience, both its quality,
presentation, and not least of all it quantity was absolutely first class.
Although I embarked on my sole journey filled with a certain level of
trepidation, my arrival at the Gallipoli Houses and your welcome caused any
worries I may have had to dissolve completely, I felt totally at ease in the
company of everyone, and felt I was less of a visitor more of a friend, your
extremely helpful advice as I set out each day on my adventures was really
appreciated and gave me every confidence in the task I had set myself during
my visit.

A
large
collection of pictures
taken during numerous walks, complimented with period pictures and
passages from the many books
that have been written on this ill-fated campaign. In no way is this an
attempt to give an overview of the campaign, nor is this an online guidebook,
but rather a
kaleidoscope on the Gallipoli campaign.
