Bosphorus Strait in Istanbul is considered a natural border between Europe and Asia. The historical waterfront has served as a prime trade route for millennia. The 32 km long waterway connects the Black Sea in the north to Sea of Marmara in the south. Bosphorus cruise can be a short cruise for an hour or a day long cruise with multiple stopovers. The evening cruise is mesmerising, when the nightscape comes alive, with twinkling reflection of palaces and nearby structures brightening up the waterfront. Evening cruise accompanied with traditional dinner and belly dancing show is something not to be missed while in Istanbul. The round trip cruise starts from Eminönü by the Galata Bridge. The cruise passes by elegant Dolmabahce Palace, Rumeli Fortress and imposing marble façade of Ciragan Palace. Pass under the Bosphorus Bridge and sail up to Faith bridge. Admire the Ottoman legacy and other historical structures from a different perspective. An evening luxury yacht tour of Bosphorus Strait is an unforgettable experience. Enjoy a lavish meal with wines while sailing by the city of sultans. The touristy cruise with a gala dinner is equally fascinating if you are not in a mood to splurge. No matter which cruise you opt for, sailing across the Bosphorus Strait dividing two continents will leave you awestruck!Refrain from posting comments that are obscene, defamatory or inflammatory, and do not indulge in personal attacks, name calling or inciting hatred against any community.
