Anadolu Hisari Yacht Charter Guide
Meeting Point of History and Nature: Anadolu Hisari
Located at the narrowest point of the Bosphorus, where the waters of the Göksu River embrace the Bosphorus, the historical Anadolu Hisarı (Anatolian Fortress) is one of the most romantic and peaceful boat rental locations in Istanbul. Your journey, starting right at the foot of the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge, in the shadow of the historical fortress, offers you both a historical atmosphere and an experience intertwined with nature.
Anadolu Hisari boat rental service is especially ideal for those seeking tranquility. You can have breakfast in the calm waters of the Göksu River or watch the view of Rumeli Fortress against the current of the Bosphorus.
