Bosphorus Luxury Lunch Cruise & Black Sea Swimming Experience

Step aboard a luxury yacht and set sail on an unforgettable five-hour journey along the Bosphorus, extending all the way to the Black Sea. Accompanied by a professional guide, discover Istanbul’s most iconic waterfront landmarks before reaching the tranquil northern shores. Enjoy a relaxing stop in Anadolu Kavağı, where a delicious seaside lunch awaits, complemented by soft drinks and fresh seasonal fruits served on board. During the summer months, take the opportunity to swim in a beautiful, secluded cove—an experience that blends comfort, scenery, and exclusivity into one exceptional cruise. As you cruise further north, watch the coastal landscapes. Pass beneath the Bosphorus bridges, admire Ottoman-era waterfront mansions, and witness the meeting point of two seas at the Black Sea entrance. With limited guests on board, the atmosphere remains intimate and refined, allowing you to fully relax, enjoy attentive service, and experience the Bosphorus in a way few travelers ever do.
