About this trip

An evening cruise on the Bosphorus, the strait that runs through the middle of Istanbul. You spend about four hours on board, three of them sailing.

The route passes Rumeli Fortress, the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge and Anadolu Fortress. On board there is a light dinner, live songs and music, shows and a Levantine ardah (folk dance) performance. The shows and their order can change with the boat’s program.

We pick you up at your hotel and bring you back after the cruise. The drive is extra time, not part of the four hours.
