it's a journey through one of Turkey’s most politically significant and emotionally powerful places, made entirely private and stress-free just for you.
Unlike standard group tours, you'll enjoy full VIP treatment from start to finish:
Private luxury vehicle pickup from your hotel
Exclusive sea taxi ride across the Bosphorus — no ferries or crowds
A peaceful overnight stay on an island rarely experienced by most travelers
The freedom to explore the island's historic landmarks at your own pace
You'll walk through the same courtrooms where Turkey's turning-point political trials took place in the 1960s, now preserved as powerful museums. You’ll also enjoy stunning sea views, nature trails, and the serenity of being away from the city noise — all with the comfort of private transfers, no rush, no waiting.
This is perfect for couples, history lovers, or travelers seeking a unique, meaningful experience that goes beyond typical tourist routes.
