Private yacht dinner
Private Bosphorus Dinner Cruise
A private Bosphorus dinner cruise keeps the yacht, the table, and the timing on your side. It works for couples, proposals, birthdays, anniversaries, and small groups that want dinner on the water without shared seating. If you want the boat without a set dinner brief, the private yacht Istanbul price guide lists every vessel from €220 per yacht.
When a private Bosphorus dinner yacht is the right fit
Private dinner for two
Best for couples who want their own table, bridge views, and a slower rhythm than a shared cruise.
Proposal dinner on the Bosphorus
Best when the meal, route, flowers, and photo moments need to stay focused on one private reveal.
Birthday or anniversary table
Best when dinner, cake, music, and celebration mood matter more than a public cruise atmosphere.
Private family or friend dinner
Best for smaller groups who want to dine together on the Bosphorus without sharing the yacht.
The yacht, the menu and the evening clock
Every private dinner runs on one of the published yachts below, booked for the whole boat. The 4-course dinner is €55 per guest on top of the yacht, so dinner for two on the Boutique yacht comes to €330.
You can book it online without waiting for a quote: pick the yacht and date in the yacht charter booking planner and add the 4-course dinner as an extra for each guest.
| Yacht | Guests | Yacht, 2 hours | With dinner for every seat |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boutique Yacht | up to 12 | €220 | €880 for 12 guests |
| Premium Yacht | up to 15 | €320 | €1145 for 15 guests |

The menu
Four courses, with the main chosen per guest: fish, chicken, meat, vegetarian, vegan. Tell us the choices when you book so the kitchen prepares each plate; drinks packages, cake and flowers are quoted on request.
When to sail
A private yacht leaves at the time you choose. To dine with the sunset, start close to the shared sunset cruise, which leaves at 17:00 at the moment; for bridge lights, start after dark.
Boarding and changes
The yacht boards at Karaköy Pier unless your confirmation names another pier. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure. Evenings on the water are cooler than in the city, so bring a layer.

Private dinner FAQs
What makes this different from a shared dinner cruise?▼
The yacht is reserved for your group only, so dinner, timing, and onboard atmosphere are shaped around your table instead of a shared seating plan.
How many guests fit best?▼
Couples and small groups are the cleanest fit. The right yacht depends on guest count, table layout, and how much open deck space you want.
Can you arrange proposal or birthday details?▼
Yes. Flowers, cake, photographer, violinist, and table styling can all be arranged on board.
Can the dinner stay simple?▼
Yes. If you only want a private table, a clear route, and a quiet evening on the water, we can keep the setup understated.
Which pages should I compare before booking?▼
If dinner is not the only priority, compare this page with the shared Bosphorus dinner cruise, yacht charter Istanbul, or proposal yacht rental Istanbul pages.
How much does a private dinner cruise cost?▼
The yacht starts from €220 for 2 hours (whole boat, crew included). The 4-course dinner is €55 per person, so dinner for two starts from €330 in total.
Where does the private dinner yacht board?▼
Private yachts board at Karaköy Pier by default; Kurucesme Marina is available on request. The exact berth is confirmed in your booking message. The shared dinner cruise is different: it boards at Kabataş pier.
Can I cancel a private dinner cruise?▼
Yes. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure.
