Start your afternoon with a hotel pick-up and let your guide take you to the pier where your sightseeing boat is waiting for you. Your cruise starts along the European coast of the Bosphorus lined with imperial palaces, mosques and bridges.

When you arrive at the midpoint of the Bosphorus where Second Bosphorus Bridge and Rumeli Fortress meet, lunch will be served on board. You'll enjoy grilled meat or chicken and traditional Turkish mezes with soft drinks. Vegetarian options are available upon request.

While you approach the northern end of the Bosphorus with the Third Bridge on the channel, you will have a full view of the Black Sea (The cruise will just reach the point where the Bosphorus meets the Black Sea, it will not go out to the open sea).

You will stop at a calm cove to dive into the cool water of the Black Sea. After the 45-min swimming break, the cruise crosses to the Asian Side for the last stop: Anadolu Kavagi. It is a very small picturesque fishing village. You'll have time to stroll around the village enjoy an ice-cream or waffle. In the late afternoon, return to Kabatas port and have your guide drop you off at your hotel.
