What the evening actually looks like
Real moments from a Bosphorus dinner cruise night — the boat, the table, and the Turkish Night show on board.
Go Bosphorus Tour is a licensed Istanbul operator (TÜRSAB No. 17672) running evening dinner cruises on the Bosphorus from Kabataş Pier. Every night at 20:30 our boat sails for three hours along the strait between Europe and Asia, passing Dolmabahçe Palace, Ortaköy Mosque and under the illuminated Bosphorus Bridge, while guests enjoy a full Turkish dinner — ten meze, warm börek, a main course and dessert, with unlimited soft drinks. On board, the Turkish Night show brings whirling dervishes, folk dances, belly dance, live music and a DJ. Choose the Dinner Cruise from €25 per adult or a VIP Stage Table, add hotel pickup, drinks or a birthday cake, and pay on board in cash or by card — no prepayment. On December 31 we also run a New Year's Eve cruise with unlimited alcohol and hotel transfer. Our team answers on WhatsApp in Arabic, English and Turkish, from your first question until you are back at the pier. See full prices, menu and photos on our Bosphorus dinner cruise page.

“A very interesting experience, seeing Bosphore at night, the lights of the city reflecting in the dark waters. The boat has 3 decks, the restaurant and the show taking place on the 1st one. The space is quite generous for a river cruise ship, there is a dancing place and there is enough space between the tables. The food is various and qualitative. The personnel is very friendly and professional. All in all, it was a trip to remember.”
“It was a nice tour! I really enjoyed the Bosphorus night cruise — it was a beautiful and enjoyable experience from beginning to end. The organization was excellent, the trip was comfortable, and it was full of great vibes and beautiful memories. I'm very happy with the experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting.”
“They were super easy to work with and responded so quickly; I’ll definitely use them again, and the three-hour Bosphorus trip felt a bit short—I wanted more and will do it again; it was an amazing time.”
“Very quick handling of the request. Well done. The transfer was on time. Thank you, everything went well.”
“Very beautiful, the staff very attentive and involved, sensational atmosphere! I RECOMMEND!!!!!”
“Really nice tour. We had a great time, everything was well organized. Would definitely recommend.”

It depends on what matters most to you. For an evening cruise, look for a full Turkish dinner (not just snacks), a live show, clear per-person pricing with no hidden fees, and a TÜRSAB-licensed operator. Go Bosphorus Tour offers all of these — a dinner cruise from €25 with simple optional extras, or a VIP stage table with unlimited drinks.
Yes. Go Bosphorus Tour is licensed by TÜRSAB (Turkish Travel Agencies Association), the official body regulating tour operators in Turkey, under license No. 17672. Payment is made on board with no advance deposit required, and reservations can be confirmed directly by WhatsApp.
You're free to cancel at any time. We recommend cancelling at least 4 hours before your scheduled departure so we can offer the spot to another guest.
No physical ID or passport is required to board. We simply recommend keeping a photo of your ID on your phone, just in case.
Safety comes first — Istanbul's municipality automatically halts all yacht and boat traffic on the Bosphorus in bad weather, so there's no risk of sailing in unsafe conditions. If your departure is affected, we'll help you rebook.
Rarely. The Bosphorus is a sheltered strait and usually very calm, so most guests feel nothing at all. If you're sensitive to motion, choose a seat in the middle of the boat and enjoy the view of the horizon.
