Nothing fancy, but excellent value. First class customer service. - Low key, not in your face and excellent value for money! A perfect treat to get out of the heat and fumes of the city for a day. We would strongly recommend this excursion.

By the Sea of Marmara!!! - It's very peaceful to go on the common Ferry! You pay 160 Turkish Lira to get there and back! It's almost two hours on the ferry across the Sea of Marmara!!! Beautiful!!! The ferry is clean, has several times, both to go and to return! She stops at a smaller island, Helbelyada, and then goes to the larger island BÜYÜKADA. I stayed in BÜYÜKADA for a few hours, there are lots of restaurants, little shops, I had lunch there! I paid 800 Turkish liras for an excellent lunch, with shrimp, rice, artichokes and a cold Ephesus beer!

Great day out. - Was a good day out. Although it was not necessary to stop at the first island as not much to see. I guess lunch had to be prepared during this time and it was good to get off the boat. The second island was much bigger and had some beautiful architecture.

Awful experience - Collected from hoyel 0815 driven 1000 meters waited for 20 minutes another 100 meters and waited for over 30 minutes. Each time no reason given so assumed was to collect more tourists. Get to boat wait for over an hour to depart. On board crew were very dis organised only intetested in selling items to make more. Two islands visted with a bland meal served between islands. No tour of the larger island as advertised. The few announcements made on board boat could not hear or understand. On arrival back in Istanbul tried to sell this time clothes by way of a fashion show. By this time had enough and walked back to hotel. Awful experience and formal compliant on its way to viator.
