Full description

Set sail on a cruise between Europe and Asia on Istanbul's Bosphorus Strait. See the wonders of both East and West from the water while accompanied by a multilingual guide. Stopover on the Asian side and explore Kanlica, a district that stands in defiance of time.

On board the yacht, hear stories of this mesmerizing city as you set out to pass sights on both continents, including Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, the Leander Tower, and Istanbul's most posh areas, Ortakoy and Bebek.

Pass under the two suspended Bosphorus bridges that connect Europe and Asia and Admire the thick walls of the medieval Rumeli Fortress. Snap photos of the city skyline and hear about the confluence of cultures that exists at this meeting point between Europe and Asia.

During this 2.5-Hours cruise, you'll be free to wander between decks to capture the best shots of Istanbul's attractions. Your guide will illustrate the history of what you see during the cruise; Bosphorus has a storied past and your guides know the fun facts you can't find in a tourist handbook.

The Bosphorus separating two continents has always been crucial to life in Istanbul. Once a prime channel to move fearsome armies through, it now serves more peaceful functions. Seeing this important trading route is a must-do for travelers.

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Istanbul. It was a very relaxing and casual atmosphere. The food and drink were exceptional. I could hear the guide and explanations clearly. I cannot say enough good things about this tour and would definitely repeat it if in Istanbul.

It was a beautiful day out so the views from the Bosphorus were great. I enjoyed the stop over on the Asia side, but the time given for the stop was a bit short. The coffee, tea and snacks offered was a nice touch. Thank you to the tour guide and team that made it an enjoyable tour.
