Customer Reviews of Tours in Istanbul

Everything went great, a wonderful walk, for those who don't like noise and crowds. Excellent service, pleasant snacks. Thanks guys, I'll recommend it.

I really enjoyed the tour! and the views and the yacht and the care.

Everything was great. The yacht is great! During the walk, the views were amazing. The staff did an excellent job. We returned with a sea of beautiful photos and impressions.

Excellent organization - the guys described the meeting place on the embankment in detail, picked us up, put us on the yacht without delay. The yacht is comfortable and comfortable, and you can stay anywhere - inside, in the control room above, even on the bow. They were treated to fruits, nuts, coffee, and rolls. It's an interesting walk, it's very beautiful around, my wife and daughter and I brought a lot of cool photos and videos with us. The guys are very friendly, and the places are very beautiful. I recommend it, especially in good weather.

Overall, the impressions from the walk are positive - the views are wonderful, the staff is attentive, there are no questions about the stated snacks and drinks. One of the nuances: it was suggested to pre-install the audio guide on the phone (download the application), but since there was no Internet, nothing could be listened to on the spot. The best views are below, on the open part of the yacht, where you can feel the Bosporus most fully. It was warmer on the upper part, soft windows were installed there, but the impressions were also appropriate.

Istanbul at sunset is a fairy tale!!!! It's not a long, very easy and enjoyable tour. We just swam, admired the views, ate fruits, nuts, snacks. We had a very pleasant time, and then admired the sunset and Istanbul in the evening lights.

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.

I really enjoyed the tour. Nice yacht. The Azan presenter is a very pleasant, friendly young man. The captains were also on top. It got cool, and they offered blankets. Treats- sliced fruit, buns, nuts- delicious, beautifully set. Azan courted me, offered me tea and coffee, and the language barrier didn't even bother me. Great music, beautiful views. I was with my daughter for 18 years, she was delighted.Thanks for the lovely walk.

It was an extraordinary journey at sunset! Incredible impressions that we received and discussed the next day, how fantastically beautiful it was! I will remember this magnificent painting for a long time. Excellent service on board. I recommend it from the bottom of my heart!

The price is excellent, the yacht is comfortable, you can take beautiful photos, you are greeted in a separate place, the yacht immediately sails and immediately departs, thank you very much for the organization and impressions

Review from my mom) "Istanbul! We fell in love with you! To your embankments, cafes, seagulls and cats. To your streets, architecture, and people! And one of the most vivid and unforgettable experiences was a yacht trip. Very friendly and helpful team! We were pleasantly surprised- we were treated, photographed, and given the opportunity to see the sunset! Istanbul, we are not saying goodbye, we are saying goodbye!!!"

It's not the first time I've been swimming with the guys, great organization and stunning views both in winter and summer, special thanks for swimming as close as possible to the maiden tower, I highly recommend it.

The yacht was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. The walk was very pleasant, and the staff at the reception and during breakfast were rated 5 stars.

The breakfast was very tasty and varied. It's also a great trip and pleasant service.

Everything is just wonderful! Excellent service and very tasty and satisfying food! I highly recommend it!v

We had a delicious breakfast/brunch and a guided tour of the Bosphorus. There is a lot of food, and the staff is very pleasant.

If you want to go on a cruise, I 100% recommend this option! It was magical, and the fact that we were in a limited group made the trip even better! The guide was incredibly helpful, and the breakfast was amazing!

It can hardly be called an excursion. There was no tourist information. Rather, it was a trip along the Bosphorus, in which we had a very nutritious breakfast, a pleasant atmosphere, and excellent musical accompaniment. All the team members are very friendly. If you have free time in Istanbul, I recommend you to visit.

I really liked the breakfast on the Bosphorus, the friendly team , all the amenities, a round-trip transfer was provided. everything was very punctual, the breakfast was incomparable , not limited in the literal sense, the views are gorgeous, live music , the only wish , the voiceover of iconic places on the coast so that we know what we see . Thank you so much for the positive emotions.

We were very satisfied with everything. We were picked up from the meeting point and brought back at the appointed time.

The guide met us and accompanied us throughout the tour! It was very pleasant, he was interested in how we were doing and made sure that we were always well provided for! I will be happy to come again!

