Many travel agencies in Istanbul offer island tours, but we are truly different! Most tours claim to visit 2 or 3 islands just to make the itinerary look attractive, but these extra stops are a waste of time and leave guests feeling like they’ve just taken a long boat ride without guide and nothing special to do. The only island truly worth visiting is Büyükada, and that’s exactly where we focus. With us, you won’t waste time on unnecessary stops—instead, you’ll enjoy real time on the island, exploring its beauty and atmosphere the right way. Büyükada is the crown jewel of the Princes’ Islands, famous for its peaceful car-free streets, historic Ottoman mansions, pine-covered hills, and stunning sea views. While many travelers who take standard tours come back saying there’s nothing to do on the islands, our guests say the opposite—because we take the experience one step further with a guided electric vehicle tour that brings the island’s history, culture, and hidden corners to life.

Great one day tour.

Violet was a joy the entire tour as she truly loves Paris and its rich history. And she has GREAT side stories and information since she’s got her masters degree in Art History! I can’t say enough great things about Violet so I hope you get to tour with her. Also, be prepared to walk A LOT!

Beautiful Tour with Anthony

We had a fantastic experience with Anthony. He was a perfect guide who spoke English very well. Since this was our first time in Paris, he gave us plenty of recommendations from places to eat to things we had to go see during our time here. The tour itself was very enjoyable and moving. We were very happy it is opened back up after restoration. I couldn’t recommend this tour more!

Great cruise!

The whole experience was great, a private table, good food, good entertainment, awesome service from Hasan, our server. My husband got sick motion (unfortunately) but Hasan gave him a pill and eventually he felt better. If you get sick motion I recommend taking something before, many people feeling sick. Otherwise a great experience!

Paris Gourmet Dinner Seine River Cruise with Singer and DJ Set

Ylvin_K, Jan 2026

Amazing experience

The boat is beautiful, the staff is very friendly, the food was very good, the atmosphere is unforgettable. My favorite thing was dancing with my wife. This dinner cruise is definitely for all ages. The only thing you will find challenging will be getting to the dock, but that was probably because I am from Paris. Other than that you have a blast of fun

Paris Seine River Champagne Tasting Cruise

Sheila_C, Jan 2026

Champagne lights

My husband and I took a quick trip to Paris to see some sights we had missed on an earlier trip - notably the Eiffel Tower at night! What a beautiful way to see it, all while tasting 3 champagnes and learning about their production. Bastion was our guide and he did a wonderful job blending the discussion of champagne with the sights along the river. The cruise lasted about 1.5h and was worth the price. Because we were there in January, it was dark and the sights were lighted the entire cruise. C’est magnifique!

Istanbul Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern with Tickets

KeriKae_A, Jan 2026

Highly recommend

Excellent tour! Kubra was an incredible guide. She's deeply knowledgeable about the sites, history, and culture, of course, but she's also a wonderful storyteller! If you're newer to walking tours, it's a lot of walking -- or if you landed in Istanbul the morning of your tour! I was deeply tired and in a bit of pain after a long flight and no sleep, so I almost left the tour early to rest. Kubra told me the last stop was one of her favorites and said she'd help me exit quickly if I wanted to take a peek. I'm so glad she encouraged me to stay -- it was such a beautiful and magical place! Don't hesitate to ask your guide questions. Ladies, for the Blue Mosque and Haggia Sophia, you will need a scarf to cover your head. Be prepared to take off your shoes at the Blue Mosque (socks encouraged!).
