Yacht Charter in Istanbul
Yacht charter in Istanbul, hourly or full-day
The open-ended option: rent a yacht in Istanbul for whatever reason brought you here. Small celebrations, photo shoots, a family afternoon on the water, a meeting that needed to happen somewhere unusual, a film location. We’ve done all of these. The boat is the same one used for the private sunset and dinner cruises — up to 12 people, with an indoor cabin, open decks, and a professional crew including an English-speaking captain.
Minimum booking is 2 hours at €364. Beyond that: half-day (4 hours) and full-day (8 hours) packages have discounted hourly rates. Routes are flexible — full Bosphorus loop, Black Sea mouth and back, just the first bridge area for photography, or anchoring somewhere quiet for the afternoon. The captain advises on what’s feasible for your time window.
Extras you can add at booking: catering (Turkish, Mediterranean, or specific dietary), alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, rakı, or a specific list), onboard DJ or acoustic musician, photography/videography package, and floral or themed decoration for celebrations.
Who this is for: anyone whose need doesn’t match a packaged tour — creative shoots, corporate half-days, extended family outings, unusual meetings. For specific occasions, the named packages (wedding, proposal, corporate) include occasion-specific setup at no extra boat cost.
Practical: book as far ahead as possible in high season (May–October); 24 hours advance is the minimum.

Si percepisce subito la qualità del servizio. Dalla prenotazione online chiara all’accoglienza a bordo. Lo yacht Premium è spazioso e ben tenuto. La rotta è studiata per mostrare il meglio. Il fatto di poter richiedere servizi extra (come un fotografo) lo rende perfetto per eventi. Esperienza super positiva, consigliata a chi cerca il meglio.

سحر حقيقي. الغروب من على سطح اليخت الخاص هو مشهد مختلف تماماً. الهدوء، الألوان في السماء، وانعكاسها على الماء… شيء سريالي. الطاقم كان لطيفاً واليخت (باقة Premium) كان أنيقاً جداً. إذا أردت أن تدهش شريك حياتك أو تحتفل بمناسبة، فهذه هي الطريقة المثالية.

Una experiencia singular. No se parece a nada que hayamos hecho antes. La sensación de navegar en un yate solo para ti, con las vistas más icónicas de Estambul, es increíble. El silencio, roto solo por el motor y el agua, es parte del lujo. Optamos por el Premium y no nos arrepentimos. Espectacular.

حلم تحقق. استئجار يخت خاص في إسطنبول كان أفضل قرار في رحلتنا. الخصوصية والرفاهية كانتا تامتين. الطاقم ممتاز واليخت فاخر ونظيف. المناظر خلابة، خاصة عند المرور تحت جسر البوسفور. تجربة تستحق السعر بدون أي تردد. أنصح كل من يزور إسطنبول أن يجرب هذه التجربة الفريدة.
Bosphorus Sunset Team –
شكراً أميرة! سعداء جداً أن استئجار اليخت الخاص كان أفضل قرار في رحلتكم. الخصوصية والرفاهية والمناظر الخلابة هي ما نسعى لتقديمه دائماً. نتمنى أن نراكم مجدداً! — Bosphorus Sunset Team

Si nota l’attenzione ai dettagli. Dalla pulizia impeccabile dello yacht alla conoscenza approfondita del capitano, tutto è curato. La scelta del pacchetto VIP si è rivelata azzeccatissima per la stabilità e lo spazio. Un servizio che non teme confronti e che rende Istanbul ancora più affascinante. Complimenti per la professionalità.

Pavel Grigoriev (verified owner) –
Всё прошло как по маслу. Бронирование, встреча, сама прогулка. Яхта VIP класса управлялась безупречно, ход был таким плавным, что можно было забыть, что ты на воде. Это высший пилотаж. Виды, конечно, фантастические, но именно эта техническая безупречность делает опыт по-настоящему премиальным.
Bosphorus Sunset Team –
Спасибо, Павел! Когда всё идет как по маслу — это именно то, к чему мы стремимся. Плавный ход VIP яхты позволяет полностью погрузиться в красоту Босфора и забыть обо всём остальном. Рады, что оценили! — Bosphorus Sunset Team

Un ricordo che vale più di qualsiasi oggetto. Abbiamo regalato questa esperienza (pacchetto VIP) ai nostri genitori e sono stati commossi. La comodità dello yacht ha permesso loro di godersi ogni minuto senza fatica. L’equipaggio è stato premuroso e attento. Un regalo di esperienza perfetto, che rimarrà per sempre.

Grazie mille, Francesca! Che regalo meraviglioso per i vostri genitori. Il pacchetto VIP e pensato proprio per creare ricordi che valgono piu di qualsiasi oggetto. Siamo commossi anche noi dalla vostra storia! — Bosphorus Sunset Team

Más que un paseo, es un recuerdo vivo que se crea ante tus ojos. Cada momento en el yate privado (elegimos Premium) se siente especial. Las fotos son increíbles, pero la sensación de paz y exclusividad es lo que realmente perdura. El equipo es muy profesional y hace que todo fluya sin esfuerzo. Inolvidable.
