We don't put a single boat on a pedestal — we match the right vessel to your party and your occasion. From an intimate motor yacht for two to a 30-guest event deck, every Luma charter is whole-boat and crewed, from €200.
Luma is a direct Bosphorus charter operator, and we work across a handpicked set of motor yachts — plus sister vessels not listed online — so we can match the boat to the booking rather than the other way round. When you enquire, we look at three things: your party size, your occasion and your budget. A proposal for two suits an intimate motor yacht; a family birthday wants room to move and a swim stop; a corporate evening for thirty needs a broad event deck and space for catering. Every charter is whole-boat and crewed — captain, crew and fuel included — and priced from €200depending on the vessel, your hours and the season. Tell us what you're planning on WhatsApp and we recommend the right yacht and send a fixed, all-in quote. Luma is TÜRSAB-licensed (A Group #14316), sailing since 2001.
The fleet
A guide to the kinds of yacht we charter on the Bosphorus. Exact vessels are confirmed with your quote — we reserve the boat that best fits your date, headcount and occasion.
Vessel 1 · 8–10 guests
Best for: Couples · proposals · small celebrations
A sleek, easy-to-board motor yacht for the most personal days — a proposal at golden hour or a couple's afternoon on the strait. Open and shaded deck space, a comfortable saloon and a crew that keeps a low profile.
Vessel 2 · 10–14 guests
Best for: Families · birthdays · half-day charters
A versatile mid-size motor yacht with generous seating, sun deck and a cabin below — well suited to a family day with swim stops, a birthday afternoon, or a relaxed half-day cruise past the palaces.
Vessel 3 · 12–18 guests
Best for: Milestone events · stag & hen days · groups
A polished yacht with a roomy entertaining deck, premium finishes and space for a playlist and drinks on board — the natural choice for a stag day, a milestone birthday or a group that wants room to move.
Vessel 4 · 20–30 guests
Best for: Corporate hosting · launches · larger parties
A larger vessel built for hosting — broad deck space, room for catering and a moving venue that takes a crowd past the waterfront landmarks. Ideal for client evenings, product launches and bigger celebrations.
Vessel 5 · On request
Best for: Statement days · full-day & overnight · VIP
For a true statement — a luxury motor yacht with premium interiors, full crew service and the comfort for a full-day itinerary or a high-end occasion. Specification and capacity are confirmed to your brief.
Capacities and classes are a guide. As a direct operator we also hold access to sister yachts that aren't listed online — if your party or brief is unusual, ask, and we'll find the right boat.
