Sail between two continents past imperial palaces and Ottoman skylines.
Overview
The Bosphorus strait divides Istanbul between Europe and Asia — and a boat cruise is the most atmospheric way to appreciate the city's extraordinary geography. Dolmabahçe Palace, Rumeli Fortress, the Beylerbeyi Palace, and the suspension bridges spanning two continents pass in a panorama.
Highlights
Sail past the Ottoman imperial palace's 600-metre waterfront façade.
See Europe and Asia simultaneously from the middle of the Bosphorus.
Itinerary
Embark at Eminönü or Kabataş, 2-hour full Bosphorus cruise, return or alight on Asian side.
