Istanbul: Princes' Islands Private Guided Boat Tour + Optional Lunch
About this experience
Join a full-day guided tour of the Princes’ Islands from Istanbul, with hotel pickup in the morning.
Board the boat and cruise across the Marmara Sea. See Istanbul’s skyline, Bosphorus bridges, and landmarks as your guide shares information about the city and islands.
First, visit Heybeliada and spend an hour exploring on your own. Then, continue to Büyükada, the largest of the islands.
Have a Turkish lunch on the boat if you select this option. Then, enjoy free time to explore the streets, rent a bike or scooter, or take an electric car tour (not included in the ticket).
Later, meet your guide for the return trip to Istanbul. You may also visit a local leather shop before returning to your hotel.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
