Escape the city on a full-day boat trip to the Princes' Islands. Sail across the Marmara Sea to Büyükada and a second island, then wander past timber mansions at your own pace.
Full description
This nine-hour excursion takes a boat from Istanbul across the Marmara Sea to Büyükada and either Heybeliada or Kınalıada. A guide explains island history aboard, and on land you are free to walk among the Ottoman-era timber mansions, rent transport at your own expense or simply sit near the water.
Lunch arrangements vary by season, and a shopping visit may follow. Reviewers describe a clean, spacious boat, clear commentary and a peaceful, well-organised break from the city.
