Full Day Bosphorus Tour (Asia & Beylerbeyi Palace)
Overview
Cruise the strait, cross to Asia and step inside a sultan's summer palace — a full day devoted to the Bosphorus.
For clients who love the water, this is the day to book. It opens with the Spice Bazaar and a boat cruise up the Golden Horn and Bosphorus, passing the old city walls and the fortresses of Rumeli and Anadolu from the sea.
Crossing to the Asian side, you climb Çamlıca Hill for the finest panorama in Istanbul, visit the grand Çamlıca Mosque, and tour the marble-and-mother-of-pearl Beylerbeyi Palace, the sultans' summer residence on the shore. A four-course lunch is included in this beautifully varied day.
