Afternoon Istanbul Bosphorus Cruise Tour with Pierre Loti

 

Tour starts with a visit to the Pierre Loti. See the teahouse perched on a ridge overlooking the Golden Horn which was patronized by the French author for which it is named today. The terrace of this coffeehouse affords a breathtaking view of the Golden Horn and its environs. Take short drive to the pier where you'll board your boat for a cruise along the shores of Bosphorus, the waterway separating the two continents of Europe and Asia. You will have the chance to see the European style palaces of the Ottoman Empire and the palaces of Dolmabahce and Beylerbeyi, in striking contrast to some of the modern mansions that line up the shores of Istanbul.