We had a wonderful cruise. On the manager’s advice, we purchased a VIP table and were very satisfied. There was a beautiful view of night Istanbul outside the window, and the evening program was right in front of our eyes. Everything was very well organized for a fun evening.

Overall, the evening was a success. We were surprised that the program was scheduled to start at 8:00 PM, but the ship actually departed at 9:00 PM. We were supposed to be picked up at 7:30 PM, but they came at 8:10 PM. Throughout that time, the tour organizers stayed in touch with us via WhatsApp. Initially, we had booked the trip for January 4, 2026, but closer to the evening we were informed about a possible cancellation due to sea waves, with the option to cancel or reschedule for the next day. We chose to reschedule. On the ship, everything went well: service and show program. We didn’t like that only couples were seated at separate tables, while the rest of us — including us — were placed at long tables, sitting shoulder to shoulder with strangers, although some people might actually enjoy that. The appetizers were served in small dome-shaped portions arranged on a plate, along with a vegetable salad in a separate bowl. My family didn’t like the meat and chicken kebabs, but my sea bass was delicious. The evening ended with a mini disco featuring an energetic saxophonist. Besides him, we were entertained with national and ballroom dances, and a dervish demonstrated his art. Thank you.

What incredible delight I experienced from the Bosphorus cruise! It is one of the most beautiful places in magnificent Istanbul 😍 It was my first time traveling alone, and I decided to book this excursion on the Sputnik website (also for the first time) — and I didn’t regret it at all! The booking process was very easy and convenient, and the confirmation came almost immediately. The ticket was sent to my email, which was very convenient. The email also provided detailed instructions on how to get to the meeting point. I would like to express special thanks to the guide through whom I booked the tour. I was very nervous about traveling completely alone, but I immediately relaxed and felt safe thanks to the high professionalism of my guide. When I boarded the ship, I felt unreal excitement! I was escorted to my table right by the stage 🤩 While other guests were taking their seats, a girl was playing the violin in the background 🥹 Appetizers and drinks were offered right away. When the ship left the pier, an incredible show began! Live music, live performances by a talented singer in different languages! I was pleasantly amazed! There were also various dance performances, artist shows, a saxophone performance — I even danced! The staff was very attentive; seeing that I was alone, they invited me to the upper deck and showed me the magnificent view of the Bosphorus and the famous bridge 😍 I truly immersed myself in a Turkish fairy tale! I definitely recommend the Bosphorus cr...

The excursion was excellent! The ship was large, new, and beautiful. By the time we were invited to our table, the appetizers had already been served. For the main course, we could choose fish, meat, or chicken. The sea bass was very tasty. There was also a performance and a disco at the end. Very fun and interesting. Definitely worth the money 100%. If you go directly to the pier, the price will be higher than booking here.

Great dances by wonderful young Turkish dancers and a nice disco at the end of the tour for those who wanted to dance. Everything was at a high level. Many thanks to the organizers.

An amazing evening with wonderwul musical accompaniment. Stunning views of night Istanbul from the ship’s deck. At our request, everything was specially arranged for us (it was my husband’s birthday). Huge thanks to the organizers and performers!

We absolutely loved everything — the food was delicious, the views were beautiful, and the show program was fantastic! There was dancing and live saxophone music. There is a full restaurant on board. The cruise lasted about 2.5 hours.

It was a good tour. Not tedious. Even more like just a transfer than an excursion. We saw the Princes' Islands and had a walk through them. Have a nice lunch.

Good organization, beautiful views, in my opinion, not very well allocated time, the largest island needs more time. There was not enough information.

Thanks for the trip to the Princes' Islands! Everything went well and comfortably!

An interesting trip for those who want to take a break from the noisy, vibrant Istanbul. The islands have a quiet, measured life, lots of seals and seagulls. Each island is interesting in its own way. We had 45-60 minutes to explore each island, which was quite enough. There were no problems with the transfer, they were picked up from the hotel on time, ferry crossing, and return. Guides accompanied each stage, explained, and answered questions. Overall, the tour is very good, but I would recommend it to those who have already seen almost everything in Istanbul.

A lot of interesting things were picked up and brought from the hotel. We saw 3 islands. Very beautiful. The team was great. We were entertained and fed on the ship. I RECOMMEND IT!

