Sunset Yacht Trip along the Bosphorus River with Apéritif

About the Activity

What to Expect

Discover the charm of Istanbul with our sunset yacht trip along the Bosphorus River with apéritif included.

Board our 20-meter luxury yacht and start your adventure by gliding past the magnificent Dolmabahce Palace and Dolmabahce Mosque. This former Ottoman palace is known for its grandiose architecture and lush gardens. As we continue, you will see the splendid Ciragan Palace, another royal residence that now serves as a luxurious hotel. The yacht is equipped with an audio guide app in 6 languages, allowing you to learn interesting facts about each landmark as we pass by.

One of the most striking sights is the Bosphorus Bridge, a marvel of engineering that connects Europe and Asia. We will then pass the Beylerbeyi Palace, a summer residence for Ottoman sultans, known for its beautiful design and historical significance. Next, we will approach the iconic Maiden's Tower, steeped in legend and offering picturesque views of the city. The tour concludes with a view of the Golden Horn, a natural harbour that has played a crucial role in the history of Istanbul. This tour is ideal for those looking to experience Istanbul's historical landmarks in a relaxing, luxurious setting.
