Kuruçeşme'den çıkıp, güzel bir boğaz turu sonrasında 3. Köprü'ye kadar gittik. Kaptanımız yüzme turu için 2 alternatif sundu. Havanın rüzgarlı olmasından dolayı daha korunaklı olan alternatifi tercih ettik. Yüzme turu ve yemeğin ardından, yine keyifli bir boğaz turuyla Kuruçeşme'ye döndük. Servis noktasında biraz eksikler olsa da turumuz çok güzel geçti, herkese tavsiye ederim. İstanbul'da yazın tadını çıkarmak isteyenler için Boğaz'ın Karadeniz'le birleştiği yerde denize girilebilecek çok güzel yerler var.
