Fantastic excursion! Guide is knowledgeable and fun! Lunch simple but sufficient. Islands are breath taking! It is so so so worth it!
I was very happy with my tour. Our guide Oktay was very attentive and helpful. The tour was definitely worth the money. Everything was wonderful, and I highly recommend it to everyone.
We had a wonderful time on the tour. Our guide was very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour.
We booked the prince islands tour with them. From start to finish it was great experience. Everything was very well organized and the tour went so smooth. The boat ride was fantastic, we rented bicycles on Buyukada and saw almost all around the island in 2 hours, the free time given was enough to do all the main attractions on the island. The lunch on the boat was a different experience. The stuff on the boat was very friendly. And the guide was very professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely suggest this tour to my friends visiting Istanbul soon
Everythinkg was perfect thanks
I found a very good price on this tour. I was from london so found the food very good served on the board with various options. The staff was found very good also huge kudos to Oktay for helping all around and making up the environment. All and all i would recommend this service.
Tour bus picked us up from the hotel on-time and took us to a ferry port, about an hour boat ride to two of the largest prince's islands, had free lunch on the second stop, Buyukada. I have to say Soliman was so respectful and amazing, helped and answered any questions we had, even helped us get an Istanbul Card from the local machine to get on the electric bus at Buyukada.. I would definitely recommend this tour for peace of mind, definitely worth the money you spend on it!!
Really enjoyed this tour, as a solo traveler with a mobility impairment I felt safe and well looked after, the guides are kind and thoughtful to the guests needs while making sure we are all having a good time, The islands are beautiful and a welcome peaceful few hours after the excitement of Istanbul Thoroughly recommend this tour
It was very nice experince , ı enjoyed a lot . The guide mr gunay was so informative , lunch was delicious.
Getting to know and falling in love with Turkey while traveling on a boat that crosses the Bosphorus and takes you to see some islands full of charm, magic, and color, I found the warmth of its inhabitants, and with the tranquility and security of the best guides who made my vacation an unforgettable memory and a huge desire to return!!
It's been a wonderful tour! We visited the islands of Heibeliada and Buyukada. On the Heybeliade I really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful historical streets. On Buyukada, I bathed, rented a bike and enjoyed exploring the island. It was a really memorable day. At the end of the tour, we visited a leather store where we watched a beautiful fashion show. I even bought myself a stylish and high-quality leather jacket. Everything was perfectly organized. Our guide Octai was very attentive, friendly and professional. I sincerely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore the Princes Islands!
It was a wonderful tour, thank you for everything!
We had a very enjoyable and fun day, we will definitely try the other tours too 🫶🫶
I had a wonderful day. Even though I went alone, I wasn't bored at all. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The music and refreshments were wonderful. I couldn't believe there was such a clean bay so close to Istanbul. I would like to extend my thanks to the entire team and wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone.
Price, quality, performance. Mr. Oktay was very helpful and attentive to our needs, thank you very much.
Of many tours that can also be booked with the Istanbul card this I do not recommend. Appointment made no later than 9 am, in our case with a wait of more than 2 hours on the boat to wait for the boat to arrive with the fuel, and then cross the Bosphorus and reach two islands where there is absolutely nothing to visit except the local holiday resorts. Restaurants, bars, and gift shops. To navigate the Bosphorus there are better 2 or 3 hour tours where you can enjoy a sunset or dine with a show on board. Lunch on board is minimal and hectic consisting of a single course, a glass of water and a slice of cake. All other drinks are extra.
Monday through Friday 9 am to 7 pm EST
