Itinerary

After being picked up from your hotels for your tour and meeting your guide at the departure point head to the port for your boat trip. Nine Princes’ Islands are located in the Marmara Sea. In the Byzantium era islands were used as exile for princes so they are called Princes’ islands. The islands are famous for their beautiful beaches, incredible houses, small villas and peaceful surroundings, especially the pine trees. We will join the Boat Trip and enjoy the beautiful views of Istanbul from sea for more than one hour. Buyuk Ada is the biggest island among the other ones and it’s famous for its clean air because of not using vehicles and only riding electric phateon from bottom to top of the island passing by all beautiful views and natural forest with ten minute break on the top of the island and finally we will visit a shopping mall in the city. After the tour we will visit a touristic shop.
