BosforTour’s Bosphorus dinner cruise costs €24.60 per adult, all in: dinner, the eight-act Turkish night show and unlimited soft drinks for three hours on the water. Children aged 4–9 pay €19.60, children up to 3 come free, and nothing is paid until you are on board.
The price of a dinner cruise is usually the least informative number on its listing, because it is rarely the price of the evening. A figure appears in large type, and then the drinks, the show, the second course or the seat by the window turn out to cost extra. So this page does the arithmetic in the open: what the €24.60 buys, what children pay, what the three optional extras cost, and what an ordinary booking comes to once everything is added up.
One evening, complete. Three hours on the water from Cibali Pier on the Golden Horn, out under the Galata Bridge and up the Bosphorus to the second bridge and back. Dinner in four movements — ten cold mezes to share, a warm börek, a main course chosen from four, the house semolina dessert. Water, cola, juice and tea, as much as you like, all night. The live Turkish night show in eight acts, and the DJ on the dance floor after it.
There is one package on the boat. That matters for the price in a way that is easy to miss: there is no cheaper version with less food, and no dearer one that buys a better table or a different menu, so the €24.60 guest and the person at the next table are having the same evening. The full list, course by course and act by act, is on what the price includes.
Children are priced by age on the night of the cruise, in three bands:
The booking form asks for children by these same bands, so the total it shows you is already the right one. More on bringing them — which main they usually choose, how late the evening runs — is on the evening with children.
Everything above is included. Three things are not, and each is optional and added only if you choose it:
| Extra | Price | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Drinks package | +€15 per adult | Unlimited all evening: beer, rakı, vodka, gin, red and white wine. Taken per adult, so one of two can have it. In full |
| Hotel transfer | +€5 per person | From your hotel to the pier and back again afterwards, from fourteen central districts. Free for ages 0–3. The areas |
| Romantic table | +€15 per table | A table dressed with candles and flowers, for an anniversary, a birthday or a proposal. |
Imported drinks — whisky, tequila, champagne and the like — and cocktails sit outside the drinks package and are paid at the bar, at the bar’s prices.
These are the figures the booking form produces for six ordinary bookings, worked through so you can check them against your own.
| Booking | Total | How it adds up |
|---|---|---|
| One adult | €24.60 | €24.60 |
| Two adults | €49.20 | 2 × €24.60 |
| Two adults, drinks package for both, romantic table | €94.20 | €49.20 + 2 × €15 + €15 |
| Two adults, a child of 6, a baby of 2 | €68.80 | €49.20 + €19.60 + €0 |
| The same family, with the hotel transfer | €83.80 | €68.80 + 3 × €5 (the baby rides free) |
| Ten adults, with the hotel transfer | €296.00 | 10 × €24.60 + 10 × €5 |
A group pays exactly what ten individual guests would; there is nothing to negotiate and nothing to put down in advance. How a group books under one name is on booking for a group.
On board, on the night. There is no deposit and no online checkout at all, so a reservation costs nothing to make and nothing to cancel. You can settle in cash — euros, Turkish lira or US dollars — or by card.
Because nothing is taken in advance, the cancellation rule is simple: free until two hours before departure, which is 19:00 on the day. Booking, paying and cancelling are covered step by step on how booking works.
31 December is a separate gala evening with its own programme and its own price; it has a page of its own. Every other night of the year is priced as above.
The figures on this page are the ones the booking form uses, and they are kept in step with it. To see the whole evening before deciding, the main page has the menu, the show and the boat in pictures.
Dinner, unlimited soft drinks, the eight-act show, the DJ and three hours on the water — and the two things that are not included.
The form or WhatsApp, the same day until 21:00. No deposit, pay on board, cancel free until two hours before.
Soft drinks are included. The drinks package is €15 per adult, unlimited all evening; imports and cocktails are paid at the bar.
One departure, every night of the year. Doors at 20:00, away at 21:00, back at Cibali Pier between 23:45 and midnight. Dinner, the full Turkish night programme and unlimited soft drinks are in the price; you settle it on board, and you can cancel free until two hours before departure.
€24.60 per person, all in · same-day booking until 21:00 · free cancellation until 19:00
