Easy to use
A relaxing 2-hour cruise along the Bosphorus is the perfect way to take in Istanbul’s many magnificent palaces, castles, mosques and bridges, all while beating the city traffic! Start off by meeting your expert English-speaking guide walking down to the pier to begin your tour. Float along the Bosphorous waterway and get superb views of the city including the Dolmabahce Palace, the Topkapi Palace, and the stunning 15th-century Rumeli Fortress. Take photographs at the Golden Horn, the freshwater estuary that separates the old and new parts of the city. Your guide will tell you interesting tidbits about the history and culture of Istanbul as you pass by these sights.
