- Closed On: Operates daily unless weather conditions affect services.
- Entry Fee: A short ferry ride between Europe and Asia costs around 20–25 TL with an Istanbulkart. Public Bosphorus cruises usually cost around 250–350 TL, while private cruise prices can vary a lot.
- Ideal Duration: 1.5 to 6 hours, depending on route.
- Weather Tip: Carry a light jacket because it gets windy over the water.
