BOSPHORUS

The Bosphorus, where Asia and Europe gaze at each other across the sea; the homeland of unique natural and historical beauties. Both shores contain many values waiting to be discovered by visitors.

From the southern tip facing the Sea of Marmara to the Rumeli and Anatolian Lighthouses opening to the Black Sea in the north, the Bosphorus reflects a surreal story into the waters of Istanbul. Traveling by sea, visiting the small ports of the Bosphorus, is as enjoyable as exploring the shores by land. The unmatched beauty of the scenery is completed by the architectural marvels of mansions built along the shores during the Ottoman period. The mansions, accompanying the panorama throughout the entire tour, represent the primary examples of Bosphorus architecture. These exquisite examples, 360 of which survive to this day, are of unique value on a global scale.

The Bosphorus neighborhoods seen throughout the tour; Arnavutköy, Beylerbeyi, Kanlıca, Aşiyan, Vaniköy, Yeniköy, Beykoz, Sarıyer, are like verses of the same poem. The Anatolian and Rumeli Fortresses, rivaling each other across the two shores, open a page from history for their visitors. The sweet wind of the Bosphorus, its changing colors, and the perpetual presence of seagulls accompany travelers throughout the journey.
