Vegetarian dinner available on request

Excellent and pleasant experience absolutely recommended for those traveling to Istanbul even just a few days. It allows you to combine the moment of dinner with something more special: the excellent service from start to finish: they took care to contact us already days in advance to agree on the time and place of the pick-up, with direct and immediate communication, even with the driver. Impeccable and on time transfer service. The frugal but typical Turkish dinner served at the right times and the show was pleasant and fun!

A great option for seeing the Bosphorus at night, though the focus is more on dinner and dancing. I would only recommend people bring extra cash, in case a photographer offers to take a picture, and keep in mind you’re on a boat - seasickness is entirely possible, so if you don’t know how good you are on a boat, take pills just in case, and bring a warm jacket to go outside and enjoy the scenery.

My wife and I really enjoyed the evening. If your hotel is located on the European side of the city center, free round trip from hotel and back is provided. It really was unforgettable 4 hours and one of the best attractions we visited in Istanbul. Everyone, hosts, service people were nice and considerate. Food was good and the show-excellent, dances from people of Anatolia. Special thanks to the cute young lady who among other dances, performed the belly dance. As our hotel was located downhill next to Taksim square, we had to walk up a steep hill to get to out bus to the cruise pier. (keep calm and face the geography). Driver walked to our hotel and lead us to his bus. Definitely, it was worth it - all well organized cruise.

What a night to remember. From the moment we were picked up at our hotel to boarding the cruise ship, were were greeted with very pleasant staff who guided us to our table and provided the best of care while we were there. The food was great and our host made sure everything was to our satisfaction the entire time. the music, dancing and entertainment were superb and in all, it was a fantastic night. I will do this cruise again next time I am in Istanbul.
