Intrepid Travel will reintroduce its ANZAC Day Dawn Service trip in 2023, allowing Aussies and Kiwis to once again pay their respects and commemorate the important day in Turkey after an absence of three years.

With just one tour offered and capped at 44 people, the Intrepid Travel 2023 ANZAC Day Dawn Service trip in April 2023 will offer a moving and educational experience.

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime tour for Aussie and Kiwi travellers, starting in Istanbul, Turkey before a six-hour journey to the Gallipoli Peninsula.

The trip includes a night under the stars and participation in the moving Gallipoli Dawn Service. For any Australian or New Zealander visiting Turkey, a visit to the Gallipoli Peninsula battlefields is a must.

Intrepid Travel Managing Director ANZ Brett Mitchell said: “After two long years of uncertainty, we are pleased to announce the return of our ANZAC Day Dawn Service Tour for 2023.”

“With the COVID-19 pandemic bringing the tour to a halt for the last three years, next year is an opportunity for Australians and New Zealanders to visit the country that holds so much meaning on this very special day.”

This event is organised by the Australian, New Zealand and Turkish governments and details can change.

Attendees of the dawn service and ANZAC commemorations should register online with the Department of Veteran Affairs in New Zealand or Australia.  Register here