I would like to note that this is not a full-fledged tour, but rather an organized transfer. We read the reviews and expected exactly this, so we were ready and satisfied. The road is very scenic, and every island is charming. I want to walk, explore the quiet streets and soak up the tranquility of the place itself. Many complained that they didn't give enough time on small islands, but in my opinion it was just the right time for a sightseeing tour. The lunch was simple, but satisfying enough.

Minus one thing, there was little time for walking on the first island (only an hour and a half). We need more time!!

A quiet and cozy place to relax your soul, contrasts with the hustle and bustle of Istanbul.

Overall, the tour was not bad, beautiful views, friendly guide. But for such a price, you shouldn't expect much from this tour. In fact, you are traveling on a ferry with a huge number of strangers, as I understand it, they were also people with a tour, but from different parts of the world. The description of the tour on the website is incomplete, as it turned out, there was an opportunity to swim in the sea, which we did not know about. The lunch included in the price is quite good, but the simplest. Overall, I liked it, but only because of the beauty around it, it overshadowed all the shortcomings of this trip.

A great island tour, a very competent and attentive guide. Stunning nature, beautiful views. Be sure to take an electric bus ride to the highest point on the big island and then there will be a gradual descent on foot with a guide who will show and tell you many interesting facts about the island and its inhabitants.

It is very pleasant to walk on the islands, beautiful houses, lots of flowers and greenery. I wish they had given me more time to go to a small island, because there is an equipped sandy beach right by the pier, but there was little time to relax there. The lunch is hearty. We were pleased with the guides on the ship, entertained from the bottom of our hearts.

The boat trip is pretty good, but 3 hours of free time on the island is not enough for the beach, and there is a lot for walking around the island. There are no special excursions! They brought it , showed it, and took it away!

This was a nice sunset cruise with narrations of the scenery and buildings that we saw along the way. For myself the mosques and minarets in the sunset was worth the trip alone. I got some amazing pictures on this tour, and also had some fresh in season fruit and some amazing baklava.

Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff, a beautiful evening with a view of the Bosphorus. Everything is enchanting

Unique experience with tasty snacks and knowledgeable explanations.

The cruise was amazing, we saw the beautiful parts of Istanbul from sea side wich you cannot see and experience from the groubd. The tour guide and all staff were very kind and welcoming. This is something you need to do if you want to experience the best of Istanbul.

Great way to spend 2 1/2 hours during our first trip to Istanbul. There were 24 guests on the boat but there was room to spread out and the staff gave everyone individual attention. Beautiful sightseeing of both sides of Istanbul from the river. Snacks (fruit, nuts, sweets) were included in the price of the ticket. Drinks were extra. Highly recommend

Just one word - AMAZING!!!! This is a MUST HAVE experience if you are visiting Istanbul. Watching the sunset at the Bosphorus was definitely one of the key highlights of my trip. The tour was well organized, the guide explained all the places we passed by during the cruise. It did get very cold but, thankfully the team offered us blankets and tea. ;)

My husband and I and our 2 teenagers took a sunset cruise down the Bosporus. Booking online was easy, we were sent the details of where to meet by WhatsApp and the boat was as described. There were a total of around 30 people on the cruise. On board we were provided with water, orange juice and some snacks including baklava, which was very nice. You could also buy alcoholic drinks. The cruise was a great way to see many of the key sights along the river and helped us get our bearings. We enjoyed ourselves and would highly recommend the trip!

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

This is really the perfekt way to edplorer Istanbul beautiful city. The yacht and the stuff and after all this program is in best category. We are very enjoyed and thank you very much again.

An amazing experience to do in istambul!!! I fully recommended ! Everything was amazing

This would be a great cruise if you are a smoker, which I am not.. There is no designated smoking area and lots of people were smoking all over the ship, upwind from other passengers. In fact, I felt like I had smoke in my face the whole time, no matter where I moved. Even the captain and crew smoked unabatedly upwind from guests. This pretty much ruined the beauty of the experience. Otherwise the information given, and music played was fine. The food seemed okay, but I lost my appetite from all the smoking. Seriously, if you are going to allow smoking, have a designated area at the back of the boat.

Amazing experience and the snacks provided were absolutely delicious. Best tour of the Bosphorus that is available.

Trust me this is the cheapest private (not government boat) you can find in Istanbul 2 hours on bosphorus with tea or coffee all for free? Wow!

