Step aboard and let Istanbul reveal itself the way it was always meant to be seen, from the water, after dark, with a glass in hand and music in the air.
We are going to pick you up from your hotel and transfer to our private boat. You will be greeted and set on board by our staff. The cruise will start by the Golden Horn which surrounds the Old City along the north side. After leaving behind the calm waters of Golden Horn, we will sail through the legendary Bosphorus where a breathtaking picturesque view of Istanbul is waiting for you. Even for the one who has already been on a day cruise to Bosphorus, seeing Istanbul by the sunset will be definitely an unforgettable experience.
A fresh seasonal salad sets the stage for your main course. Choose from grilled chicken steak with meatballs and rice, perfectly grilled fish on a bed of arugula and onion rings, or a beautifully crafted vegetarian plate of curry rice, sautéed vegetables, oven potato, pasta, and seasonal produce.
During this great cruise, you will enjoy our menu with salads, delicious hors d'oeuvre, grilled meat bars, Chicken Shish Kebab, Grilled Fish and fruit. If you just want to have non-alcoholic drinks, you may choose Dinner Cruise (Non-Alcoholic) option. If you like to have Alcoholic Drinks and watch the show from decorated Front Table, you can book Dinner Cruise (With Alcoholic Drinks). Our program starts with typical Turkish songs while you taste the delicious foods. At late while, once the lively times begin to catch you, our professional folklore team will present a potpourri of the most famous Anatolian dances. Little before you find yourself going with the rhythm, a breathtaking performance of Belly Dance Show will enchant the night.
