Istanbul Bosphorus Dinner Cruise with Show, 3 Hours

About this tour

Spend an evening out on the water for a three-hour dinner cruise along Istanbul's Bosphorus, the strait that splits the city between Europe and Asia. You'll sit down to a 4-course dinner with unlimited soft drinks while a live show runs through belly dance, folk dances, a henna ceremony, and traditional music. The boat passes the floodlit Bosphorus Bridge, Dolmabahce Palace, the Maiden's Tower, and Rumeli Fortress before returning to the same pier you left from.

Highlights

• Cruise the Bosphorus, the strait dividing Europe and Asia
• Pass beneath the floodlit Bosphorus Bridge
• See the 19th-century Dolmabahce Palace from the water
• View the Maiden's Tower on its own small islet
• Sail past the medieval Rumeli Fortress

How the evening runs and where to meet

You make your own way to the departure pier, so plan to arrive at least 15 minutes ahead to check in and find your seat. Hotel transfer isn't part of the base ticket, but you can add it when you book.

Once you're aboard, the boat sets off along the Bosphorus while dinner is served in courses. The live show fills the evening between them, and the boat returns to the same pier at the end. Comfortable evening clothes are the right call, and the cruise is a common pick for birthdays, anniversaries, and romantic nights out in Istanbul.
