Istanbul River Dinner Cruise & Tours 2025

Wooow! Incredible experience! Pick up from hotel, long cruise, delicious food and many food, many apetizers and normal dinner with deser with tea coffee, we was have no limited alcohol, about 7 musician shows, Derwisze, Folk Team, Belly dance and more, later music with dj, amazing vievs, later after this they was take us back to hotel!

Great night! Dinner and shows are great. They are really helpful and kind. Bosphorus view is an amazing at night. The pickup and transfer to boat went smoothly. The whole tour was very well organized.

It was worth the money. The staff is polite and attentive to your comfort. The ship was quite simple, with two floors, but only one was used. It had many covered tables, one of which was reserved for you in advance. There are three small open decks with semi-sofas. The food is decent but not exceptional, with a choice of fish and meat for the main course. The show (dances and such) didn't impress me. Bring your own alcohol and occupy a sofa on the upper deck with your friends.

Really good value for money. Enjoyed the Bosphorus tour and spent decent amount of time on 2 islands. Food was decent and hosts

I recommend this tour of Istanbul with dinner and folk dances to everyone. Sensational!

I recently went on the cruise with my family and had an absolutely amazing time. From the moment we arrived at the port, we were greeted by friendly staff and efficient transportation. The cruise ship itself was beautiful and spacious, with plenty of activities and amenities to keep us entertained. One of the highlights of the cruise was our waiter, Salhat. Salhat was always attentive and friendly, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great dining experience. He was always quick to recommend dishes, drinks, and was there for whatever we wanted Another thing I really appreciated about the cruise was the activities. The food on the cruise was also delicious, everything was cooked to perfection. The desserts were especially memorable. Overall, we had a wonderful time on the cruise. It was a great way to relax and have some fun with our family. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation

The evening was just perfect. Beautiful views, music. Istanbul at night is incomparable. The food is delicious, and the alcohol is good. The service and staff are wonderful. This tour is suitable for everyone. We went with a group for fun, and now we want to go as a couple for a romantic experience. You must go!

It was a fantastic tour the guide was a real professional person who knew the ins and out of the Island and he never wasted a minute of our time at the Island . Even when we wanted to go by the buggy ride he helped us in buying the Istanbul card as u know it was all in Tukey language.

Extremely well organised. With plenty of food, beautiful views and varied dance and musicals, the cruise was beautiful and a must do in Istanbul. There are photographers too onboard and they will print a personalized photo album for you if you would like to buy. However that seemed to be on the pricier side and we didn't buy it. Pickup and Drop at the hotel was hassle free and very timely

A wonderful tour of Istanbul at night. Very tasty seabass for the hot dish. Lovely waiters who constantly take care of the guests and refill drinks. Remarkable shows of Turkish and Eastern dances. Everything is top-notch. The only thing I would add is tea or coffee with sweets at the end of the program for those who want it.

Nice organisation. Pickup went well from the hotel. Cruise was really good + spectacle nice. Kids really enjoyed. Regarding dinner we arrived at the boat and the starter was already served on the tables (salads + cheese pastry). Then 2 choices for the main course (fish or mix of meat). To finish some sweets and fruits as desert. One small bad point is the coffee or tea not included (extra fee) but anyway I highly recommend

We had a great time on the cruise. The organization was perfect. We chose the hotel transfer option, we were informed on the pick-up time via Whatsapp message and the driver picked us up from the hotel on time. Our waiter was very attentive, our glasses were never empty. He also showed us the best photo spot and took a picture of us. The food was delicious and varied. The performance was really good (both singers and dancers) and we can only recommend this dinner cruise.

It was so good so I booked again the night before I left Istanbul, I had a very bad problem with my leg and I couldn't walk so good and they really helped me, I am very grateful with the driver who picked us up and everybody working there, nice people, the show is super complete and funny, the music, the view. I would love to go back again.

Thank you for the fantastic organization. Delicious food, a great show, and a beautiful night in Istanbul!

Excellent and pleasant experience absolutely recommended for those traveling to Istanbul even just a few days. It allows you to combine the moment of dinner with something more special: the excellent service from start to finish: they took care to contact us already days in advance to agree on the time and place of the pick-up, with direct and immediate communication, even with the driver. Impeccable and on time transfer service. The frugal but typical Turkish dinner served at the right times and the show was pleasant and fun!

everything perfect, although the purchase said Spanish language, and nobody spoke it. still a good experience

I do love the Boshoporus Cruise, the entertainment was amazing, food was okay but not really much for the Standard Menu, The staff are very great and friendly, the pick up was very late but after i do understand because we were stay at Sultan Ahmet area which is very traffic at that time and especially for the bus.

Beautiful experience. Super attentive and attentive waiter, he pampered us a lot, he also helped us put the jacket on. Discreet food and really fun and very very nice entertainment. Having heard Bella Ciao gave an extra touch to this experience. Between one course and another we were on the upper bridge to see the landscape .. what about the very punctual transfer. Advise!

Highly recommend LÜFER Cruise! We had a fantastic experience. Pick up and drop was very well co-ordinated and timely inspite of the heavy traffic. Delicious Starters were laid out on our table when we reached. Main course was just about ok. We had a cozy table for two close to centre stage to watch the lively entertainment program. Photographer came around and asked if we wanted our photos. The albums were not forced on to us. U could spend time on the upper decks inbetween. The cruise was not overcrowded. Overall a very memorable evening!

Fantastic experience, and Osmar was an unbelievable waiter that just made our experience that much more valuable. Such a great service! Great food as well. On board you’ll find a professional photographer that at the end of the cruise will leave you a photo album of your portrait for an extra cost. The entertainment is good, but the best is the view from up top. Loved it
