Take the office celebration out onto the strait

An office party in a booked-out restaurant looks like every other office party. Put the same people on a private yacht between two continents and the evening starts working for you: the city slides past, phones come out for the skyline, and departments actually mix.

What a company evening on the Bosphorus looks like

Guests board at a central pier, the lines come off, and the venue starts moving. Dolmabahçe Palace goes past at eye level, Ortaköy Mosque appears under its bridge, and by the second drink both the European and the Asian shore are lit up behind the buffet. Ferries cross in the middle distance, seagulls track the stern, and nobody is watching the clock — the deck itself is the programme.

Event-class yachts take 40 to 100+ guests, with room for a stage, a bar line and a dance floor.

Formats that work on board

  • Office parties and end-of-year nights — dinner, a DJ and a dance deck instead of a hotel function room.
  • Networking events — a fixed guest list, standing food, and no way to slip out early, which is rather the point.
  • Team events — a shared deck does more for a group in two hours than most agendas manage in a day.
  • Presentations and product launches — screen and microphone on board, the skyline as your closing slide.
  • Business dinners for partners — for a smaller, quieter table, see the business meeting format.

Timing is flexible: rentals start at two hours, and slots run day and evening. Most companies take a late-afternoon departure along the classic Bosphorus route, so the party begins in daylight and docks against the night skyline.

What it costs

The smallest format — a leadership dinner on a Comfort yacht — starts from €300 for the first two hours of rental. Event yachts for 40 to 100+ guests, Premium boats, DJs, branding and photography are quoted individually, because headcount and programme drive the price. The fixed figures sit on the prices page; to get a number for your own event, describe it in the charter planner and we return an itemised quote.

Booking for a company

Write to us on WhatsApp in English, Russian or Turkish — a typical first reply arrives in about 15 minutes. Tell us the headcount, the date and the mood you want; we answer with two or three yachts, a route and a per-item budget. One thread covers the boat, catering, decor, music and transfers, so nobody in your office has to herd five vendors.

Invoices and paperwork

Corporate bookings are routine for us: several payment methods are available, and the details are agreed in the same conversation as the quote.

How many guests can a corporate yacht take?

Comfort and Premium yachts cover boards and small teams from 2 to about 30 guests; dedicated event yachts host 40 to 100+ with catering lines, a DJ booth and space to move between decks.

Can we run a presentation on board?

Yes. A screen, microphone and sound are arranged in advance, and the enclosed saloon works as a meeting room while the deck is social. Send the technical list and we confirm what the chosen yacht carries.

Do corporate cruises run in winter?

They do — cruises run year-round, and the yachts have enclosed saloons, so December company nights against the lit-up skyline are a regular booking.

How far ahead should a company book?

For 10–30 guests, a week or two is usually enough. For event yachts and December dates, start the conversation a month or more out — the big hulls and holiday evenings are the first to go.