For the price — top-notch. Free tea/coffee on board, beautiful views.

A very nice tour on a beautiful, comfortable boat at a pleasant price. It allowed us to enjoy the sea scenery and views of magnificent local landmarks. I would happily go again.

For the price, the cruise along the strait is more than justified!

Excellent tour, spacious boat, caring staff — there are guides speaking all popular languages. As soon as I stumbled in English, They served delicious tea during the trip. I will recommend it.

Excellent tour, great weather. The audio guide is a bit “light,” but it comes with a map marking each site linked to an audio track.

We really enjoyed the tour! Everything was very convenient, they explained and helped with everything. A very beautiful two-deck yacht with several areas (open and enclosed). There is tea, coffee, and food. Overall 10/10. Plus, you sail along both the European and Asian sides of Turkey, which allows you to see almost all of Istanbul)))

A very cool tour, easy to understand in any language with the help of the audio guide. We had a very pleasant experience!

A beautiful golden sunset over the Bosphorus! We managed to take many amazing photos. The audio guide was simple and clear. The crew worked flawlessly.

We enjoyed the boat trip. The boat has two decks: open and enclosed. Free hot tea and coffee were offered. The audio guide was available in several languages.

Beautiful views, periodically accompanied by commentary (you can also download the audio guide to your phone via the boat’s Wi-Fi) in various languages. On the first deck there are hot drinks (tea, coffee) included in the ticket price, and snacks and instant noodles are sold as well. A good tour, . I recommend visiting 👍

For a pleasant price we got a comfortable boat with an open deck and the opportunity to admire the sights from the bow. The audio guide doesn’t provide a lot of information, but it’s enough to understand what is located where. It would be nice to have a continuous playback option instead of switching from point to point on the website each time. We went on a rainy day and unfortunately couldn’t sit on the upper deck because all the seats were wet and there was no canopy. However, we could drink hot tea for free on the lower deck. Overall, it’s a good option to see the shores of Istanbul at an affordable price and learn something new. Honestly, we didn’t listen to everything — we were just enjoying the moment.

Riham has been incredibly helpful since the very beginning of our cruise. She guided us and assisted with everything we needed. The experience on the ship has been amazing, we especially loved the night show with the professional dancers and the delicious food. Everything was perfect, and we truly enjoyed our time on board!

Very nice tour, good food & music. Thanks to Reham for the guide. ❤️

Really funny night. The service was incredible and our waiter Hasam was a legend!

amazing service and really took care of our family. shout oht to cruise members especially chef ahmet. recommended!!

It was the best time we had in Istanbul!! the driver picked us up on time from our hotel. On the ship everyone of the stuff was very helpful and kind. we enjoyed a full menu with great tastes and an amazing show with great dancers. we highly recommend it!!

We joined the dinner cruise as a group of 12 and honestly had an amazing night. Everything was organized well from start to finish. The service was fast, friendly, and very attentive to our group. The dance performances were fun and energetic, and the live music created a great atmosphere throughout the night. The best part was definitely the Bosphorus view — seeing Istanbul lit up at night from the water was truly beautiful and made the whole experience unforgettable. Our entire group enjoyed it and we had a great time together. Overall, it was a wonderful experience with good food, great entertainment, and fantastic views. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Istanbul

It was a nice tour with very good guys we could also buy an album with photos, we loved it and we took it

Our waiter was so generous, kind and friendly. Very professional and thoughtful. Thank you so much for making this experience so special!

we really like the transport that took us to cruise, we love the food and performance we have a lovely evening

Everything was perfect, we really enjoyed our trip! We recommend to everyone ❤️

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

Wonderful evening with Bosphorus view, dinner and passionate Turkish music and dances :)

I highly recommend this tour! It match the description. Our guide Can gave good information, and his English was very good. The boat was clean and the food was great. The time was perfect to watch sunset.

Great way to start off a vacation in Istanbul. You get to see different points of interest along both sides of the bosphorus. The tour is done by an actual person, not a recording. There was enough room to sit comfortably and move around. The hosts were very accommodating, providing plenty of snacks and drinks. We even got to see a pod of dolphins. A beautiful view of the sunset. Definitely worth the time and money.

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.

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!

Delightful evening, perfectly timed to see the sights with the sun up and to watch the sun set and turn the old city orange.

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!

