First of all, we are collecting all of our guests from their hotels. After the pick-ups, we drove to Kabatas Pier to take the ferry to the Prince’s Islands. Before we get on the ferry, our guide gives some important guidelines to our guests about the ferry ride. Starting from the Bosphorus, we are heading to Buyukada (which is the biggest one of the Prince Islands) by enjoying the breathtaking views of the old buildings along the Bosphorus the historical peninsula, and the picturesque nature of the city of Istanbul. After approximately 1,5 hours ferry ride, we reach Buyukada. As we are getting close to Buyukada, our guests will be warned by the guide to get ready and not to forget any personal belongings on the ferry. After we get off the ferry, our guide will collect the group and give them some general and historical information about the Prince’s Islands. After being informed about the islands, the group will be taken to eco-friendly mini-electric buses to have a sightseeing tour around the island. The tour with the electric car takes about 20-25 minutes and during the tour, our guests will have the chance to enjoy the fresh air and the peaceful atmosphere of the island. When we are done with the electric cars, we continue to the restaurant for lunch. In the restaurant, our guests will have the opportunity to enjoy many varieties of delicious Turkish cuisine, such as Adana Kebab, Chicken Shish, fresh Seafood, and some Vegetarian options. After the lunch, our group will have free time to explore the island.
