1-day Private Bosphorus Yacht Cruise Istanbul

From $300 USD per person · 1 Day

Public Bosphorus boats give you a loudspeaker and 400 strangers. This is a private charter: your group alone on a well-kept motor yacht, a licensed guide on board and a route you can change mid-cruise.

You sail past Dolmabahce Palace, Ortakoy Mosque, the Bosphorus Bridge, the Rumeli and Anadolu fortresses, Beylerbeyi Palace and the old wooden yali mansions, with a stop for tea on the Asian shore or at Kucuksu if you want to step ashore. Sunset departures are the most requested slot and should be booked early.

Comfort tier: $480 per person per day, based on two travellers sharing; the charter runs 2–4 hours and can be extended to a full day along the upper Bosphorus and the Black Sea mouth.
