Full description 

Full Day Princes Islands Tour / In this Private Islands Tour, we pick you up from your location with a private vehicle ( in Istanbul). You can determine the pick-up time with our tour planner. Our driver will bring you comfortably to the pier where our guide is located. After meeting with your guide, you will reach the Princes' Islands with the sea transportation vehicle you have chosen.

You reach the Prince Islands with a wonderful sea voyage. You can enjoy tea and throw a bagel with the seagulls, accompanied by the magnificent view of the Marmara Sea and the Islands.

In our Full Day Princess island tour, we will use private taxis or electric buses on the island. We have determined a very nice route for you on this private tour. You can see the most popular historical structures and natural beauties on the route we have determined.

On our all-day Princes Islands Tour, we visit Büyükada and Heybeliada respectively. But if you wish, we can add Burgazada to your tour.

 

Some of the places you will visit with a local guide during the full-day private islands tour;

  • Buyukada Nature Park: Büyükada, the largest of the Prince Islands with a magnificent nature, is a nature park that starts at the point where the houses end. Here you can see excellent views and walk in a calm and peaceful way with your guide. You can taste delicious food accompanied by the view at the restaurant and cafe serving within the park. This is a very nice location for photography enthusiasts.
  • Hagia Yorgi Church: A mystical church located on Yüce Tepe, the highest point of the Prince Islands. Hagia Yorgi Church takes its name from St Gorch, who lived in Cappadocia in the 3rd century. When the first church built in the mid-17th century was demolished, a second church was built at the beginning of the 19th century. You will hear a thousands-year-old story about this church, which you will visit with a guide.
  • Büyükada Greek Orphanage: The world's first multi-storey wooden building. The building was built as a hotel in 1896. Since the necessary permits could not be obtained, the current owners sold it to a businessman from the island. The new owners donated this large structure, which is the largest wooden building in Europe, to a Greek foundation. A total of 5000 thousand orphans were grow up in this building, which served as an orphanage for nearly sixty years.
  • Buyukada Central: In order to see the other places on the island apart from the historical places, a full island tour takes about 2 hours.
  • Heybeliada: After completing the Büyükada tour, guests will go to Heybeliada if they prefer. Walking on the streets of Heybeliada, which has a quiet atmosphere unlike Büyükada, will make you feel like a part of history.
  • Heybeliada Seminary School: The seminary is located on the site of the Monastery of the Holy Trinity, founded by Patriarch Photius I almost a thousand years before the foundation of the theological school. During Ottoman rule the monastery fell into disrepair. In 1844, Patriarch Germanos IV converted the monastery into a school of theology, which was inaugurated on 1 October 1844. All the buildings, except for the 17th-century chapel, were destroyed by the 1894 Istanbul earthquake, but were rebuilt by architect Periklis Fotiadis and inaugurated on 6 October 1896.
