A fantastic day tour from Istanbul! The Princes Islands are incredibly peaceful and the scenery is stunning. I loved the boat trip and the opportunity to explore the island at our own pace. The atmosphere was relaxing and the views of the sea and pine forests were amazing. Definitely worth doing if you want to see another side of Istanbul.

This tour was one of the highlights of our visit to Istanbul. The ferry journey was very enjoyable and the islands are truly beautiful. Walking around Büyükada, seeing the traditional houses and the quiet streets without cars was a unique experience. Everything was well organized and the guide was very friendly.

The Princess Islands tour was a wonderful escape from the busy streets of Istanbul. The boat ride across the Sea of Marmara offered beautiful views of the city skyline. Büyükada was peaceful and charming, with lovely streets and historic houses. We had enough free time to explore and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended for a calm and scenic day trip.
