Strait Up Views

The Bosphorus Strait forms part of the continental boundary between Asia and Europe, and divides Turkey by separating Anatolia from Thrace. It is also said to be the world's narrowest strait used for international navigation. Your 90-minute experience begins at a timing of your choosing as you have booked the safest fast track ticket with the most flexible timeline. You will set off from the port in Istanbul to its famous breeze against your face.

This round-trip course presents you with major landmarks including royal palaces, age-old castles and most exclusive houses. If you’re ‘banking’ on snapping some surreal photographs, Bosphorus has shores that are filled with magnificent scenes and natural beauties.

Intercontinental Sights & Sounds

The lavish waterfront palaces of Dolmabahçe followed by Çiragan will go by first, casting a splendid warmth against the cold blue. Then, you will approach Ortakoy Mosque, which stands just before the oldest bridge over the Bosphorus. Go under it, and continue to see a great many sights at this unique intersection of Asia and Europe. Download the Audio Guide App to your Smartphone and learn about the important sights and neighborhoods on the way.
