Full description

Guests meet their guide and walk together to the pier for a two-hour voyage covering the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn. The route shows waterfront palaces, Ortaköy Mosque, Rumeli Fortress, the bridges and the towers of the historic centre, with an English-speaking guide explaining what passes by.

Indoor and outdoor decks give a choice of seating, and the later departures aim for changing colours over the skyline. The tour does not run on Tuesdays, and the meeting kiosk is worth confirming in advance.
