The entire experience was amazing. We wanted a sushi dinner with dry white wine during the 2 hour cruise and the team handled everything. I texted our order, and they had everything ready on the boat for us. Throughout the cruise they were attentive and excellent hosts. The boat was in great condition and the right size for the choppy waters of the Bosphorus, smaller boats would rock and bob with the waves much more. Would absolutely recommend.

The sunset cruise was the perfect ending to our trip. The boat is spacious, clean and well equipped. The staff was friendly. The sights are spectacular, of course. The snacks included a fruit plate, and a plate with small pastries and biscuit. We had two drinks, and there was bottled water as well. I highly recommend it. Great value for the price.

Overall good experience, good organization, good staff. One caution: if the driver doesn’t come to pick you up by the appointed time, call the information phone number. We missed our scheduled cruise for that reason but they rescheduled. Also, pickup is designed for hotel guests so if you’re not in a hotel, also call the info number to arrange pickup. I think this event was a good value for the price.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The journey began with three pieces of Turkish delight, followed by a selection of nuts, and concluded with a plate of assorted fruits—with two types of drinks, truly a luxurious touch. The weather couldn’t have been better, blessing us with stunning golden sunshine. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and engaging, providing insightf We had an absolutely wonderful experience.

The only minor downside is that you might feel a bit seasick when the boat stops for the sunset. Overall,10 out of 10!

Boat was very nice. Crew was pleasant and courteous. We got some nice general info about Istanbul and what we were seeing, but the main thing is just enjoying the scenery and you can do that on other boat tours for less money. It was a nice tour, but next time I would opt for a cheaper ride.

Thanks for the tour. Pros, good organization, transfer, show, service, ship, interior. Cons: we didn't sail under the Bosphorus Bridge, but we really wanted to, there was no dessert, tea, or coffee. (Unless, of course, you count 2 pieces of apple and orange each)
