Fatih took care of us. He is very nice, good with kids, helpful and friendly. The boat cruise was a great experience and would recommend to others.
Silvia
Wonderful experience, the show and food was amazing I enjoyed it a lot.
Dennis M.
Wonderful evening with Bosphorus view, dinner and passionate Turkish music and dances :)
Vanessa W.
The guide Tubga was lovely, very attentive, always checking you was ok,,even went as far when the cruise finished she personally took us where we could get a taxi, got us a taxi and spoke to the driver to make sure we got back to our hotel. From start to finish we was kept informed and even when I messaged them because we was lost they said stay where you are and we will come and get you (after pinning my location).
Jeffrey S.
Service was great, the show was amazing and very entertaining. Thank you to our waiter!
Irene F.
we really like the transport that took us to cruise, we love the food and performance we have a lovely evening
Michele C.
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.
Anna M.
Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff, a beautiful evening with a view of the Bosphorus. Everything is enchanting
Luis C.
Nothing to complain about, true professionals. Thank you
Jessie B.
Awesome activity. now some details - they allowed us to come next day, as we reached late on our scheduled date, with the same ticket. i have seen videos saying ferry can replace cruise, but certainly not. snaks are drinks are also good and totally value for money
Allison C.
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.
Fernando S.
Great experience and friendly guides too! Definitely recommend as a nice way to see parts of the city!

Great experience! Very easy to navigate and follow and book, the tour guides were very helpful and it was very easy to find everything especially the meetup points. They were very good at communicating and explained the history well. It was cold so they provided blankets and warm tea and lots of snacks. Everyone was very hospitable and inviting. Would definitely recommend this tour, the boat was also wonderful and the group size was perfect.
Alfredo T.
Very fun and totally worth the price. There is animation from the beginning of the journey. Dinner is acceptable. Turkish entries, a dish of fish or meat and dessert baclava. Not recommended for those who need to eat a lot. It lasts about 3H. I like it.
