So much solid info on history, battles, mistakes, etc….our guide was excellent

Our guide Hassan was an absolute asset to this trip. He bought the Gallipoli experience alive. His photo resources added immensely to the experience. His knowledge is extensive and he gave both sides of the story. As a history teacher I found his insights invaluable and will add them to my teaching of the topic. The final touch of listening to the song 'And the band played Waltzing Matilda' really finished of the emotion- filled day.
