Two hours on a Bosphorus mega yacht with an audio guide, unlimited drinks, and optional dinner, ideal for classic sunset views.

“The overall cruise experience was awesome, travelled about an hour each way, got to see a different view of the major buildings, voice over (english) would speak a little about each building as we got close to it. Free tea and coffee on the boat, food was offered too but I didnt eat anything. I saw other people have drinks too. There was seating inside and outside, 3 levels for the outside and 2 for the inside with good views wherever you were seated. It was a good experience, if you are in Istanbul for a short time or want to get your bearings.”

Suluada Island boat trip from Antalya with hotel pickup, swims in the Turkish Maldives, and lunch on board. Clear water, easy day.

“We had an amazing day on the Deluxe Osman Baba! From Lara, the drive to the harbour was quick and easy (the return took a bit longer with traffic, but no big deal). Our driver Dogan was fantastic – friendly, punctual, and helpful. The boat itself was spacious with super comfortable beds; if you’re a sun lover, head to the upper deck left side for the best sunshine. The sea was absolutely stunning – crystal clear and exactly as pictured (no filter needed!). Bring snorkelling gear to make the most of it. Lunch was lovely, with a choice of fish or breaded chicken – both fresh and tasty. Some reviews…”

Bosphorus Yacht Cruise Experience: Visit the Asian Side

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,251 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $60.46

Guided Bosphorus yacht cruise to the Asian side, with hotel pickup, Turkish snacks, and a Kanlıca yogurt stop in about 2.5 hours.

“This was a lovely boat and friendly crew. The tour guide was funny and easy to listen to. The sites were interesting. There were lots of things to eat and drink including nuts, cheese sandwiches with fresh fruit, water, Turkish tea and Turkish coffee. Our only complaint was that the yogurt they recommended we try on the Asia side was incredibly overpriced and they didn’t tell you until it was too late. There are other yogurt shops near the boat and in the city you could go to. Each yogurt was approximately $5 USD.”