The tours was terrific and I would highly recommend it! The crew and Jello were so attentive and kind and served us with delicious treats cheerfully! We had a bowl of nuts each a selection of sweet and savoury baked goods a little selection of fruit and tea. We opted to buy a glass of wine and beer which were normal prices. Jello gave a great commentary and with humour ( ask about Galata Tower!) . We learnt a number of new things. The length of the trip was great. We did the sunset tour and they waited near the end so we could see Istanbul bathed in a golden coat. Great photo opportunities. The yacht was very comfortable. They gave us blankets in case we got cold. There was plenty of room for great snapshots from different angles. There is a lot of building work around that area. They gave great directions where to meet but we missed the sentence that said look on the other page and saw the meeting place was marked on a map. I would highly recommend this trip.

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).

The cruise was very well organized. The team made sure I didn’t miss the trip — they even called to confirm everything, which I really appreciated. The tour itself was smooth and relaxing, with beautiful views and a comfortable atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a pleasant and stress-free experience!

We had an incredible yacht experience, and a big part of that was thanks to Topa Bozmose. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, from her warm hospitality to her attention to detail throughout the trip. Her professionalism, friendly attitude, and genuine care truly elevated the entire experience. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a memorable and well-taken-care-of yacht experience!

I really enjoyed seeing Istanbul from the Bosphorus and the boat and food were very good. The audio guide buffered and was quite frustrating so I decided just to enjoy the view and check my Google maps if I needed to know what I was looking at. It was a bit chilly so we were given blankets which was nice. k

Incredible. The boat is small, and we were lucky that there were only 5 people on the trip. We had the whole of the front of the boat to ourselves (so romantic)! Drinks and snacks are provided. The staff are friendly, especially the lady, I forgot her name 😭

I had a wonderful experience on the Bosphorus yacht cruise in Istanbul. Despite a flight delay, the team kindly rescheduled me for another day, which I deeply appreciated. The yacht was beautiful, the views were stunning, and the two hours passed effortlessly. The highlight was our guide, Tugba — full of warmth, energy, and kindness. She provided us with tea and snacks, took amazing photos, and ensured everyone felt comfortable and cared for. Her enthusiasm made the journey truly special. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone wanting to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the Bosphorus in the most memorable way.

We really enjoyed the sunset cruise. Our lovely guide Tuba is superb. She took very good care of us during the 2 hours trip. She’s also a fantastic photographer. We would definitely recommend this trip to our friends.

Suma was very helpful onboard keeping everybody well fed and watered, and making sure the app with audio guide worked for us. Thank you Suma 😊

GREAT ACTIVITY, loved it they don’t fill up the boat too much and the staff are great. We even spotted dolphins. Your definitely thinking if this is worth it or go for the normal ferry, did both and do this honestly the best thing we did in Istanbul the pictures say it all!

I really enjoyed this trip! It was the best cruise I’ve ever had in Istanbul😍 totally recommend!!

I had the pleasure of taking the Bosphorus Sunset Cruise in Istanbul, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The yacht tour provided stunning views, from the Old Town to Dolmabahce Palace and Maiden Tower — absolutely breathtaking. The service was exceptional, with fresh snacks, fruits, and drinks provided throughout the journey. A special thank you to Tugba, our guide, whose warmth, energy, and professionalism made the cruise even more enjoyable. She took amazing photos, ensured we were all comfortable, and shared interesting insights about the sights along the Bosphorus. Her kindness and enthusiasm really stood out and added a personal touch to the experience. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Istanbul. It’s a perfect way to see the city’s splendor from the water while enjoying great service and a relaxing atmosphere. 5/5 stars!

I took a Bosphorus Sunset Cruise in Istanbul today, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. The service was excellent and highly professional from the moment of boarding to the time we returned. We were offered fresh fruits, snacks, and drinks everything was perfect. A special mention to Tuba, whose attention and kindness were exceptional. She is a highly competent professional who made the entire experience truly unforgettable. Thank you so much, Tuba! I’ll definitely recommend this sunset cruise to all my friends when they visit Istanbul.

Everything was excellent organized, full information before the trip, on time , very valuable price . Highly recommended!!

