Bosphorus Yacht Tours
Not the ferry line but your own route: past the mansions, under both bridges, in the shadow of the fortresses. A Bosphorus tour that belongs to you.
What does a private Bosphorus tour include?
Our classic route covers both shores: the Ortaköy and Kuruçeşme waterfront, Bebek bay, the Rumeli and Anadolu fortresses, the Kandilli hills and both bridges from below. Tours last at least 2 hours and the route bends entirely to your wishes. Tea, coffee and a welcome treat are on us, breakfast or dinner can be added.
The sunset cruise: the Bosphorus at its best
When the late light hits the mansion windows, the Bosphorus becomes another place entirely. Sunset cruises usually leave at 18:00 or 19:00 so you are on deck as the sun drops behind the European side. On the way back the bridges light up and the city says goodbye with its night skyline. This is the cruise with the most photographs.
The route is yours
Want a photo stop by a particular pier, a pass by Maiden's Tower, or an anchor break in Bebek bay with tea against the view? Our captain talks the route through with you before departure and shapes the best plan around that day's wind and sea traffic.
Who is it for?
Families hosting guests in Istanbul, couples celebrating anniversaries, teams that need a breather and anyone who wants to see the city from the water. English speaking crew can join for your international guests.
