Bosphorus Sunset Cruise with Drinks and Canapés

Begin your sunset cruise at Kabataş Pier aboard a luxury yacht and sail toward the Second Bosphorus Bridge along the European side of the Bosphorus Strait. Enjoy a selection of drinks and snacks as you take in panoramic views and photograph landmarks such as Dolmabahçe Palace, Ortaköy Mosque, and the Rumeli Fortress, along with other notable sites along the shoreline.

After reaching the bridge, the yacht continues from the opposite direction toward the Asian shore. View the traditional wooden houses and learn about the highlights of the Bosphorus from your knowledgeable guide. The cruise then approaches the Maiden’s Tower, an iconic spot in the Marmara Sea, offering a prime vantage point for capturing the glowing colors of sunset.

As you glide between continents, enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and commentary that brings the region’s history to life. Throughout the journey, there are ample opportunities to photograph the scenic coastline and historic monuments of Istanbul.

The tour concludes back at Kabataş Pier, with final views of the old city and one last chance to capture the evening light over the Bosphorus.
