For first timers in Istanbul, it is an experience and offers a window into the mix culture the city boasts. Pick & drop was timely, comfortable and the driver polite. Service inside the cruise was decent. Views at night of the landmarks were a visual treat, it could have been better with a guide or audio guide.

It was wonderful experience and enjoyed every moment. We were picked up on time, the pick up and drop off arrangement was well organised. On the cruise, we were given full of entertainment, music, dance and delicious food. We enjoyed beautiful night view of the Istanbul city and pleasant atmosphere with the surrounding environment. Worth of money!

It was a perfect night, we absolutely loved it. The service was great, they picked us up at the hotel and drove us to the boat. There we met our amazing waiter Elvis and the most fun night in Istanbul began. Good food, great show and many many nice views all around. We were delighted to be there! Would definitely recommend to everyone!

Couldn’t find boat when arrived, got sent left right and centre, on and off different boats for the best part of half hour totally ruined the beginning of the trip! Once we finally made it on the boat and calmed down then it was an enjoyable night.
