    A must do when in Istanbul. The cruise takes you to the border bridge that connects the European Continent Turkey and the Asia Continent Turkey. Amazing to cruise alot the European side and then the Asian side. The guide will explain to you the differences of lifestyles between these two continents also.

    The world's most interesting yacht races are held in the Bosphorus every year. It is on the Asian coast while the teams leave on the European coast.

    We had dinner with a show on the Pereme boat, 40 euros, pick up at the hotel, the food was acceptable, they gave you the option of a drink with and without alcoholic lemonade, the show left a lot to be desired, I have seen much better in Istanbul, at the end they played a DJ which I think was the best, It's obviously good for tourists.

    The narrow channel of the Bosphorus allocates two cities of Turkey and two continents, both Asia and Europe. We took a night voyage to rejoice in this unforgettable geographical strait. Indeed an outstanding experience!

    One of most important and historical waterways in the world. A lot of history encompassing this one - Byzantine, ottomans and the modern Turkey. One of the highlights of the Mediterranean region, must visit when in this part of the world

    Imagine yourself in the middle of 2 continents - Asia and Europe. This is one of the most memorable experience that happened in Bosphorus Strait in Istanbul Turkey. While passing the strait, you will feel the history surrounded by this body of water.

    You can’t just visit Istanbul without experiencing a tour or a soirée aboard a Bosphorus cruise, sailing through the Eurasian sea that splits two continents. A must do! I’ve enjoyed experiencing both, I had a morning tour and a soirée later on, our lunch and dinner were even included too.

    The natural strait to divide geographically between Europe and Asia. It is also the narrowest strait for international navigation linking the Black Sea in the north and the Aegean Sea and Mediterranian Sea in the south.

    Had a beautiful experience in the Bosphorus area and cruising through it. We did the cruise in the evening time from when it was bright under the sun till it got dark and the shades changed into night lights. Would definitely recommend, both sides of the Bosphorus have lots of iconic monuments and views to watch out for.

    A very beautiful place where nature is in harmony with the trees with the Bosphorus Strait with beautiful building in a very beautiful way. The place is more than wonderful. The proximity to the Bosphorus makes you possible to watch the place closely. I advise everyone to take a cruise in the Bosphorus Strait.

    Bosphorus Ancient Greek is a natural strait and an internationally significant waterway located in Istanbul in northwestern Turkiye that connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara. It forms part of the continental boundary between Asia and Europe, and divides Turkiye by separating Anatolia from Thrace. It is the world's narrowest strait used for international navigation. All tourists visiting Istunbul must enjoy this by riding cruise trip. It provides excellent pictorial points. It gives an exceptional view of the city on both sides of Bosphorus Strait.

    Amazing view, the weather in Septemper is the best, most of the visitors to it try the boat trip as It has a special feature, it connected the European Istanbul side with the Asian side. Moreover, you can have a seat at the waterside. The car park is available.

    East meets West, imagine the centuries of history around this mighty waterway, beautiful day or night. The Bosporus straight joins the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara, the bridge across it, is called Martyrs Bridge and is around 1,560m in length or 5,118 ft, (Toll in one direction). Be sure to travel on a ferry across the Bosporus, fairly cheap way to sight see and great views of both east and west sides. Ortaköy Mosque situated at the waterside of the Ortaköy pier square, one of the most popular locations on the Bosphorus, see pictures

  • 5/5 Farkhod K. 11 months ago on Google
    During my recent trip to Istanbul, I had the pleasure of taking a ferry ride through the Bosphorus Strait. The beauty and breathtaking views of the city were truly unforgettable. As we sailed along, I could see both the European and Asian sides of Istanbul, and it was amazing to witness the contrast between the two. The feeling of being on the water was incredibly peaceful and calming. The gentle breeze, the sound of the waves, and the sight of seagulls soaring above us made for a truly magical experience. One of the highlights of the trip was feeding the seagulls from our hands, which was a thrilling and unforgettable experience. The ferry boats were comfortable and spacious, making for a relaxing journey. The crew was friendly and helpful, and they provided us with interesting information about the landmarks we passed along the way. Overall, the ferry ride through the Bosphorus Strait was one of the most incredible experiences of my trip to Istanbul. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. It's a great way to see Istanbul from a different perspective and to appreciate its unique beauty and charm.
