    Wonderful tour. The island was lovely. Very peaceful and relaxing. I highly recommend going there if you have a extra day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Nothing special. It included a ride with ordinary ferry (aprox 2 hours), a ride with local electric bus not turist dedicated (aprox 15-20 min) around the island and an average lunch at a restaurant on the island. Mainly the island consist of summer/holiday houses and a small commercial area (restaurants, coffee shops, other shops). Out of season there is not much to do on the island except for sipping a coffee in one of the terraces.

    – The island itself is pretty with an antique look especially with the whole “no private cars thing”
    – the history that was shared during the tour barely goes beyond what can be found on the 2 paragraph wikipedia page.
    – the tour guide did not provide any information during the tour of the island on the electric carts, but rather gave it all in one go at the end near the central clock tour.
    – we felt that the island had a richer story to tell through its churches, mosques and buildings that was not delivered.
    – The worst offense was the end of the tour where instead of the drop off at hotel, we were told to await a “surprise”. The surprise was actually a thinly veiled advertisement to a jewelry/leather shop. It was a waste of our time and a complete disrespect to the profession of tour guides in Turkey.

    Very pleasant day out. My only complaint was the trip to a leather outlet in Istanbul, which was not advertised and i would rather have missed. Waste of time and a hard sell

    Although the trip was well planned I think it is better to get a ferry by your own and explore the island. The information shared by the guide is freely available on Google

    The islands were beautiful but the tour was nothing special. The leather show at the end and the way they transported us back to taksim square was offensive. Not recommend this tour. They charge you for drinks, for snacks after paying for the tour and the only thing they give you is the lunch .
    The leather show was absolutely meaningless!!
    On the way back from the harbor , in the middle of town they picked up other tourist and we could hardly sit comfortable in the bus ! Disrespectful!

    Très bon moment, les deux îles visitées étaient magnifiques, le transport a l’heure à l’hôtel, le repas très correct pour cette croisière, seul bémol au retour lors de notre transport visite imposée d’une fabrique et vente de vêtements en cuir, nous nous sommes senti pris en otage.

    I usually don’t write bad reviews, and I wasn’t going to write about this tour, until the waiter started a scandal. During lunch I wanted to sit next to my fiancee (who wouldn’t, right?) We were one of the first ones to arrive, so the room was almost empty. We chose the empty table and took a sit, when the waiter came up and started screaming, that we MUST sit opposite to each other, because he has 80 other guests. I don’t understand what difference does it make, but he started this weird argument with me, even the other guests were shocked.
    ‘The guided tour’ means that you will have a person saying very generic information (reading Wikipedia) during your boat ride and then get thrown on the island, where you have X minutes to roam around. When I asked the guide about how to get to Trotsky house on the biggest island, the answer was ‘Google it’.
    Finishing up with some really weird ‘surprise’ fashion show in the end (probably sponsored), which looked a lot like scam shops by Egyptian Great Pyramids.
    The last are the pick-up and drop-off times, we were staying in a couch for the longest time possible. In the end, we decided to walk home on foot, rather than waiting at the bus for another half an hour.
