The whole yacht, booked for your group, cast off to reach mid-strait as the sun goes down. No shared deck and no fixed script — only your people and the skyline of two continents as the light turns gold.
We time the departure so you are out on the water as the sun drops behind the old city, minarets and domes going dark against a copper sky. Because the yacht is yours alone, the captain slows wherever you want — off the Ortaköy mosque, under the first bridge, along the Bebek shore — with no crowd between you and the view. As the light fades the palaces are floodlit and the bridges begin to glow.
The base charter covers the yacht, its captain and crew, fuel and soft drinks, with room for up to ten on the standard boat and larger yachts for bigger groups. Add a bottle of wine for the toast, canapés, a photographer or music — tell us in advance and it is ready when you step aboard. Couples take this cruise for an anniversary or a quiet evening, and it is the boat behind our proposal set-ups.
Couples, friends and small groups who want the sunset view without sharing the deck.
It is timed to the sunset for your date — usually boarding 45 to 60 minutes before sundown, so you are mid-strait for golden hour. We confirm the exact time with your booking.
The standard yacht takes up to ten guests; larger yachts carry up to eighty. Tell us your numbers and we match the boat.
Yes — the private deck and the golden light make it a favourite for proposals. See our marriage proposal page for the decorated set-up.
