Really enjoyable experience! The transport was very well organized, the boat was clean and big. The dinner was OK, but the main point was about seeing Bosphorus at night and that we did. We were seated with some great people from all over the world and had a great evening on the cruise! Definitely one of the highlights of our stay here

The evening was just perfect. Beautiful views, music. Istanbul at night is incomparable. The food is delicious, and the alcohol is good. The service and staff are wonderful. This tour is suitable for everyone. We went with a group for fun, and now we want to go as a couple for a romantic experience. You must go!

"It was very nice to see the Bosphorus at sunset. There was a little wind in the evening hours. I would recommend it to everyone. The boat was a bit crowded, but it's normal in the summer season because everywhere is crowded.

It was a wonderful night and I would do it all over again. The pick up was jusg a little bit late because of the traffic but once we were there they got us our table , we payed for better table to be able to see the show. The fopd was maybe average but we didn’t go there because of the food. The views at night are magical, the show was incredible and it kept us entertained! I would do it all over again

We had the best experience ever with Yasin! He did a phenomenal job showing us all of Istanbul & giving us history lessons on all the areas we went too. We also got to skip the long lines for tickets which saved us so much time! He also took us to a incredible restaurant with authentic Turkish cussine! I highly recommend this for anyone trying to see Istanbul in one day!!

Good price for a full day around the Prince Islands! Pick up service worked well, we were picked up on time. The food/drinks on the boat are pricey and not necessarily tasty, so we recommend that you also bring some from home. The islands are beautiful and there is plenty of time to be on the island! So completely satisfied. Only negative for us was the pushiness on the boat to buy food, drinks, pictures or anything else.
