Experience the unique opportunity to witness Europe, Asia, and the Black Sea all in a single day with our highly sought-after Bosphorus & Black Sea Cruise. The journey begins with a convenient hotel pick-up around 08:30, followed by boarding the boat at Kabatas Harbour.
Our first destination is Ortakoy, renowned for its beautiful mosque that sits right on the Bosphorus shore, embracing the sea. This mosque is one of the iconic landmarks of Istanbul, and we will spend about 30 minutes here. Next, the cruise continues towards the Kucuksu Pavilion on the Asian Side, where you’ll admire numerous significant buildings along the route. The following stop is the Rumeli Fortress, located at the Bosporus' narrowest point, originally constructed to block aid from the Black Sea reaching Constantinople.
After ascending the fortress, the cruise will continue to Poyrazkoy, where you will enjoy lunch on board as we sail. Poyrazkoy is the charming village that greets the Black Sea, offering a chance to witness the convergence of the Black Sea and the Bosporus. The beach at Poyrazkoy is delightful, and you’re welcome to swim if you bring your towels and swimsuits. The tour concludes around 17:30 back at Kabatas, and you will be transported to your hotel.
Please be aware that Kucuksu Pavilion is closed on Mondays and Thursdays. On these days, we will visit the Maiden’s Tower instead.
The price for this excursion is 150 Euro per person. It is a group tour available from April 1st to September 30th. Contact us via email for further details and to reserve your spot. We will respond to your inquiry within 24 hours.
