Amazing Bosphorus boat tour! Hassan was an incredibly kind and attentive guide, making everyone feel very welcome and cared for, always on top of every detail. The cruise itself was exceptional, with beautiful views and a very relaxed atmosphere. Honestly, the price was too low for such a great experience – outstanding value and highly recommended!

Luxurious yacht, snacks and tea after embarking, tour guide commentary for coastal landmarks, enjoyable landing and side trip to yogurt cafe in Asia, then smooth sailing back to Europe. Great way to experience the beauty of Istanbul and it’s unique waterway.

I really enjoyed seeing Istanbul from the Bosphorus and the boat and food were very good. The audio guide buffered and was quite frustrating so I decided just to enjoy the view and check my Google maps if I needed to know what I was looking at. It was a bit chilly so we were given blankets which was nice. k

There will be photographers who take photos and print as album without asking us and compel to buy. It is expensive than the overall trip. You can politely reject it as they print the album without asking us.

Really fun activity. Our guide was excellent- knowledgeable, interesting and humorous. He imparted lots of information but left us plenty of time to just enjoy the scenery without a running commentary- much appreciated.

What a wonderful cruise! Boat was perfect - only about 30 onboard. We were on upper level / half inside, half outside making for excellent photo ops. Staff wonderful - special shout out to Emre and Nahad. Emre served the perfect amount of light snacks and drinks. Emre shared history & details on the sights as we passed them. Very laid back & relaxed. Excellent views. Truly the perfect Bosphorous cruise.

It was a really great evening on the ship. The organization was perfect. We had chosen the hotel transfer option and were informed in advance of the pick-up time and then picked up on time and with no fuss. On the ship itself we had a very nice and courteous waiter who showed us the best photo spots on the ship and also took photos of us. The food was delicious and varied (starter, main course and dessert). Price performance was really good and we can only recommend this event. The view of Istanbul at night is not to be missed.
