See the Private Sunset Cruise. Bosphorus Sunset Group Tour: the Golden Hour, Per Person Not every evening on the Bosphorus needs a private yacht. This shared group tour is the per-person alternative: a 2-hour sunset cruise departing daily from Karaköy, operated by our sister brand Bosphorus Sunset — rated 4.9/5 or better across 700+ verified reviews on Google, Viator and GetYourGuide. You share the yacht with a small group of fellow travellers, and the golden hour does the rest. A private luxury yacht, a small group, great service — not a big, chaotic tour boat. This is a yacht, not a boat: you cruise on the same vessel we use for private charters, shared with a small group of fellow guests. Tickets & Prices Adult tickets start at €26. That is the winter fare, from 3 November to 18 March. From 19 March to 2 November an adult ticket is €34. Children aged 3 to 7 pay €15 year-round, and under-3s travel free. Every fare we charge is in the table below — pick your date in the calendar and it shows the exact total for your party before you pay anything.

We would rather tell you here than surprise you at checkout. Children under 3 travel free, but please still add them to the booking so we know how many to expect on board. Prices are per person in euros and cover the full two hours, including everything listed under What Is Included.

The yacht heads north along the European shore while the sun is still up, passing Dolmabahçe Palace at its most photogenic, then turns and comes back along the Asian side during blue hour, with Beylerbeyi Palace lit up across the water. Group Tour or Private Yacht? This page is the shared, per-person option — ideal for couples, solo travellers and small groups who want the sunset without chartering a whole yacht. If you would rather have the yacht entirely to yourselves — your own music, route and timing — see our private sunset cruise (from €150/hour) or a full private yacht charter in Istanbul. How to Book Pick your date in the booking calendar above and reserve your seats instantly with secure card payment — or tap the WhatsApp button on this page and we will arrange it for you. Best price guarantee. Booking on this page gets you our lowest price for this departure. If you find the same date and the same option cheaper on a booking platform, send us the screenshot before you sail and we will match it. No arguing, no small print. On board — Alp, guide I am the one doing the talking on this cruise, and I will tell you what I tell every group at the start: put the phone down for the first ten minutes past Dolmabahçe. That light does not survive a camera, and you will remember it better than any picture. After that I will show you where to stand for the shot everyone actually wants — the Maiden’s Tower with the sun directly behind it, from the starboard rail. We run this as a small group on a real yacht, which is the only reason you can hear me at all. On the big tour boats, you cannot. Book here, not on a platform. Viator and GetYourGuide resell this exact departure — same yacht, same crew, same golden hour. What they add is their own commission, and it comes out of your pocket, not ours. Book on this page and you are buying from the operator itself: AST Turizm, TÜRSAB licence no. A-805, on the Bosphorus since 1967. The price in the calendar is the price you pay, cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure, and if something changes you message a person instead of a support queue. Booking and cancellation. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure, with a full refund. If you booked through a partner platform, cancel there — that platform’s own terms apply to your booking. If the captain cancels a departure for safety, you choose: another date or a full refund. Full terms in our FAQ.

Very enterprising guide educated us about the history and culture of the city, good wine and/or Turkish tea and snacks. We were lucky to have a beautiful sunset and some good people to share conversation. Highly recommend!” — Prajwal Prasad · Google review, December 2025“The sunset tour was a great experience! The hosts provided good context to the history of Istanbul. They were very friendly, offered to take different pictures for all families. They provided light snacks (i.e., roasted peanuts, biscuits and cherries) and beverages. Overall, it was awesome! Would definitely recommend” — Khafia Iftikhar · Google review, July 2026“Great tour of the Bosphorus and views of Istanbul!

