The guide Tubga was lovely, very attentive, always checking you was ok,,even went as far when the cruise finished she personally took us where we could get a taxi, got us a taxi and spoke to the driver to make sure we got back to our hotel. From start to finish we was kept informed and even when I messaged them because we was lost they said stay where you are and we will come and get you (after pinning my location).

We really enjoyed this cruise. Staff friendly and helpful and good commentary. Refreshments served on board and we were well looked after. Just one thing to mention on getting there. The instructions for the meeting place were somewhat chaotic. We had to ask where we were meant to be and were told where and said someone with Valena board would be there - they weren’t. In the end we went to the ticket office and they weren’t about to call Velana when a guy suddenly walked past and they flagged him down. When we got back onto the hotel WiFi later I had a what’s app with a different meeting place. If this had been sent the day before I would have got it. I had no access to the Turkish internet and didn’t get it. Please remember this for tourists and send communications the day before, not on the day which was completely useless for us. I feel we found the boat by luck only.

We had a wonderful trip with amazing food. A special thank you to our guide, who truly went above and beyond. Everything was perfectly arranged, making the trip completely stress-free for us. The guide was especially considerate of our kids and even arranged pizza for them, which made them so happy. That extra care and attention to detail really made a difference. Overall, a fantastic experience and highly recommended!

Hicimos el paseo de 2 dias por Isrambul. Nuestra guia Kubra nos acompaño los dos dias por los distintos sitios, con explicaciones claras y contestando a las multiples preguntas que haciamos en un español correcto. Ha sido una compañia util y muy agradable. Ha tenido en cuenta nuestras sugerencias e intereses (visitas no incluidas y lugares para comer). En el precio no esta incluida ninguna entrada (topkapi, cisterna, Dormebache, torre galata) ni transporte (tranvia, barco bosforo)
