The cheapest way onto the Bosphorus is the ferry — honestly

Before you compare our tickets, know the baseline: the public Şehir Hatları ferry crosses and tours the same strait for a few euros, and it's wonderful. The cruises priced above exist for a different job — sightseeing routes instead of commuter schedules, audio guides instead of engine noise, decks built for views, and departures timed for sunset, dinner or a slow breakfast. If the number is all that matters, take the ferry; if the experience is the point, this table is the honest cost of each version of it.

What explains the price differences?

The spread maps to what's on board. The sightseeing and sunset cruises are shared boats with audio guides — the ticket covers the route and the narration, which is why they're the least expensive. The dinner cruise and breakfast cruise carry a full meal and (at dinner) live entertainment in the price. The luxury yacht sunset cruise charges for space — a small group on a boat built for far fewer people — and the private yacht tops the table because the entire vessel and crew answer to your group alone.

How payment and delivery work

All prices are charged in EUR by card through a secure payment provider. The moment payment is confirmed, your ticket is emailed as a mobile ticket — nothing to collect, nothing to print. Show it on your phone at the pier. Each ticket is valid for the date and guest count you selected, and cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure.

When do prices change?

Prices on this page are synchronized with live inventory on every site update, so the amount shown always equals the amount charged at checkout. Seasonal demand moves availability more than price — sunset and dinner departures sell out first in summer — so booking early locks your date, and free 24-hour cancellation means it costs nothing to change your mind.
