Corporate & Events Yacht Charter in Istanbul
A private venue that moves. Host clients, reward a team or launch something memorable on the Bosphorus from €220 — the whole yacht to your company, with catering, AV and branding arranged on request. Professional crew, a smooth route past the palaces, and an evening your guests will remember.
How much is a corporate yacht charter in Istanbul?
A private corporate yacht charter in Istanbul starts at €220 with Luma Yacht — the whole boat for your company, with captain and crew included. The final price depends on the size of yacht for your headcount, how long you sail and the season, since peak evenings and summer dates book up first. Whether it is client hosting, a team-building day, a product launch, an awards dinner or an end-of-year celebration, the deck is yours for the booked window. Catering, drinks, a sound system and microphone for presentations, décor and light branding, and a photographer are all arranged on request and quoted separately. Fixed-price yachts for up to 40 guests can be reserved online; 90- and 150-guest event yachts and bespoke production remain quote requests. Luma is TÜRSAB-licensed (#14316), operating on the Bosphorus since 2001 with 50,000+ guests hosted — a safe, professional choice for a company event.
Aboard a Luma charter
What's included in a corporate yacht charter price?
A corporate yacht charter with Luma starts at €220, and that figure is for the whole boat — exclusively yours for the booked window, with a professional licensed captain and crew included, and the Bosphorus route past the waterfront palaces and under the bridges. The agenda and timing are built around your brief rather than a fixed tour script, whether that is a daytime working session or an evening reception. What the base charter does not automatically include is catering and drinks, a sound system and microphone for presentations, light branding and décor, and a photographer — these are arranged on request and quoted transparently alongside the charter, so your finance team sees a single all-in figure with nothing hidden. The final price then depends on the size of yacht your headcount needs and how long you sail, matched across our seven charter choices, including two newly listed private yachts.
What corporate occasions suit a yacht charter?
A private yacht works for client hosting and entertaining, team-building and away-days, product launches and press events, awards and gala dinners, networking receptions and end-of-year celebrations. Because the boat is exclusively yours, the agenda runs on your terms — a working session with a view, or a relaxed evening to thank a team. We tailor the timing and route to the brief rather than a fixed tour script.
Catering, AV and branding on request
We arrange catering and drinks to suit the occasion — from canapés and a reception bar to a seated dinner — plus a sound system and microphone for speeches or presentations, light branding and décor, and a photographer to capture the event. Everything is arranged on request and quoted transparently with your charter, so you can plan the run of show with confidence and no hidden costs.
How many guests can you host?
Capacity depends on the yacht, and we match the vessel to your group — from an intimate client dinner to a larger reception on our event-deck yacht, part of our seven charter choices, including two newly listed private yachts. Tell us the expected headcount and the format (standing reception or seated meal) and we recommend the right boat and quote it. Larger groups, full-day hire and multi-boat events are priced individually.
Where corporate charters board
Corporate charters sail the Bosphorus, boarding from a central Istanbul pier we confirm with you for easy guest access on both the European and Asian sides. The route runs past the waterfront palaces and under the bridges, with timing built around your agenda — daytime working sessions or evening receptions. For an evening that sets off at golden hour, see our sunset charter.

Guests simply follow the crew's safety instructions on board.

- Charters run subject to the weather, sea conditions and your captain's judgement, which is final on safety, route and timing.

If you need to change or cancel yourselves, tell us as early as possible and we'll do our best to help; the exact notice periods and any non-refundable deposit are set out in the written quote you accept.
