Sailing on the pulse of Istanbul, the Bosphorus Strait connects the legends of the Eurasian continent with its shimmering waves. During the day, the snow-white dome of Dolmabahçe Palace reflects on the water, while at dusk, the silhouette of Suleymaniye Mosque is bathed in the glow of the sunset. As night falls, the lights on both shores resemble stars scattered across the sea. The onboard commentary unveils the layered history of Byzantium and the Ottomans, while the aroma of Turkish red tea on the deck adds a touch of charm to this journey through time.

▲The dome of the Blue Mosque gazes across the sea at modern skyscrapers, narrating Istanbul's millennia-long symphony.

▲As the sunset turns the strait into a honey-colored hue, flocks of seagulls chase the waves behind the boat, pursuing the last rays of sunlight. On the Eurasian divide, the setting sun gilds Topkapi Palace with flowing gold.

▲From the 15th-century Rumeli Fortress to the neo-Baroque palaces, architectural masterpieces on both shores unfold a chronological tale amidst the waves.
