I recently had the pleasure of taking the Princes’ island tour in the Marmara Sea, and it was an unforgettable experience. The tour provided a perfect escape from the busy city and transported me to a serene and charming island paradise. The ferry ride to Büyükada, the largest of the Princes Islands, was a scenic journey that allowed me to take in the beauty of the Marmara Sea. Upon arrival, I was struck by the island’s peaceful and quaint atmosphere. The absence of cars on the island only added to its charm, and I felt like I had stepped back in time. Our knowledgeable guide provided interesting historical and cultural insights, which made the experience even more enriching. One of the highlights of the tour was the stunning panoramic view of Istanbul from the hilltop. The view was simply breathtaking, and I was grateful for the opportunity to take in the city from a different perspective. The food was both delicious and a great way to experience the island’s unique culture. Overall, I highly recommend the Princes Island Tour in the Marmara Sea to anyone visiting Istanbul. The tour offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, history, and culture, and is a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a day. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Really attractive islands in the Marmara Sea. Our favorite island is Heybeliada island. Yes, Big Island (Buyukada) is the largest and offers the most site-seeing, but Heybeliada offers so much nature, pretty streets, etc. So relaxing for us! I went twice to both of them (Buyukada and Heybeliada). Such a nice relaxing break from the city. The ferry rides over is relaxing too! Must-do a day!

Toursce tourism is a good tourism agency in Istanbul. With the Toursce tourism guide, we have a wonderful day to enjoy the 2 islands near Istanbul in the Marmara sea. Both islands in the Marmara sea are nice and with many luxe villas. The boat was comfortable. The lunch was included in the day trip. The tour guide gives good information about the islands and their staff was friendly and helpful.

It was a pleasant one-day excursion from Istanbul to islands in the Marmara Sea. The Prince’s islands are at a distance of a 90-minute ferry ride from Istanbul, a delightful 90 minutes that afford an ever-changing panorama of this fantastic city. Go and seat on the ship top deck and watch the cityscape pass by while sipping on some freshly squeezed juice, or a brew of Turkish tea. You can either rent out a bicycle, hire a battery vehicle or just walk around. We chose to walk a little while, soaking in the quaint little bungalows and summer homes that line the small pathway up the hill, once you get past the busy dock area. The place is incredibly safe and that is a welcome change from the hustle-bustle of Istanbul. Make sure you carry along enough water as the trek is uphill and one will need to take regular breaks, that also give you the opportunity to turn back then look down the hill towards the distant Istanbul shores. There was a gorgeous church at an hour’s walk uphill along with a restaurant that has tremendous views. Closer to the dock there are plenty of restaurants serving fresh seafood, snacks, and ice cream. Save a day for yourself and definitely visit this place.
