Is Renting a Yacht Difficult? Planning a Bosphorus Tour Is Easier Than You Think
Renting a yacht isn't complicated—it's simple, quick, and far more accessible than it seems. Once you take the first step, the Bosphorus welcomes you.

Renting a yacht sounds glamorous, doesn't it?
A private boat, Istanbul's breathtaking skyline, your favorite people...
But that's exactly why many people hesitate to take the first step.
"Too expensive," "too complicated," or "too much to arrange." In reality, the process is much simpler than most expect—elegant, yet easy.

📌 Note: At Boğaz Çocuğu, we keep things simple. You enjoy the experience—we handle the details.


What Do You Need to Rent a Yacht?

Just three basic details:

  • What day?
  • How many hours?
  • How many people?

With that info, we help you choose the right yacht, meal plan (if any), and ideal time slot.
Whether it's a romantic dinner for two or a small celebration with friends, you set the tone—we provide the flow.

💡 Tip: Minimum tour duration is 2 hours. For a complete experience, 2–3 hours is ideal.


Is a Menu Required?

Not at all.
You can book with or without food service.

🍳 Breakfast – 1,250 TL / person
🍽️ Dinner – 1,500 TL / person

Regardless of your choice, everything is professionally prepared and served.
