About this activity

Take your adventure to the next level with one of our luxury private yachts! Our cruises are completely private and you have the freedom to plan your personalized experience from start to finish. Our private yachts are far more convenient and enjoyable than public cruises because you don't have to deal with other tourists or stay on a crowded cruise. Bring your friends, family and closest loved ones to make your yacht trip a truly memorable experience. With this three-hour luxury private yacht tour, you will be able to see the most popular monuments of Istanbul from the sea. During your tour, an audio guide will tell you what you are seeing and will tell its history. The yacht will stop at important points on the Bosphorus for you to take amazing photographs from the deck. Our crew can help you to take group photos in the Istanbul scenery too. We serve snacks and non-alcoholic beverages for free.

Big hands up to the Su Yacht crew staff!!!

We just jumped off the yacht and we couldn't wait to write a review after a lovely experience we just lived. We have been cruising all around the Bosphorus, discovering for 2 hours the gems that this characteristic place has, having a quite rich breakfast on board, served from very high professional but still friendly staff. Can't wait for the next year to repeat it and bring more people with us. Highly recommended!!! Massive Thank you to the very cool Captain Muzaffer and the two member of crew Batuhan and Mert for this amazing experience.

Wow

What a unique and fun experience. Su Yachts was a first-rate experience from start to finish. We rented the SU Royale for a Princes’ Island tour full day. It was well worth the price and made for a really remarkable day on the water. We docked on the islands, spent two hours sightseeing and then got to enjoy some time swimming and eating lunch. Only issue is that Lunch is boated in and it was cold. Heating up the meat would have been appreciated. Breakfast was exceptional and rivaled any 4-star hotel. Far more food than two people can eat, but helped absorb the Efes. On our return we cruised the European side of Istanbul. Absolutely amazing views of the city and its landmark mosques and building. Excellent crew that knew when they should be attentive and when we wanted to relax alone, very good crew. Everyone was friendly and there to make the experience fun. Well worth the price for a once in a lifetime experience.

A definite highlight!

Great people, great price, for our small family of four (children 11&12) it was a highlight of the visit to istanbul in December 2021. The kids loved it. Easy to find, rented the boat at 1200l per hour for two hours which was perfect- the kids were engaged the whole time . We paid an extra 600l to get the boat to pick us up at Kabasta ferry docks as the traffic in istanbul is horrendous! The crew were engaging, friendly and made the trip easy. Nice tea and coffee included. An absolute highlight and well worth it when you think you would pay nearly €100 for the ‘normal’ cruise amongst everyone else! Exchange rate at time of writing 20l to the GBP. Definitely worth it, two families together would make it a complete steal.

Outstanding experience

We had a wonderful cruise along the Bosphorus. The staff was very friendly and the boat was in very good condition. Views were stunning from the boat. Hotels and guides charge much higher prices for this cruise. I’m lucky to find those guys directly.
