It was a beautiful evening on the water, the boat is excellent
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.
Martin B.
Great tour with Göckan and the rest of the crew! You really get to learn a lot about the city and with great views. It's also a nice little escape from the busy city for a few hours where you can reIax with the sea air. I would definitely do this tour again if I come back to Istanbul!
Maria R.
I really enjoyed the Bosphorus yacht tour! The guide was very knowledgeable and shared interesting information throughout the trip. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the snacks served were very delicious. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I would definitely recommend.

Small boat with just 30 people inside. sweets tea and fruits! Very kind tripulation. Excellent cruise
Faaiz B.
Amazing experience and the snacks provided were absolutely delicious. Best tour of the Bosphorus that is available.

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.
Phoenix S.
I went on the boat with a terrible migraine and ended up getting seasick. Gökhan, Nursah and Can took such good care of me. I wish that I had been fit enough to enjoy the snacks and views that the tour offered.
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.
Shirley D.
A really good cruise with a small group which allowed everyone to a good choice for seating. Although, the snacks that was served was nice, I would say served as a taster portion and the fruit plater was 3 small pieces of a peach. The service throughout was friendly. Do keep checking your messages from tour/curise ompany as we received a message 2 hours before our booked time to say where to meet which was a different part of the port which wS futher away to what our original booking stated. This was okay for us as we had the flexibility in our day to accept the change. All in all, we would definitely recommend this cruise.
Marvin G.
Excellent service and attention to detail. The team helped us plan everything perfectly. Istanbul from the water is a completely new perspective.
Caleb D.
They do what they promise in the description. It was a very nice experience and a pleasant time on the ship. You got to see the city of Istanbul from various angles including the sunset and the golden horn. At the End you got to hear the Muezzins of all mosques while cruising along the Galata bridge. Perfect Timing! But better be early! They don't have much time for docking!
Vanessa W.

Exceed ours expectations . It was an amazing cruise . We really appreciated and recomended!! It was worth!!!
Oskar N.
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.
Gunel G.
All liked it. Time flew by unnoticed. Excellent dinner. Good English speaking guide. Everything was at a high level.
Aysun B.
Amazing katamaran style yacht, with an attentive crew and great guide. We enjoyed two hours of amazing views of the Bosphorus with a historical overview being narrated by our experienced guide. We enjoyed a good fish and meat dinner at sunset while admiring the eclectic beauty of private mansions along the banks of the Straight. We were also able to connect our phone to a big Bluetooth speaker so that we could have our very own soundtrack for this private cruise. I definitely recommend!
Sean L.
We had a wonderful time with Golden City Tours on this sunset cruise. The boat was clean and comfortable. The crew was very accommodating and welcoming. Along the way, a guide pointed out landmarks and places of interest. He gave historical facts and context also. The tour was great. I highly recommend it.
Patricia G.
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.
Helen V.
Our group in the yacht was quite small. So a lot of space to move around and plenty of photo opportunities. Our guide is excellent, giving us very good details of the sights along the way. Overall, the cruise is very comfortable.
