would like to get out of the city maybe and visit some not so heavily populated touristy spots..

That would probably be Istanbul then Weeds

Sounds like a great opportunity.

How far can you get out of Istanbul ?, lots of places to visit - Izmir, Pamukkale, Dalian, Ephesus, Troy, Olu Deniz, Ankara . Turkey has a great coach network and is really easy to get around, you will most like go to Izmir on the way to Galipoli .In Istanbul there is Topkapi Palace, the blue mosque and the Aya sofia mosque is a sight to behold.

Turkey is a great place and EFES Pilsen - the local drop is a great beer and cheap as well. Anywhere on the coast on the Asian side of Turkey is fantastic. Just down from Madavagat is really special.

I found that Turks liked Aussies and were very friendly people. You will have a ball.

Gallipoli is a very solemn place - makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. You keep saying to yourself - "What a Waste".

Enjoy the trip

ANZAC & Gallipoli was like a dream. It was a fantastic place with its history and incredible natural surroundings and also entertainment. I spent 3 unforgettable days in there with my family. I would like to special thanks for the company TTG Travel They provided us a very professional and comfortable vacation Gallipoli Tours & Troy Tour, Private, Daily, Sightseeing, Anzac my trip was wonderful in Gallipoli .The program was planned by Gallipoli daily city tours and i vanna thank you to them because of perfect tours We joined the half day city tour and i can just say it was great.
