Büyükada Island Discovery and Waterfront Lunch

  • Enjoy cool breezes and charming sights along the way to Büyükada, the largest island in the chain. Famous for its mild climate, lush vegetation, and ornate Ottoman houses, the island remains unspoiled by traffic. There are carriages, called Hybrid Motor Phaetons, which we will use to tour the island and its beautiful scenery, studded with elegant mansions draped with purple bougainvillaea, reminiscent of a more leisured and graceful era.
  • We will enjoy lunch at one of the best among the many excellent fresh fish restaurants lining the waterfront, gazing across the Asian shore of Istanbul, so close - though it feels worlds away.
