Itinerary
- Istanbul: Board our private boat and sail from Istanbul to Princes' islands.
- Kinaliada: Kınalıada, meaning “Henna Island” due to its reddish soil and hills, is the smallest and closest of the Princes’ Islands to Istanbul. Kınalıada charms visitors with its peaceful ambiance, clear waters, and local authenticity. Because it is the first stop on the ferry route, it offers a quick and easy island escape for those seeking tranquility without the crowds. Discover Kınalıada freely and on your own schedule.
- Burgazada: Burgazada, meaning “Fortress Island,” is one of the quieter and most picturesque of the Princes’ Islands, offering a peaceful retreat just a short ferry ride from Istanbul. Known for its literary heritage, lush pine forests, and charming streets lined with wooden mansions, the island has long attracted writers, artists, and those seeking inspiration in nature.
- Heybeliada Island: Heybeliada, meaning “Saddlebag Island” due to its unique shape, is the second-largest of the Princes’ Islands and a beloved destination for nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and those seeking a peaceful escape from Istanbul. With its lush pine forests, shaded walking paths, and charming atmosphere, Heybeliada offers a harmonious blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage.
- Büyükada, meaning “Big Island” in Turkish, is the largest and most famous of the Princes’ Islands, located just off the coast of Istanbul in the Sea of Marmara. Known for its serene atmosphere, historic charm, and natural beauty, Büyükada offers a peaceful retreat from the city's busy rhythm. The island is car-free, with transportation limited to bicycles and electric vehicles, making it a perfect place for leisurely strolls or scenic rides through pine-covered hills and along picturesque coastline roads. Enjoy free time to explore Büyükada independently.
- Istanbul: Meet your guide at the designated point on Büyükada for your return cruise to Istanbul. On the way back, you’ll have the option to visit a local leather shop. If preferred, you may skip this visit and part ways with the group at the port, making your own way back to your hotel. Otherwise, enjoy a convenient transfer back to your accommodation.
