Istanbul: Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia & opt. Basilica Cistern Tour

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.

Josh was amazing! He was so knowledgeable about the history and culture of Turkey. This is a trait that isn’t always given with tours, but also one of my favorite parts of tours. He was also very patient with my older parents and did a great job assisting in my Turkish carpet purchase!

Request Kaan as your tour guide.

This review is late due to travel but this was a FABULOUS tour with a FABULOUS guide. I did this tour on my last day in Istanbul and learned so much about the delicious food in Turkey. Kaan did a great job at teaching about history, values and culinary food customs. The tour was perfect from beginning to end. A few words of advice : SHOW UP HUNGRY. I only skipped one stop (due to an allergy) but every dish was delicious and fulfilling Thanks Kaan for such a great tour! Don’t leave Istanbul without booking this!!

Worth it.

The experience of flying in the air and witnessing Goreme from above was amazing. I wish there was a little more communication during booking around expectations for the morning of. There was a lot of waiting around for such an early pick up. We came to realize that our flight crew was waiting for the go ahead to fly before we departed to the launch place, however we did not know this in the moment and it left us with a feeling of “why did we leave so early if all we are doing is waiting”, Again, it would have helped us to understand what we were doing if it was presented in the welcome email.

A great day with a great guide!!

This was a great tour with an excellent guide that really made it a great day. It was a small tour which I really enjoyed that included lunch in a traditional Turkish restaurant. It was a great group of Aussies and it made a difference having a guide that really knew and understood the local area.

Went to a lifetime opportunity

Our tour guide was truly amazing. We enjoyed spending hours with her. She knew the history and the culture and the food. We learned so much and had the opportunity to taste so many amazing foods and sample amazing drinks. I had no idea what to expect but the tour by far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone going to Istanbul.

Istanbul: Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia & opt. Basilica Cistern Tour

Brian_C, May 2026

Wonderful tour, crowded sites

Our tour guide was awesome and shared so much great information. She navigated the crowds well, kept all participants together and got us to each site in a timely a manner as possible. I give her 5 stars. I believe her company just started using new communication boxes that I didn’t love. They hooked over your ear and held the little speaker close to your ear. Didn’t work great with my husbands hearing aides, and didn’t seem to work well With my glasses either. So, I didn’t love them, but made it work, and again, not the tour leaders fault. Also , crowds were tough. Long lines, even with the skip the line prebought tickets by the tour company. So, just be aware that the tour, which with no lines might take 2 hours, may take you as long as five. Again, not the leader’s fault- she kept a great attitude and navigated through it all as best she could. We were there on a Saturday at the beginning of high season (May 9). She noted the lines can be twice as long as we experienced- so just plan on it. The sites were amazing and not to be missed. You can obviously prebuy tickets and do these sites yourself, but you will miss so much of the history, insider knowledge of best photo spots etc and how to navigate through the crowds. Take the tour and enjoy.

Istanbul Top 3

These three activities, were ideal together. They give the top highlights and they’re close together so it’s easy to see all three within three hours. It was long enough to give us detail, but not too long so that we were getting restless. Our tour guide was excellent! We had booked this at the last minute and it turned out fantastic.
