The impressive expanse of water that separates Turkey’s Asian and European halves; sailing along the Bosphorus is a great way to get a new perspective of Istanbul. As you pass through this fascinating waterway, take in the fishermen along the busy Galata Bridge, the impressive tankers, groups of dolphins, and see the stunning mosques and palaces from sea level.
Whilst this is a brilliant day-time excursion, its possible to hire boats for the evening, in which you can enjoy the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace being dramatically lit, and watch as the sun goes down across the waters of the Golden Horn.
