The tour begins with a hotel pick-up around 08:30, followed by boarding the boat at Kabatas Harbour. Our first destination is Ortakoy, renowned for its stunning mosque situated right on the Bosporus shoreline. This mosque is one of the iconic landmarks of Istanbul, and we will spend approximately 30 minutes there. Afterward, we will sail towards the Kucuksu Pavilion on the Asian Side, passing many significant architectural landmarks along the way.
The tour continues with a visit to the Rumeli Fortress, located at the narrowest section of the Bosporus Strait. This fortress was constructed to block any assistance coming from the Black Sea to Constantinople. Following the visit, you will be driven back to your hotel around 13:15. Alternatively, we can drop you off at Taksim, Dolmabahce Palace, Karakoy (Galata Tower), or Eminönü (Spice Bazaar) if you wish to continue exploring Istanbul.
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 tour is 80 Euro per person. This is a group tour available from April 1st to September 30th. Feel free to email us for further details and to book your spot. We guarantee a response to your inquiry within 24 hours.
