Bosphorus Cruises in Istanbul

What an experience. The best way to see Istanbul. We were picked up in an amazing yacht and taken along the European and Asian coastlines of the city. The crew couldn’t have been more attentive and friendly, providing us with wonderful hospitality. It is great to be able to see all the sights from a different angle that you wouldn’t appreciate if just walking. We had a lovely sunny day which made it even better. Highly recommended.

Nothing to complain about, true professionals. Thank you

We had a wonderful boat trip! The boat was beautiful, spacious, and very new — we really enjoyed it. We were offered snacks, fresh fruits, tea, and coffee, which made the experience even nicer. The staff was amazing very kind and professional and we were really satisfied with everything. A special thank you to Tugba Bozmese, who took great care of us,she was wonderful, and we truly recommend her and this trip!

This trip on the Bosphorus was fantastic in all respects. Beautiful boat with lots of room to spread out, snacks, tea, and service, and the guide shared plenty of interesting information without dominating. He also had a nice sense of humor. We were on the water for 2.5 hours and felt it was a bargain for the price.

The cruise along the river was beautiful, and the snacks were plenty to hold us over until dinner. They even provided information along the cruise, which was a nice touch

Burak made the dinner and party very pleasant and confortable. hés doing his job very well 🙏ak

What a perfect experience! The service was on another level, the ride was right on time, and the food was incredible. The show was the highlight - absolutely amazing. A big thanks to everyone for making it so special!

Excellent service. Must try, appreciate blake for an awesome service.

This yacht cruise was amazing. The captain expertly navigated the Bosphorus so we got great views of everything with enough time for photos-especially the beautiful sunset. The guide narrating did a superb job with excellent relaxing, interesting music with soft gentle volume between narration. The crew timed service of bringing first water, the tasty nut assortment, lemonade, then cookie and baklava, then fruit platter. Things came out at a pace that was perfect for the length of the cruise. We ordered wine which was reasonably priced. We were planning on dinner after but found we weren’t hungry at all. The crew serving were congenial and I noticed very kind to children and all the guests on board. The boat was comfortable, spacious for our group size, We weren’t crowded at all. Every detail on the Subset Bosphorus was perfect and I highly recommend.

Very well,beautiful views and very pacefull personal

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)

Thanks for a great excursion! Everything is organized at the highest level. Istanbul at sunset is wonderful !!

Wonderful views, tea, coffee, fruits, nuts are served on the boat. Friendly guys, taking pictures, telling us that we are sailing, but in English. You can take food on board. We were lucky with the weather, in the evening I advise you to take something warm with you, a hoodie, a light jacket, although there were blankets on the boat. Thank you very much.

Great experience overall, even with not so great weather. Drinks on board are pricey, but they do provide a lot of complimentary drinks and snacks.

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.

Very enjoyable trip in a clean, comfortable, not crowded boat. The refreshments were perfect and very well received and the crew were helpful and well informed. The wee stopover on the Asian side of the Bosporus was what it was. It was very brief but ticked a box and the yoghurt sold by the wee café really was delicious. There was just enough time to buy a pot of yoghurt or an ice cream and then we were off again. The only thing I would change was the music which for me personally, was a bit too loud and obtrusive. Other than that, it was a pleasant way of seeing the Bosporus and the Golden Horn. I would recommend this excursion.

This was my activity in Istanbul and loved it. Excellent way to orientate to the city - history, Bosphorus area, and Istanbul in general. Fantastic guide and experience

Amazing tour, great service, knowledgeable guide and comfortable yacht. They take their time showing you all the important parts of Istanbul along the Bosphoros.

The entertainment when we had it. The DJ did a great job with the music. That got everyone up and dancing after the belly dancer.

The best thing was the topic of our tour- archetecture accent of the guide. The tour was simply magnificent if you thing of valye for money. Nice boat with free turkush tea and prices for snaks were very good. if some ody needs to see Istambul in short time- this Bospbor tour is the best thing to start with- no traffic and amazing views. we had only one day in Istanbul and were very happy that we picked this Cruise. Staff was very polite!
