Your Princes’ Islands Experience

As you approach the Princes’ Islands, enjoy panoramic views of Istanbul’s coastline and landmarks, including Topkapı Palace, Maiden’s Tower and Üsküdar.

Upon arrival at Büyükada, discover the island’s unique atmosphere on a relaxing small island tour. With motor traffic restricted, Büyükada offers a refreshing change from the busy pace of Istanbul.

After your island tour, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local fish restaurant.

You will then have free time to enjoy Büyükada at your own pace. Take a leisurely walk, explore the historic streets, enjoy the sea views or rent a bicycle and discover more of the island independently.

Discover the Timeless Beauty of Büyükada

Büyükada combines natural beauty, history and elegant island architecture. Its historic mansions and peaceful surroundings reflect the multicultural heritage of Istanbul and the island’s long history as a retreat for Ottoman-era royalty and Istanbul’s affluent communities.

Among the island’s notable landmarks are Ayia Yorgi Church and Monastery, Ayios Dimitrios Church, Hamidiye Mosque and the historic wooden buildings that give Büyükada its distinctive character.

The Princes’ Islands

The Princes’ Islands form the Adalar district of Istanbul and consist of four main islands:

Together with several smaller islands, they create a unique maritime destination just outside Istanbul.
