Golden Horn & Bosphorus Cruise

A cruise along the Bosphorus is essential for any trip to Istanbul. On board, we'll sail around the Golden Horn, the oldest quarter in this Turkish city.

Description

We'll meet at 3 pm in front of the store Pasion Turca in Istanbul. After meeting with the local guide, we'll begin with a 15-minute guided walking tour.

During this hour-long exploration, we'll discover iconic monuments, including the Byzantine mural, a significant artwork in Constantinople.

Following the tour, we'll walk to the port to board the boat for a sightseeing adventure around the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn. We'll sail for an hour and a half through the Golden Horn, the oldest quarter in Ottoman Istanbul.

From the boat, we'll see landmarks such as the Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, and Galata Tower. The cruise will continue along the Bosphorus, crossing its famous bridges while admiring other major sights including Dolmabahç Palace, Ç?ra?an Palace, Ortaköy Mosque, and Rumelihisari Fortress.

We will arrive at the Asian side of Istanbul at approximately 6 pm. Here you'll have two options: you can disembark to explore Üsküdar port and return on your own later, or stay on board and return to the port of departure on the ship.
