Beskrivning
Leave the city noise behind on a guided day trip to Heybeliada and Büyükada. Travel by ferry, tour the islands by electric vehicle and sit down for lunch by the sea.
Your day begins with a pickup from your hotel in central Istanbul, followed by a short coach ride to the pier. From there, a ferry carries you across the Sea of Marmara while the city skyline slowly fades behind you.
The first stop is Heybeliada, the quieter of the two islands. Walk with your guide past pine-covered slopes, old wooden houses and small squares, and hear how the islands once served as a retreat for monks, exiled nobles and wealthy Istanbul families.
Continue to Büyükada, the largest island of the archipelago. Ride around the island by electric vehicle to see its grand Ottoman-era mansions and viewpoints, then stop at a local restaurant for lunch, with a choice of seafood, kebab or a vegetarian dish.
After lunch, enjoy free time to wander the streets, find a café on the hill or, in summer, go for a swim. In the late afternoon, take the ferry back to Istanbul, make a short shopping stop and return to your hotel by coach.