Frequently Asked Questions About the Bosphorus Sunset Group Tour How much is the Bosphorus sunset group tour? €34 per person through to 2 November, after which the winter rate applies and adult tickets start from €26. Children aged 3 to 7 pay €15 year-round, and under-3s travel free. What time does the tour depart? Boarding is timed to the day's sunset rather than to a fixed clock time, which means it moves through the year — sunset in Istanbul shifts from around 19:38 on 1 September to 18:02 by the end of October. Check your date in our sunset table or ask us and we will tell you the boarding time for that day. Where does the group tour board? From a pier at Karaköy, by gangway. The exact meeting point with photographs is sent with your booking confirmation. Is food or drink included? Yes. Snacks, Turkish delight, tea and coffee are included in the ticket. Wine is an optional upgrade of two glasses per guest. Tell us in advance if you have a specific requirement and we will tell you plainly what is possible on your date. Is the group tour suitable for guests with limited mobility? Boarding is by gangway from a pier, which means the shared tour is not suitable for guests with significant mobility impairments. A private charter allows far more planning around it — ask us before booking and we will give you a straight answer about what is possible. What happens if it rains? The tour runs. Every yacht has an enclosed saloon as well as an open deck. If the captain cancels a departure for safety, you choose between another date and a full refund. Can I cancel my booking? Yes, free of charge up to 24 hours before departure, with any prepayment refunded in full. Is the price per person or for the whole yacht? Per person. This is a shared departure: you buy a seat and share the yacht with other guests. If you would rather have the yacht to yourselves, a private charter starts at €150 per hour with a two-hour minimum. Who operates the tour, and are you licensed? Constantine Yachts is the boutique yacht brand of AST Tourism, an Istanbul operator licensed by TÜRSAB (licence A-805) that has worked the Bosphorus since 1967. Every departure sails with a professional crew. How will we find the boarding point on the day? Boarding is at Karaköy on the European side, a few minutes from the Galata Bridge and the Karaköy tram stop. After booking we send the exact map pin and photographs of the pier, so nobody is searching on the day. Are there any hidden fees or port taxes? No. The ticket price is the price you pay. Anything optional is shown before you confirm, never added at the pier. Is booking directly with us cheaper than booking through a platform? Yes. Platforms add their commission to the same departure; the last time we compared our own listing, the direct price was about 4% lower. Can we check your reviews before booking? Please do. We are rated 5.0 on Google from 259 reviews, with more than 700 guest reviews in total across Google, Viator and GetYourGuide. How much deposit do you take, and how do we pay? A 30% deposit holds your date; the balance is due before departure. Payments run through Stripe over a secure SSL connection, so your card details are handled by the payment provider and never stored by us. Can a guest who uses a wheelchair come on board? Unfortunately not. Boarding is from the pier over a gangway with a step, and we would rather tell you now than have someone turned away on the day. If a guest has limited mobility but can manage a step with help, write to us and we will talk it through honestly. Can we bring our dog? Yes, pets are welcome on board. Let us know in advance so the crew can prepare for them. Do children pay the full price? No. On the shared group tour children under 3 travel free and ages 3 to 7 pay a child fare of €15. On a private charter the price covers the whole yacht, so children add nothing to it. Tell us their ages when you book so the crew can prepare. Is it safe to bring young children? Yes. The Bosphorus is sheltered water rather than open sea, so the crossing is calm. Life jackets are on board including children’s sizes, and the crew is told in advance how many children are aboard. On a private charter you also control the pace and the route. Will anyone get seasick? Very unlikely. The Bosphorus is a strait, not open sea, and the water is calm for most of the year. In years of hosting, seasickness has almost never been an issue — and if someone in your group is worried, we can keep the route close to the shore. Do you sail in winter, and is it worth it? Yes, year-round. Every yacht has an enclosed saloon as well as an open deck, so a cold evening does not cancel anything. Winter has fewer boats on the water, sharper light and, on the shared sunset tour, a lower fare — €26 instead of €34 from 3 November to 18 March. What happens if the weather cancels our departure? If the captain calls off a departure for safety, you choose: another date or a full refund. Cancellation is also free up to 24 hours before departure, so a bad forecast…
