Yacht cruise on the Bosphorus with a Kanlıca stop on the Asian side. Hotel pickup, snacks, Turkish coffee, and onboard Wi‑Fi.

“A wonderful and relaxing Bosphorus morning cruise! The views were stunning, the pace was calm, and the food was excellent—fresh fruit, bagel sandwiches, Turkish delights, and drinks made the experience feel extra special. The guide and crew were informative, funny, and incredibly engaging with everyone on board, including a toddler traveling with another family. The short stop on the Asia side of Istanbul was a highlight, especially getting to try some really good Turkish yogurt. We went as a family with two teenage boys, and they were fully engaged and enjoyed every part of the cruise. Highly recommend this experience for families or anyone wanting a laid-back and memorable way…”

2.5-hour Bosphorus luxury yacht cruise with guide, snacks, and a Kanlıca stop on the Asian side. Snap palaces and bridges.

“This was one of the most bizarre yet enjoyable trips we have ever done. It would be good in any conditions - the guide was knowledgeable, the boat is first-rate, the trip is a must-do - but a few flakes of snow turned into a full-on blizzard! This obviously hindered the view but the boat travels up the European side and down the Asian side closely enough that we could see everything described, On the plus side, the surreal nature of it made it a most magical and memorable experience. We chose to sit outside and cold as it was and snow-covered as we were, it made it all extremely…”

Every stop was brilliant, the gaps in between were fascinating as well. Very glad we booked this for our first day as it gave us such a good base for visiting the city and Turkey as a whole. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.”

7.Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Stopover on Asian Side

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 925 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $47

Cruise the Bosphorus on a luxury yacht, cross sights on both continents, and stop at Kanlıca to taste local yogurt.

“A wonderfully coordinated experience from start to finish. Everything ran seamlessly: from the meeting point to the cruise itself and the return. The guides arrived early to organize participants and check lists, and since we were a large group, we were divided between two yachts. The cruise was fantastic, with engaging live commentary filled with interesting insights. The onboard service was excellent, and the light snacks provided were delightful. The stopover was equally enjoyable, I grabbed some yogurt and browsed a few charming artisanal pop-up stalls. Overall, it was a memorable outing that I’d happily recommend.”

See two continents in one full day with Camlıca views, Eyüp Sultan, Beylerbeyi Palace, plus a Bosphorus cruise and included lunch.

“The itinerary is amazing as you get to see many highlights of Istanbul outside of the regular tourist area of Sultanahmet where the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia is located as the store skips that entire area. But that is where it ends based on my days experience. However, we had the worst guide in my opinion. I have been traveling for decades and I’ve used Viator over 10 years. Never have I taken a tour where the guide was so disappointing. It was a blistering cold, rainy, and windy day.(never take this tour under these weather conditions). He provided us no explanations, significance of the points of interest we…”
