Overview

Explore Istanbul on a day cruise along the Bosphorus Strait and the waters of the Black Sea! With an onboard guide, learn about Istanbul and enjoy three stops to discover a small fishing village called Anadolu Kavagi. See where the city’s Ottoman-era sultans spent summer vacations at Ortaköy and Rumeli Hisarı Fortress, and take a tour of Küçüksu Palace — one of the city’s gems. Swim in the Black Sea in büyük liman off the boat or explore the medieval ruins of Anadolu Kavağı, and lunch at the restaurant featuring Turkish meze is also included.

Q: Will I get seasick on Guided Bosphorus & Black Sea Cruise – 4 Stops from Istanbul?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
