    Everything was dirty and damaged, choose another tour operator.

    The boat, the bus when they pick you up. Everything has years of history. Super dirty and damaged. There were other tour operators that looked better.

    No added value

    Nice boat trip, but nothing more. We did not find any particular interests on the two islands; the meal was good. The cruise on the Bosphorus is great. We even saw dolphins It's worth doing if we have time, but it's not the must-do in Istanbul

    Average tour on a dirty boat.

    The islands themselves were interesting, scenic and worth a visit. The tour boat was really dirty, especially the toilets, they were filthy, the lunch was very ordinary food, squashed into the boat. Would be better to have lunch at one of the lovely restaurants on the island. There was little to no information about the islands offered. I would not recommend this tour or this vessel. For us it was Sub standard.

    Magical islands in Istanbul

    Experience was good, princess islands are really places need to visit during Istanbul holidays. Super cozy town and have a special sharm of the vintage time mixed with the magic of the natur and sea. This time weather was little cold specially 2hours by the boat . Need to wear good clothes if you want enjoy the view of the city from the terrace of the ship . I think summer time absolutely need visit again. Highly recommended

You’re absolutely right—the islands have a special magic, and the view from the boat is truly unforgettable. Thank you as well for the helpful tip about dressing warmly during the colder weather. We agree that summer is an ideal time to visit again and fully enjoy everything the islands have to offer. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back on another tour very soon! 😊

    Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.

    How much does Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Istanbul usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Istanbul is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Istanbul can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Istanbul and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Princess's Islands Tour from Istanbul start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Istanbul within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Istanbul?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Istanbul experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Istanbul 1, 2 or 3-Day Private Guided Istanbul Tour, Istanbul Luxury Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Asian Side Stop, ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Istanbul?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Istanbul?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
