Dinner Cruise

The Bosphorus, one of the most exquisite waterways in the world, is a narrow 31 km strait between the continents of Europe and Asia connecting the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara. In Byzantine and early Ottoman days there was little settlement on either side, but from the 18th century it became a favourite place for the sultans and their entourage, who built their villas and waterside residences there.

While cruising along the Asian and European shores of the Bosphorus, guests enjoy a delightfully surprising mixture of past and present — beautiful Ottoman-era villas (yalı) and historical fortresses that have survived, complemented by modern waterfront residences.
