The overall cruise experience was awesome, travelled about an hour each way, got to see a different view of the major buildings, voice over (english) would speak a little about each building as we got close to it. Free tea and coffee on the boat, food was offered too but I didnt eat anything. I saw other people have drinks too. There was seating inside and outside, 3 levels for the outside and 2 for the inside with good views wherever you were seated. It was a good experience, if you are in Istanbul for a short time or want to get your bearings.

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).

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.

A wonderfully coordinated experience from start to finish. Everything ran seamlessly: from the meeting point to the cruise itself and the return. The guides arrived early to organize participants and check lists, and since we were a large group, we were divided between two yachts. The cruise was fantastic, with engaging live commentary filled with interesting insights. The onboard service was excellent, and the light snacks provided were delightful. The stopover was equally enjoyable, I grabbed some yogurt and browsed a few charming artisanal pop-up stalls. Overall, it was a memorable outing that I’d happily recommend.

"The boat turned up on time. Plenty space.
It was a wet and overcast day so boat had covers and we stayed dry.
Went up and down both sides of lake, saw 2 bridges and everything in between.
Snacks were ok. Drinks fine. Alcohol is extra. Arrived back on time"
