Sunset Cruise on a Luxury Yacht with Hotel Pick-up (small group)

This Yacht cruise on the Bosphorus in Istanbul was one of the highlights of our week. The yacht was beautiful and accommodating. The staff was incredible with excellent information shared from the tour guide throughout the experience. There were good snacks provided along with water and juice and the opportunity to purchase wine and other drinks. The small group was great. We were blessed with beautiful weather and a gorgeous sunset. It was all fabulous.

What a wonderful cruise! Boat was perfect - only about 30 onboard. We were on upper level / half inside, half outside making for excellent photo ops. Staff wonderful - special shout out to Emre and Nahad. Emre served the perfect amount of light snacks and drinks. Emre shared history & details on the sights as we passed them. Very laid back & relaxed. Excellent views. Truly the perfect Bosphorous cruise.

This was a perfect introduction to Istanbul without having to contend with crowds of people and at a leisurely pace, being introduced to the city. Stunning sunset was a bonus

Spectacular, great knowledge of history and locations. Great way to see only a small part of the city from the water.

Beautiful cruise through the Bosphorus Straight. Good snacks, juice and water. Beer available. Gave us a menu but never came back for our order. Gave us blankets that really was a nice touch as it cooled down when the sun set. We couldn’t really hear our guide but we were outside. I would have liked to hear a little more in the history we were cruising by, but didn’t go inside! Overall we had a great time and would do it again.
