Very nice and perfect for the right people

If you are looking for a little break from the city and are worried about getting to the ferry to get to the Island(they pick you up in a bus), want to learn a bit about the islands, and have lunch set up for you, this is a great option! The guide was very nice and made sure everyone was accounted for and got to where they needed to. The Island itself is very cute, with street food, sit-down restaurants, cute walks, and shopping available.
However, if you are young and want to explore more on your own and know how to operate the public transit systems(ferry picks up from two locations in the city), then you don't need a tour guide.

I wish we could get more information on the boat as well as when we were driving around on the island. The lunch was very good.

Coming to The tour, it's a basic tour to the islands. Enjoyed the ferry trip though a bit long but can't do much about it. On reaching the island there was electric car ride where the driver didn't bother to explain or inform us about any of The buildings. She just drove about for 20 mins and brought us to drop off. Followed by lunch which was basic and usual. Guide then gave us 2 hours to explore the island, we saw wooden buildings and local Markets. It's a pollution free island. We were then driven back to Istanbul port. Shown a fashion show for leather products. And finally back to our hotels.
Overall decent experience but if not too Keen on a ferry ride or simply roaming on island with nothing great or over the top to look out for, you can think of giving it a skip.
