Istanbul Yacht Tour Prices – How Is a Private Bosphorus Cruise Priced?
Istanbul yacht tour prices are not a one-size-fits-all list. Because the yacht is reserved only for your group, the price is calculated from your plan: the duration, the date and time, the number of guests and any menu or extras you choose. This page explains what shapes the Istanbul Bosphorus cruise price, which cruises we offer and what is included in every booking.
What affects the price?
- Duration: hourly rental, 2–3 hour cruises, half day or a 6–8 hour full-day charter.
- Date and time: weekday or weekend, daytime, sunset or evening, and special dates such as New Year's Eve.
- Number of guests: from 2 up to 77 guests; seated dining for up to 60.
- Food and drinks: breakfast, lunch or dinner menus, alcoholic drinks and bar service.
