Places to See on Bosphorus

Galata Tower

Standing tall above the Karaköy district, the iconic Galata Tower is one of the most recognized landmarks in Istanbul. While enjoying your yacht rental in Istanbul, you can admire this medieval structure from the water as the sun begins to set. Its panoramic view from the top is matched only by the beauty of watching the tower from a Bosphorus sunset cruise, where the sky paints a perfect backdrop behind its ancient silhouette.

GalataPort

A modern hub blending luxury shopping, dining, and cruise terminals, Galataport is a striking contrast to Istanbul’s historic skyline. Located near many sunset cruise Istanbul departure points, Galataport is often the starting view for guests boarding our private yachts. It offers a vibrant coastal experience that beautifully transitions into the tranquil elegance of a private Bosphorus yacht tour.

Dolmabahce Palace

As your yacht glides past Dolmabahçe Palace on a sunset cruise in Istanbul, you’ll witness the grandeur of Ottoman-European architecture reflecting off the Bosphorus. This 19th-century palace is a key highlight of any yacht rental Istanbul experience, especially when its illuminated façade glows against the evening sky during a luxury Bosphorus sunset cruise.

Çirağan Palace

Now a lavish hotel, the historic Çırağan Palace was once a residence of Ottoman sultans. Guests enjoying a private yacht rental in Istanbul often pass by this architectural gem on their Bosphorus cruise, especially during sunset hours when its marble walls shimmer in gold. A view of Çırağan from the water is one of the most memorable moments of a sunset cruise Istanbul.

Beylerbeyi Palace

On the Asian shore of the Bosphorus, Beylerbeyi Palace greets you with its elegant baroque design and peaceful charm. This hidden gem is frequently admired from the deck of our yachts during Bosphorus sunset cruises, offering a glimpse into Ottoman royal life. Its position near the bridge makes it a scenic highlight of any Istanbul yacht rental route.

Rumeli Fortress

Impressively situated on the European side of the Bosphorus, Rumeli Fortress is a breathtaking sight to behold during your sunset yacht tour in Istanbul. Built by Sultan Mehmed II before the conquest of Constantinople, the fortress is a powerful reminder of the city’s history, often captured in photos by guests aboard our luxury Bosphorus cruises.

Maiden's Tower ( Kız Kulesi )

No Bosphorus sunset cruise is complete without circling the legendary Maiden’s Tower, standing alone at the mouth of the Bosphorus. This iconic symbol of Istanbul is best experienced from the water, and it’s a favorite spot for romantic moments on a sunset cruise in Istanbul, especially for those booking a private yacht rental.

Hagia Sophia

While Hagia Sophia is inland, its majestic silhouette is visible from the Bosphorus and adds spiritual depth to your Istanbul yacht rental journey. Guests often reflect on the grandeur of this architectural wonder while enjoying a peaceful sunset cruise, as the golden hour bathes the skyline in warm hues, linking past and present.

Topkapi Palace

Rising above the Seraglio Point, Topkapi Palace offers a dramatic cliffside view during your Bosphorus cruise. Once the heart of Ottoman rule, it becomes even more magical when seen from the water during a sunset cruise in Istanbul. For many of our guests, viewing this historic complex is a highlight of their luxury yacht rental experience.
