🇹🇷 35 RMB for a Cruise? THE BEST Deal in Istanbul! 🚢

In Istanbul, I spent just 35 RMB on a Bosphorus cruise—the smartest money I ever spent! My travel buddy and I even rode it twice because, compared to overpriced attractions, it’s a STEAL! Here’s how to nail it: 📍 Boarding Spot 🔹 Bosphorus Cruise Tours & Tickets (Blue sign, under Galata Bridge—avoid yellow-vest touts!). 💵 Cash only (No scams!). ⏰ Schedule 🕙 10:05 AM - 8:05 PM (Hourly departures). ⏳ 90-minute ride: Old City → Asia → New City → Old City. 🌉 Sights Along the Way Yeni Mosque → Galata Tower → Dolmabahçe Palace → Eurasia Bridge → Ortaköy Mosque → Maiden’s Tower. 🌇 Pro Tips Take the 5:00 PM cruise: Sunset + mosques lighting up = magic hour! Photos: 1️⃣ Seagull chase: Toss bread in circles (use Live mode!). 2️⃣ Continental split: 0.5x zoom at the bridge. 3️⃣ Silhouette shots: Right after sunset. ⚠️ Lessons Learned Motion sickness? Pills are a must—waves are sneaky! 🌊 Jacket required: Deck winds are brutal at dusk. Snacks onboard: Coke ≈ 4 RMB (toilets are free!). #Istanbul #BudgetTravel #BosphorusMagic #TurkeyOnABudget
