Istanbul Bosphorus Sunset Cruise on Yacht with Live Guide

The sunset cruise departs from Kabatas Pier aboard a well-appointed luxury yacht, sailing along the European side of the Bosphorus Strait up to the second bridge. As you enjoy drinks and light snacks, take in panoramic views of Dolmabahçe Palace, Ortaköy Mosque, and Rumeli Fortress, along with other notable local landmarks—offering excellent photo opportunities throughout the journey.

After reaching the second bridge, the yacht turns and returns along the Asian shoreline.

The route then brings you to the Maiden’s Tower, situated at the entrance of the Marmara Sea, where the sunset light creates especially striking photographic moments.

This cruise is designed for comfort and relaxation, with attentive onboard service to help you unwind after a day of sightseeing. Throughout the trip, your knowledgeable guide offers engaging historical context, encouraging you to have your camera ready for the many picturesque views along the way.

The experience concludes back at Kabatas Pier, with final photo opportunities of the old city skyline as dusk settles—a fitting end to an evening on the water.
