Bozcaada - Wind D. - Bozcaada Castle - Grape Harvest Events
After our overnight journey, we arrive in Çanakkale. For breakfast, we enjoy our meal at a place with a view of the Çanakkale Strait, featuring warm servings and stocked with local and natural products. We head to Geyikli ferry pier to go to Bozcaada. While waiting for the Bozcaada ferry, we enjoy tea and coffee by the seaside. Since bus access to the island is not possible, we will cross on foot. After taking the items you need to have with you for swimming in a small handbag, we board the ferry and, after a half-hour journey, arrive in Bozcaada. As we approach Bozcaada, you can take photos of Bozcaada Castle on the ferry, which draws our attention with its imposing appearance. Accompanied by our guide, we begin walking through Bozcaada’s charming streets. Guests who wish may participate in the Grape Harvest Events, which are regularly organized every year by the municipality, within the allotted time. We get to know the local cookies by tasting them at Çiçek Pastry Shop, the island’s famous pastry shop. After our tours in the island’s Turkish and Greek neighborhoods, we give free time for the rest of the day. During this free time, guests who wish may visit the Talay, Ataol, Yunatçılar, and Corvus Wine Factories, where the island’s signature wines are produced, and do some shopping. Guests who wish may also go to the Windmills, take wonderful photos, and enjoy the view. (Since bus access to the island is not available, we will leave the island by ferry for the beaches and wind collection, then board our bus waiting for us at Geyikli pier and head to our hotel.
Note: The ferry crossing fee to Bozcaada is included in the tour price. Ayazma beach bay can be reached by minibus (extra). Swimming breaks will begin as of June. To taste Ezine Cheese, local producers may be visited on the way back from Bozcaada to the hotel, and guests who wish may shop.

Cunda Island - Devil’s Feast - Sarımsaklı Beach
On the last day of our tour, we first arrive at Cunda Island, a historic Greek settlement and a charming town, by passing through Ayvalık. The island is famous for its turquoise waters and whitewashed stone houses. Accompanied by our guide, we visit tourist attractions such as Taksikiyaris Church (Rahmi Koç Museum) and the Sundial. Afterwards, free time will be given; you can stroll through the souvenir bazaars opened by the local people. On this last-day tour, we take our valued guests to Sarımsaklı Beach so that you can experience one of the Aegean's most beautiful and clean waters. During our free time here, we will take a swimming break. After that, we head to Şeytan Sofrası, one of the most famous hills of Cunda Island. When you climb Şeytan Sofrası, you will see a footprint into which visitors throw coins while making a wish. According to belief, this footprint belongs to the Devil, and it is said that the print of the other foot is on the opposite hill. However, all of this is a legend. After descending from Şeytan Sofrası and watching the sunset, we end our tour and set off for Istanbul. We bid farewell to our valued guests by dropping them off at the departure points where we picked them up on the first day, and look forward to seeing you on another itctur.com organization.
