Your Experience

Escape the buzzing streets of Istanbul by taking a tour of the peaceful Prince’s İslands. Hop aboard a private boat and set sail from the ever-serene Golden Horn, onto the first of 2 islands, Heybeliada.

Heybeliada is the second-largest island in Istanbul. Notice narrow beaches, pine forests, and 19th-century villas- but most intriguing of all, no motor vehicles! Finally, visit Büyükada, the biggest of the islands, with plenty of touristic charm. While you’ll spot Ottoman-Victorian mansions here, this island is also crowded with more modern structures today. While on the boat, a delicious luncheon will be served. Munch on chicken Shish kebabs, cold appetizers, rice, and salad while basking in the picturesque scenery of Istanbul’s Princes Islands. Besides the breathtaking views, historical buildings such as Aya Yorgi Church and Monastery, Ayios Dimitrios Church, Hamidiye Mosque, and more will give you an insight into the history of the Ottoman and Byzantium emperors. The ferry will safely return you to Istanbul and an air-conditioned bus will take you back to your hotel.
