Our guide was a sweetheart! I was travelling with my mom and the guide was very attentive to her, which made it an easy and memorable trip. He also definitely knows a lot about the city and told us a great deal about Istanbul while we were on the island. This is perfect for companies of 3-5 people. Excellent experience!

Description

There’s a reason why the princes of the Byzantine Empire liked to vacation on these islands – it’s because they are very beautiful!

This full day tour allows you to take a boat out to one of the seven islands – Buyukada – and explore its car-free streets.

You’ll be treated to a ride in a horse drawn carriage to take in the local sights. As you look around the island you'll get a feeling for the relaxed lifestyle of those who live there.

You’ll then enjoy a fresh seafood lunch at a fish restaurant and have time to explore some more before heading back to Istanbul.
