Princes' Islands, Buyukada
(Big Island), which served as a place of exile
for disgraced princes in days gone by. Today it
is a quiet sea front town and summer holiday escape
from the city. Leaving the Golden Horn you will
round Sarayburnu (Seraglio Point), the headland
on which the domes and minarets of Topkapi Palace,
Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque can be seen. Upon
arrival to the island, you will see the lavish
Ottoman mansions and other beautiful Victorian
summer villas around the island by horse-drawn
carriage tour - one of the islands only means of
transport, for motor-vehicles are strictly prohibited.
There are colorful fruit trees, beautiful gardens, wooded areas and exotic
flowers to be seen everywhere. Afterwards, you can enjoy a delicious
lunch in a cozy sea-side fish restaurant and relax looking back at the
domes and minarets among skyscrapers of modern Istanbul's skyline.
This a perfect day for relaxing and enjoying one of Istanbul's residents'
favorite summer retreats. Return by ferry and drop off to hotel or port.
