Your experience aboard the Bosphorus Dinner Cruise

Sailing between continents in Istanbul

Embark on an atmospheric 3-hour evening cruise along Istanbul’s Bosphorus Strait where Europe meets Asia. The journey takes place on a comfortable, air-conditioned boat, allowing you panoramic views of the city’s illuminated skyline and notable monuments as you drift between two continents.

  • Board your cruise at the conveniently located Kabatas Port, near the majestic Dolmabahce Palace

  • Find your perfect seat to capture the sights and ambient performances offered throughout your trip

Discover Istanbul's historic landmarks from the water

As your evening unfolds, enjoy unobstructed views of Istanbul’s iconic sites:

  • Admire the grandeur of Dolmabahce Palace and the architecture of the Ortakoy Mosque

  • Pass by Ciragan Palace, Rumeli Fortress, Bosphorus Bridge and the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge

  • Witness the elegance of Beylerbeyi Palace and the enigmatic Maiden’s Tower standing guard by the sea

The cruise route provides an exclusive vantage point to observe Istanbul’s unique blend of architectural styles, exemplifying centuries of heritage and engineering achievement—fun fact: for some time in the 1980s, the Bosphorus Bridge was the fourth longest suspension bridge in the world.
