Our tour guide Kaeir was very cool, telling us all about the historical landmarks and stories. It is also low season so the entire yacht had only about 10 people. Plenty of tea, cookies and fruit.

Good value cruise with small number of guests. Covers most of the key sights along the Bosphorus. Can be a little windy so be prepared, particularly in the spring months when things are a little cooler. Very informative commentary.

Very nice sunset cruise, great way to see the Bosphorous. The organisation and communication was prompt and efficient. The yacht was modern and not too crowded. The guide and crew were attentive and informative. Snacks and drinks provided were okay.

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.

This was a fun trip. We didn't get any food, just tea, so I'd recommend bringing some on board. There's a one hour stop at a leather shop on the Asian side where my friends and I all bought leather jackets. There's probably a deal between guide and shop, but feel free to go somewhere else if you want. We got some quick food at a coffee shop before going back on board. For $4 it was a good trip. The gps for pickup was in the right spot
