In this article, we'll take you on a journey aboard this historically significant ferry, now transformed into a fine-dining restaurant, and explore the delights it offers during a 2.5-hour Bosphorus Cruise.

Taste of History on the Bosphorus

Le Vapeur Magique is not just a restaurant; it's a piece of Istanbul's maritime history reborn. Dating back to 1828, when Istanbul met its first steamboat named 'Swift,' this historical vessel has been lovingly restored to become the gem it is today. The name 'Vapeur' originates from the French word “bateau à vapeur,” meaning steamboat. In Turkish, it's known as “buhar gemisi.” These vessels were the precursors to the iconic Istanbul ferries we know today.

The restaurant offers a rich set menu with unlimited food and Turkish Tea, making it an ideal choice for those who relish leisurely mornings. As you savor your breakfast, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the Bosphorus.
