Istanbul Bosphorus Sunset Cruise by Luxury Yacht
Overview
Sail on board an elegant yacht that adds a touch of luxury to the fun. Cruise over the Bosphorus Strait to gaze out over the sprawling urban landscapes of the city, as you watch the sunset over the old city, Sultanahmet.
Taking a small-group cruise, this is the most stylish and unique way to discover the magic of Istanbul Bosphorus Strait with its breathtaking views.
Watch the sun set into the Bosphorus Strait on an evening cruise, in a double-decker luxury yacht that makes for a smoother, more comfortable ride. The departure time is tailored to the sunset so you'll see both European and Asian coasts at their most scenic, as you pass sea-side villas, palaces, castles, and sailing ships that come out to catch the evening light. Listen to the interesting stories narrated by our professional tour guide and simply enjoy views of Istanbul at sunset, a totally magical ride all around the Bosphorus combining daytime, sunset time, and nighttime in one cruise.
