Anzac Day - Tours
A number of tour companies offer ANZAC-themed tours,
principally to Gallipoli on the north-western coast
of Turkey. Tours can range from a quick 'once
over lightly' backpacker experience to an expertly
guided historical review of the battlefields and surrounding
locations. Tours to northern France can also
be taken, although most of these deal with the conflict
in general, rather than the ANZAC's specifically.
