Princess Island (Büyükada)Tour with Lunch and Island Shuttle Trip

Description

Many travel agencies in Istanbul offer island tours, but we are truly different! Most tours claim to visit 2 or 3 islands just to make the itinerary look attractive, but these extra stops are a waste of time and leave guests feeling like they’ve just taken a long boat ride without guide and nothing special to do. The only island truly worth visiting is Büyükada, and that’s exactly where we focus. With us, you won’t waste time on unnecessary stops—instead, you’ll enjoy real time on the island, exploring its beauty and atmosphere the right way. Büyükada is the crown jewel of the Princes’ Islands, famous for its peaceful car-free streets, historic Ottoman mansions, pine-covered hills, and stunning sea views. While many travelers who take standard tours come back saying there’s nothing to do on the islands, our guests say the opposite—because we take the experience one step further with an ısland shuttle vehicle tour that brings the island’s history, culture, and hidden corners to life.

I had an excellent experience. As planned, the tour guide picked me at Conrad Istanbul Ilisian Hotel and accompanied me on the entire trip, including on the boat. He told us history and background of all attractions and arranged for an excellent lunch. Finally, dropped us back to the hotel.

Perfect!

Hamza was an exceptional guide! Our group included kids and he was incredibly patient, paced the walk perfectly, and kept everyone entertained. The logistics were flawless, and he went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time!

A vacation to turkiÿe

Our guide was Mr.Hamza. His meetup and departure time was perfect. As pathetic his jokes were (which were somehow funny), he was a good guide having knowledge on every area we visited. A good guide would recommend and use again.

Excursion.

Even though we know little English, we had a great time and received excellent guidance. We booked with a lunch option and were very satisfied. I highly recommend this island to take a break from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul for a few hours.
