How the Night Unfolds

From hotel pick-up to the moment the BOSFOR ties up again at Karaköy Pier — the evening in order.

  1. Hotel pick-up

    Your free hotel transfer collects you from your hotel in central Istanbul and brings you to Karaköy Pier. Share your hotel when you book and we confirm the time with you.

  2. Boarding opens

    The BOSFOR is alongside at Karaköy Pier and ready from 20:00. Come aboard and settle in before the ship casts off.

  3. Departure

    At 20:30 the ship leaves the pier and heads out onto the Bosphorus, with Europe on one side and Asia on the other.

  4. Dinner is served

    Dinner arrives course by course while the ship is under way, starting with the Turkish starter plate and the main course you chose.

  5. Turkish night show

    The programme begins: ten performances, from the whirling dervishes and the folk dances of Anatolia through to the drums, the oriental dance and the DJ set.

  6. Back at the pier

    The BOSFOR ties up again at Karaköy Pier at 23:30. Your free hotel transfer is included for the ride back.
