Private boat or shared sunset cruise?

For a honeymoon, the honest answer is: it depends on the budget and the mood. The private charter is €400 for two hours — the whole 24-metre yacht to yourselves, your music, your route, and nobody else in the photographs. The shared sunset cruise is €40 per person and still gives you the golden-hour water, just with company on deck.

If the charter is in reach, take the sunset window (17:00–22:00, €250 per hour): the captain holds position near Rumeli Hisarı while the sun goes down, and the city lights come on during the return leg.

Small extras that work

A cake on deck is €25 and a 40-photo professional package is €30 — both added at checkout, both brought out at the moment you choose. If you are planning a surprise, tell us on WhatsApp and the crew will play along.

Nothing is charged when you book: no deposit, no card details. You pay on board, and cancellation is free up to the stated window — so you can hold an evening now and refine the plan later.
