New Year's Eve on the Bosphorous

Información

One of the best ways to enjoy this vibrant city on New Year’s Eve has to be from the Bosphorous, the strait of water which flows through Istanbul, splitting the city between the European and Asian continents.

This special evening begins by sailing up the Bosphorous, passing under suspension bridges and viewing Ottoman summer palaces, waterside mansions and modern villas which line the European and Asian coasts. The panoramic view of Istanbul at night, when the city is alive with celebrations to bring in the New Year, with superior views of fireworks at midnight (we will get you as close as we can) and dinner will be truly memorable.

Additionally, there is traditional entertainment which includes Asuk Masuk, an imitation play of dwarfs which belongs to the Taseli district of Silifke and is performed by 2 male dancers; Naz Eyleme, a traditional Turkish melody musical performance; an Anatolian folk dance group; a henna ceremony; a local Romany dance; Turkish live music and also a DJ playing both Turkish & International music; Gaval Regs - I, Dance of the Tambourine and of course a belly dancer.
