My sister, my brother in law and I went to the Çanakkale for the camping. We stayed assos for 2 nights and 3 mornings. Our campsite was in a very beautiful and safe place, and everything was available to meet your personal needs. Since no one interfered with each other, we had a very comfortable and pleasant time.

It was very safe and peaceful city , in the daytime its quiet and so many people around but i like the nightlife. I stayed at the anzac hotel but there are so many of them i stayed the on that has a doner shop right in front of it.(close to that clock tower) And the hotels food was very salty the fries and meats but overall alright And the wifi was slow. I would recommend the i dont know what is that called but i think it was like a pizza toast or sandwich something that has cheese pepperoni and tomato sauce on the side. It is located right beside my hotel and the owner was very wholesome

Solo travel

Last year i went holiday to Canakkale Bozcaada in solo✌️And it was amazing holiday for me. I stayed in a hotel which is name Kemerbag 29. Hotel was little bit expensive but it was worth it i think🌸 Bozcaada is very safe place you can go and visit there with peace of mind, the people are very kind and very cheerful. And definitely don't leave without eating the gumdrop island cookie, it tasted amazing.🍪😋🤤 You should try also Gökceada Beaches.
