- Guided Princes Island Tour in Istanbul
Overview
With their gorgeous beauties, historical texture, and calm atmosphere, Istanbul’s islands not only include Istanbul’s historical and cultural beauties but also offer you a natural and quiet trip. On this tour, you will travel by cruise from the Bosphorus and visit Büyükada, the largest island of Istanbul.
You will be picked up from your hotel by bus and start your tour with your professional and licensed guide at the meeting place. On your journey to Büyükada, you will see the most beautiful sights of Istanbul such as Topkapı Palace and Maiden’s Tower from afar. After your boat anchors in Büyükada, start touring and exploring the island on your own! You will then return to the boat, and your guide will tell you about the life of the island, its history, and interesting events that happened in the past. Feel free to ask questions about the island! Because many exiled statesmen were found on this island and its history dates back to the Byzantine period.
There are many architectural structures belonging to the Ottoman Period on this island, especially the wooden mansions.
Afterward, you will have lunch and explore the island again. In this free time, you can go to the Aya Yorgi church, one of the most famous buildings of the Big Island, shop, take pictures in interesting places, or tour by buggy or bicycle. You will return to the boat at the time determined by your guide and enjoy the Bosphorus view in the evening. At the end of your journey, you will be dropped off at your Istanbul hotel by bus.
Detailed information about the tour and guide contact information will reach you after booking.
