Overview

Imagine stepping aboard a luxury yacht, ready to explore Istanbul’s Bosphorus at your own pace. Whether for a short escape or a full-day adventure, the choice is yours. For a 1-hour cruise, enjoy a panoramic journey along the European and Asian shores, passing Karaköy, Galataport, Beşiktaş, Maiden’s Tower, Dolmabahçe Palace, Ortaköy, and the Bosphorus Bridge. A perfect option for a quick yet unforgettable experience. With 2-3 hours, dive deeper into Istanbul’s rich history, sailing past Rumeli Fortress, Beylerbeyi Palace, Anadolu Fortress, and Küçüksu Pavilion, discovering hidden gems along the strait. A 4-7 hour cruise unveils the full Bosphorus, reaching Sarıyer, Tarabya, and Riva by the Black Sea, with stops for relaxation, swimming, or scenic photography. For the ultimate experience, a full-day, 8+ hour journey takes you to the Princes’ Islands, where you can explore Büyükada, Heybeliada, Burgazada, and Kınalıada, enjoy lunch by the sea, or take a dip in crystal-clear waters.
