You will be taken to the boat dock in Sultanahmet, the central meeting place, to begin your Bosphorus cruise.

Istanbul is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and the only one built on two continents because of the Bosphorus Strait, which connects the Sea of Marmara to the Black Sea and separates Europe and Asia. You will have the rare opportunity to see the city from both sides on the cruise.

As you take in sights like Dolmabahce Palace, Beylerbeyi Palace, Ciragan Palace, and Rumeli Fortress, as well as the ancient wooden villas, bridges, and maritime landscapes, your guide will provide commentary and answer questions during this cruise. Return to where you first met after the Bosphorus cruise.

We had a beautiful boat tour on the Bosporus. The transport to the dock and back worked well. The boat was very nice and not too crowded. The explanations and information in English well understood. A successful trip, highly recommended.

We decided to do this trip based on the fact we wanted to do a boat tour of Istanbul and were too late book any of the morning trips. This was convenient as it started at 14:30, was two hours long and we had a great tour guide despite the windy weather. So it's worth doing if your tight for time and money. Only trouble was locating the meeting point which happen to be a travel tours shop by the tram station at Old town.

We were surprised to have to go to the center of Istanbul to the meeting point, but the rest including the transfer by bus to the departure pier went well, without problems. The cruise, otherwise, was entertaining although we missed a guide in Spanish
