Go beyond the bus tour and connect with the history of Gallipoli on a profoundly personal level. Our “In Their Footsteps” walking tour is a unique opportunity to trace the original paths of the ANZAC soldiers, from their dawn landing on April 25, 1915, into the rugged hills and treacherous front lines where the legend was forged. By walking this hallowed ground, you gain a perspective that is simply impossible to appreciate from a vehicle. Feel the steepness of the climbs, see the commanding Turkish positions, and understand the immense challenges the soldiers faced.
Led by our expert battlefield guide, this full-day trek is designed for those who wish to gain a deeper, more tactile understanding of the campaign. The journey begins at ANZAC Cove, the iconic landing beach, before heading up to key sites like Plugge’s Plateau, the Australian Memorial at Lone Pine, and the maze of original trenches at Johnston’s Jolly. We’ll stand at The Nek, the site of the infamous Light Horse charge, and ascend to Chunuk Bair, the highest point captured by the Allies.
This tour is more than a history lesson; it’s a physical and emotional pilgrimage. Standing in the quiet gullies and on the windswept ridges, you’ll hear the stories of bravery and sacrifice that echo through the landscape. It’s an intimate, powerful, and unforgettable way to honor the men who walked these very trails over a century ago.
