About this experience
A boat trip is the optimal way to get acquainted with the city: no traffic jams, excellent perspectives, and an audioguide narration about the most important sites. Our boat accommodates up to 200 people, but during the pandemic its capacity is limited to no more than 90-100 passengers, so everyone will be comfortable and able to enjoy the iconic monuments of Istanbul without overcrowding.
What to Expect
Boat trip. We will start from the Sea of Marmara, sail to the Golden Horn bay and under the bridge across the Bosphorus, connecting Europe and Asia. From the water, you will admire the magnificent mosques of Istanbul — including Hagia Sophia and Suleymaniye, see the splendid palaces of Dolmabahce, Beylerbeyi, and Topkapi, as well as the hunting lodges of the Ottoman sultans. You will be amazed by the grandeur of the ancient fortresses Rumeli and Anadolu Hisar, see the towering Galata Tower on the shore — and the Maiden's Tower rising among the waves.
Audioguide in English and Russian. The narration will tell you the most remarkable facts about the landmarks we pass by and hear about important figures in the history of Istanbul.
