Full description

Climb aboard a pleasure boat for a luxurious cruise along the Bosphorus Strait, while dining from a 3-course menu of Turkish meze and local drinks. Sail past some of Istanbul's greatest monuments, while watching traditional entertainment along the way. Following a pick-up from your hotel, transfer to the yacht for the start of your journey. Get a welcome cocktail on deck as you begin to sail as far as the Black Sea. Cruise between Europe and Asia, passing under the Bosphorus Bridge and Fatih Sultan Mehmed Bridge. See the summer palaces of the Ottoman sultans, such as Dolmabahçe Palace, Çırağan Palace, and Beylerbeyi Palace. Admire the grand Ottoman fortifications of Rumeli Castle and Anatolian Castle.

Soak up some of Istanbul’s legendary nightlife as you pass famous nightclubs, such as Reina and Sortie. Marvel at the waterside mansions and villas that line the European and Asian coasts. As you feast on a meal of typical meze dishes and mains, watch live folk dances from different regions of Turkey. Be seduced by the sensual moves of a belly dancer, and relax to international music by the on-board DJ. Back on dry land, enjoy a free shuttle transfer back to your hotel.

We had an outstanding evening. Every item was in point. The incredible driver who was on time and helped my mum to the bus. He navigated the tight roads and traffic with ease and grace. The boat was really lovely. The food delicious. Be ware of the photographer who prints and then sells many photos of posing. We were determined not to buy them all and he was fine. The dancing is fun. The lights are spectacular along the river and on the bridges. We were safely delivered back to our hotel full of happiness. This is an absolute must should you be visiting Istanbul

It was a hard March. But the Bosphorus outweighs ANY weather. Staff and crew are always great, as are the dance troop. just didn't like being at the back(literally) of the boat, when I booked 3 months ahead. asking what hotel we were staying at should have given THAT away.

Definitely worth for the price. A very pleasant experience. I was thinking probably the dinner would not be enough but it was actually on top! Don’t it anything beforehand. Starter, main dish, desserts and unlimited drinks included. Food is delicious, show is interesting. A mixed culture show. I can’t stress enough how satisfied I’m. The driver arrived actually earlier than agreed time, I had to make him wait. He was a nice and polite guy. Even the ride was included. This is definitely worth of trying experience.
