“A must-do! Great value for the price. We loved the atmosphere on board and the staff were wonderful. A special shout-out to our guide, Oktay, who was incredible; his English was perfect and he was very clear and welcoming. The lunch was tasty and satisfying. The islands are stunning and so serene this time of year—December is perfect if you want to avoid the big crowds”

He even accommodated us on the next ferry when I lost my husband in the crowd for a short period and we missed our ferry. I couldn't admire the services more.”

Ferry to Heybeliada and Buyukada with hotel transfer and lunch included. A simple, scenic break from Istanbul in 6 to 7 hours.

“My one criticism was that it took over 2 hours before the ship left the dock. It was a big and diverse tour group. The boat trip is very relaxing. The islands are pretty to wander around, but there is really not much to do there. The lunch on board ship was good. This is a good tour to fill up a day after you have seen everything else.”

“Beaucoup trop de problèmes d'intendance ont un peu gâché cette journée. Tout d'abord, alors que cela m'avait été confirmé par écrit, j'ai appris la veille que le transfert ne s'était pas assuré depuis mon hôtel, celui-ci étant "hors zone" . Il aurait été bien sûr beaucoup mieux de le savoir avant et que ça nécessite pas confirmé. On me communique donc un lieu de départ où je tente de me rendre en taxi...sauf que ledit lieu n'était pas accessible ce jour-là (fête nationale) car un évènement bloquait l'accès. Donc, on a fini difficilement à pied avec des explications très brouillonnes, ça a été miraculeux que l'on trouve le bateau. Ensuite,…”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 80 reviews · 7 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $39

A full Princes’ Islands day from Istanbul with boat crossings and lunch included, plus Heybeliada pine walks and Büyükada beach time.

“The islands were beautiful but the tour was nothing special. The leather show at the end and the way they transported us back to taksim square was offensive. Not recommend this tour. They charge you for drinks, for snacks after paying for the tour and the only thing they give you is the lunch . The leather show was absolutely meaningless!! On the way back from the harbor , in the middle of town they picked up other tourist and we could hardly sit comfortable in the bus ! Disrespectful!”

Private Princes’ Islands tour with hotel pickup, guided ferry ride, Büyükada sights, Aya Yorgi Church climb, and a calm island schedule.

“There are actually 4 islands, make sure you ask which one you are going to because the biggest island is the furthest, 2 hours on a ferry which is not made clear on itinerary. The biggest island is the one with the church and orphanage in the itinerary. So on realising this when we got on the ferry, we opted for going to Island no2, smaller and quieter and is full of cats, if you are a cat lover, its brilliant. Guide gives you cat food too. Lovely walk up the hill to the top of the island has beautiful views. In all honesty it's the perfect spot for a…”
