Half Day Princes' Islands Tour
Things to know
About the Activity
Our journey begins with a 1.5-hour scenic ferry ride, offering stunning views of Istanbul’s skyline while you enjoy tea and simit, just like the locals. Once on the island, you’ll explore its peaceful car-free streets, historic wooden mansions, and charming hidden corners. Your local guide will share stories from the island’s rich multicultural past, and you’ll get to see all the major highlights — from lush nature parks to the historic Aya Yorgi Church perched on top of the island. You’ll also enjoy a cup of Turkish coffee or tea — and if you're up for it, we can read your coffee fortune for a fun local touch! Want to explore more on your own? Bikes are available to rent on the island.4 hours to 5 hours