This was an amazing cruise! Our tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The views were breathtaking and it was fun to visit the Asian side of Istanbul. It was a great way to experience Istsanbul's vibe.This was one of our main highlights in Istanbul. LOVE IT. ❤️

You can see the most important historical sites during the crous, from another side!

the way the guide explained us the facts related tonfhe historical places. Well prepared and attentive tó guests

Amzing boat trip along the bosphorus! Impressive guides who spoke multiple languages.

Comfortable, easy to find, good instructions from the start . Well worth the money. Highly recommended. We’re definitely going again.

This was a fun trip. We didn't get any food, just tea, so I'd recommend bringing some on board. There's a one hour stop at a leather shop on the Asian side where my friends and I all bought leather jackets. There's probably a deal between guide and shop, but feel free to go somewhere else if you want. We got some quick food at a coffee shop before going back on board. For $4 it was a good trip. The gps for pickup was in the right spot

Great information shared by the guide and a very comfortable ride, thank you

Rauf was so kind directing us where to find meeting point. We were a bit late but they waited for us. The trip was very informative even if its cold winter inside the boat is warm and can purchase food and hot drinks!

Good -as advertised it was a good cruise touring along the coast of European side and then going to the Asian side and the commentary/guide talking palaces in building was good

Not sure how they offer the service at the price they do. Was very pleased with the day out. Excellent value for money.

It was an amazing tour. The tour guide is so knowledgeable about the area. He took everyone along making the tour memorable. The entire team were so helpful in making sure everyone one enjoyed their tour. Would recommend them if you want to enjoy your money’s worth.

Our tour guide Kaeir was very cool, telling us all about the historical landmarks and stories. It is also low season so the entire yacht had only about 10 people. Plenty of tea, cookies and fruit.

We’d like to share our impressions of the trip — it was simply amazing! 🤩 We booked the tour online, which allowed us to save almost half the price compared to buying the same tour from the shore. I went on both tours just a few days apart, so I can compare them. Our trip was on a comfortable yacht, with only 8 people in the group (probably because it’s not the high season in December). The guide met us exactly at the scheduled time. The wonderful Hasan offered snacks — nuts, cookies, fruit, tea… He literally said: “Dear guests, relax, lie down, dance, enjoy yourselves.” 😊😊 The audio guide told us about the sights. I highly recommend the time slot we chose — 16:15. This way, during the trip you can see magnificent Istanbul in sunlight, at sunset, and when the city lights come on at night. An unforgettable experience! ❤️

Amazing Bosphorus boat tour! Hassan was an incredibly kind and attentive guide, making everyone feel very welcome and cared for, always on top of every detail. The cruise itself was exceptional, with beautiful views and a very relaxed atmosphere. Honestly, the price was too low for such a great experience – outstanding value and highly recommended!

Best option with food and ground floor front deck seats is best place to enjoy couldn't recommend more

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

It was a top experience! They gave us snacks and the staff were amazing! I recommend it!

The guide was very kind and the rest of the staff as well. The small group size was optimal for seeing the sites. Overall a great experience and I highly recommend.

It was a amazing journey, Hospitality in the yacht was good. Value for money. Mr. Yasir and team did a great job. Appreciated.

Smooth sailing from Kabatas to Rumeli Castle and back. I booked just a few hours before, no problem. There were about 20 people in total and still plenty of room. Most of the sites you'll see and have explained are on the European side. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The snacks (nuts and fruit) plus tea were filling. The value for the price is worth it.

Well spent money! The guide and crew were very friendly and informative. Great views during sunset. Highly recommended!

Wonderful activity! It was SO worth the price and more- and Kadir was an excellent guide! This was the highlight of our trip

The overall cruise experience was awesome, travelled about an hour each way, got to see a different view of the major buildings, voice over (english) would speak a little about each building as we got close to it. Free tea and coffee on the boat, food was offered too but I didnt eat anything. I saw other people have drinks too. There was seating inside and outside, 3 levels for the outside and 2 for the inside with good views wherever you were seated. It was a good experience, if you are in Istanbul for a short time or want to get your bearings.

The boat and the staff were absolutely incredible! Everything was perfectly organized, and the audio descriptions were fantastic—they really brought everything we were seeing to life. The views of the Bosporus and Istanbul were breathtaking, making the entire experience unforgettable. We loved every minute of it and highly, highly recommend it! 🌟🚤

I really enjoyed this boat trip even though it was quite cloudy. Staff was very friendly and the audio guide was very informative. Initially we missed our original booking due to Istanbul traffic (dont take the buses), but we were offered to go the next day withouth any extra charge so special thanks for that and being flexible.

