Itinerary
Dolmabahçe Palace is a palace-museum located in İstanbul. The palace was built in the 19th century during the period of Sultan Abdulmecid. After the foundation of Republic, it was used as a Presidential Residence until 1949. The palace was open to diplomatic meetings until 1984 when it became a museum.
Seen from the Bosphorus cruise, the Bosphorus coastline on the European side resembles a string of villages, each with their own individual character and attractions, and indeed that’s just what it was. Located between down-to-earth Beşiktaş and chichi Kuruçeşme, Ortakoy does what its name suggests and positions itself somewhere in the middle (orta köy means ‘middle village’ in Turkish).
The Bosphorus Bridge is one of two bridges that spans the Bosphorus Strait, connecting the European and Asian sides of Istanbul. It stretches from Ortakoy on the European side to Beylerbeyi on the Asian side and is sometimes referred to as the First Bosphorus Bridge.
At the time when ’Hallai’, where the oldest known name of the Baby, whose history goes back to pre-Christian period, is sometimes written in different sources (Challae, Chilai, Khile) and gelen Skallia gelen on the piers, is right there.
Get more out of your time in Istanbul by going on a sunset evening cruise on the Bosphorus strait.
Rumeli Castle (Rumeli Hisarı) is an Ottoman fortress dating to 1452. It was built by Ottoman sultan Mehmed II (Mehmed the Conqueror) in preparation of the conquest of Constantinople. The castle is situated on the shore of the Bosphorus Strait at its narrowest point with approximately 660 meters.
Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge is a suspension bridge between Kavacık and Hisarüstü in Istanbul, connecting Asia and Europe for the second time after the Bosphorus Bridge.
Kanlica is a famous district of Beykoz district of Istanbul. It is located between Anadoluhisarı and Çubuklu. It is on the northern side of the foot of the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge on the Anatolian side.
The Fortress of Rumeli Fortress, located on the European shore of the Bosphorus and in the northernmost district of Istanbul, is a striking monument.
The palace was commissioned by Sultan Abd-ul-Mejid I (1823–1861), and designed by the architectsGarabet Amira Balyan and his son Nigoğayos Balyan in the neo-baroque style. Completed in 1857, the structure took the place of a two storey timber palace built during the reign of Mahmud I (1696–1754) by his Grand Vizier Divittar Mehmed Pasha, then successively used by Selim III (1761–1808) and Mahmud II (1785–1839).
Described by some as a miniature Dolmabahce Palace but without the crowds, the Beylerbeyi Sarayı (Beylerbeyi Palace) was commissioned by Sultan Abdülaziz to act as an imperial summer residence. With 24 rooms, 6 halls, and a hamam, it would have been quite the summer home, and was also used to entertain visiting dignitaries.
t literally means "Maiden's Tower" in Turkish. The name comes from a legend: the Byzantine emperor heard a prophecy telling him that his beloved daughter would die at the age of 18 by a snake. So he decided to put her in this tower built on a rock on the Bosphorus isolated from the land thus no snake could kill her.
The Romanesque style tower was built as Christea Turris (Tower of Christ) in 1348 during an expansion of the Genoese colony in Constantinople. Galata Tower was the tallest building in Istanbul at 219.5 ft (66.9 m) when it was built in 1348.

It was all perfect....pick up and drop off in hotel well, Bosphorus view is wonderful, dinner well, amazing artists , friendly waiters....tanks for all
It was an amazing experience. The view between Europe and Asia it’s amazing. The food selection was great Please visit the cruise trip.
It was a well organized cruise. Dinner was ok . What we liked most was the entertainment. The dancers were amazing and we were shown a range of traditional dances and music. Afterwards all us guests joined in the dancing so it was like one big party. We did get a chance to go up on the deck to take pictures. Staff was very helpful. A bus came and picked us up and dropped us off at our location.
The atmosphere to the entertainment was really good and enjoyable, I would say the only downside to it was that the food was decent, as well as the seating arrangements, some people were standing up so others like myself could not see the performance since I was seated towards the back end of the boat, other than that. Worth the money in my opinion.
Good food, friendly waiters… awesome time Got great night shots of the bridge, great entertainment Good family fun, a must do in Istanbul
It was excellent with great service and entertainment, the boat was good, a little crowded, but food was good and dancers are friendly
Great start to our turkey 🇹🇷 tour, right from Pick up to the view and the service of all the staff on the cruise was excellent. Cesur our Pick Up coordinator was constantly in touch and made it real smooth.
Excellent dancers performance and seat/table assignment. Most memorable night and superb dinner experience in Istanbul.
That was super fun night cruise. Meet new friend from around the world. The food was nice also. We took tour with transfer, we recommend to other to book this cruise with transfer since the tour finishes almost midnight, while public transport only available till 10pm.
It was amazing ... best birthday expirience ever.🤩 Everything was great: pick up at the hotel, diner, dancing, party, ..... 😊😊 Best regards, Slađana
Had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday! This was a solo trip but I met a good group of people. The pick up and drop off to/from my hotel was great! I do recommend having better directions once getting dropped up at the dock as well as better pick up instructions after the boat docks. I recommend this boat cruise.
I think it’s a great trip for very little money- they picked me up from the hotel, brought me back. On the boat was very tasty dinner ( I liked grilled fish very much), the concert was amazing and professionally done! l Photos I loved! I wish I could be with my husband and we both could enjoy the delightful trip! Highly recommend!
The cruise was magnificent, everything was on point, pick up from hotel and drop off, amazing photos and fantastic scenery, a must felt experience when visiting Istanbul, 10/10
