A Bosphorus Cruise for Couples: Romantic Options in Istanbul

Sunset with wine

The sunset cruise is timed for the hour when the light turns warm and the city lights begin to come on. With the wine package each adult guest has two glasses of wine, with snacks, fruit and live English commentary. It is a shared yacht, so it is social rather than private, but it is the best light of the day for photographs of the two of you.

The cruise ends at 19:00, which leaves time for dinner in Karaköy or Beyoğlu afterwards. In winter it gets dark earlier, so the time can change; we confirm the exact time with your reservation.

A private yacht for two

If you want the boat to yourselves, rent a private yacht. You choose the date and a time range of at least two hours, and we send you the available yachts with their departure point and price. The price is for the whole yacht, from €220. Many couples choose the sunset hour or the evening.

Planning a proposal or an anniversary? Tell us what you have in mind, such as flowers, a decorated table or a photographer, and we tell you what can be arranged and what it costs.

The dinner cruise, if you want a lively night

The night cruise is an evening out with dinner, three hours of dance shows and a live DJ, with hotel pickup and drop-off. It is fun and easy, but it is not a quiet dinner for two: you share the boat with other guests and the evening is built around the shows. Alcoholic drinks are not included.