Great sunset tour - totally worth it ! Try to go early so you get the best seats on the boat. seat on left hand side (facing forward) as shore and attractions are on that side.

It was amazing! Simply worth every penny. I would recommend it to anyone. We did not order any food but we had the hot drinks. The service was 10/10. The view is magnificent and definitely worth the price. Bring a jacket and scarf as it gets chilly in the deck. There is also an indoor sitting area if you wish to keep yourself warm. The view was very nice. Instructions were clear too.

The boat was very nice, nice atmosphere start was very polite and helpful, overall great experience!

The boat tour was incredible! The attention was excellent, and the explanation throughout the trip was very clear and informative. Highly recommended!

A brilliant cruise. 2 hours to see all the main sights. We picked with dinner and that was a great decision. There were 3 courses and all high quality food with generous portions. Plenty of included drinks and a very friendly waiter.

First of all, the activity provider was very accommodating thanks to Fatih. We missed the time, but he offered us to do it the next day at no extra cost. The cruise itself focused on the architecture on both the European and Asian sides of the Bosphorus. It was a nice touch.

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.

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!

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.

Great value for money, excellent guide, overall good experience! Saw part of Istanbul you can’t see on land - was great!

I’m so glad we booked this tour! It’s a great way to orient yourself to Istanbul and enjoy going to the Asian side. Lots of snacks!

Good value cruise with small number of guests. Covers most of the key sights along the Bosphorus. Can be a little windy so be prepared, particularly in the spring months when things are a little cooler. Very informative commentary.

A great experience from start to finish. John was at the port when we got off the lcruise ship and we took a short ride to the pier and got on the yacht. A beautiful 2 1/2 hour ride up and down the Bosphorous including a stop in Asia would highly recommend. Great communication with the company.

Luxurious yacht, snacks and tea after embarking, tour guide commentary for coastal landmarks, enjoyable landing and side trip to yogurt cafe in Asia, then smooth sailing back to Europe. Great way to experience the beauty of Istanbul and it’s unique waterway.

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.

We are blown away! It was a fantastic trip, well organized and generous with tea, coffee, sandwich, water, apple slices, nuts, Turkish delights! Beautiful yatch experience. Commentary was informative and humorous. Highly recommend

We had just arrived the night before. And decided to make this apart of day after breakfast and a walk. And it was truly beautiful.

Greit value for the money.Very frendly personal The guid profesional. Thanks for this nice .exoerience

It is a 2 hour tour on both sides of the Bosphorus (the European and the Asian ones) with a live guide showing the most important points of interest. There was only a small group of people and we had a half an hour stop on the Asian side where we got the chance to taste some local delicious yoghurt. Our guide, Murat, was excellent, giving us the right amount of information and anecdotal facts so as to make the tour interesting but not overwhelming. All staff on board were very polite and helpful. Highly recommended!

"There were three vessels pull into the dock at the same time and there was some chaos allocating guests to each boat. This led to a slightly delayed departure and the snacks and drinks all came round more or less immediately, when it would’ve been nicer to have these staggered throughout the trip. The stop on the Asian side was nice, although there was no time to explore other than the immediate port area, which consisted of a busy café and not much else. The commentary from the tour guide was very basic, but the views more than made up for this. If you are lucky with the weather, this is a great trip. "

We really liked the organization of the event, the entertainment program, the dinner, and the festive atmosphere. I'm impressed! Thank you!

It's an amazing adventure across the Bosphorus. Istanbul evening is beautiful. The food was delicious, the service was top-notch. I liked the entertainment program, it was a fascinating sight. We had time to dance a little. I recommend this tour.

В конце показалось слишком затянутым музыкальное шоу, музыка была громкая. Официант обслуживал тоже не очень, приходилось напоминать

Good organization. We were picked up from several hotels by a mini bus. There was a very positive escort who was with us on the ship later, as well as a good driver. Everything is clearly organized on the ship. The ship was beautiful. Very clean, new. The service staff works perfectly, dirty dishes are immediately cleaned, new dishes are quickly brought. They ask about the hot food in advance, you could choose fish, chicken, beef or pasta with sauce. From dessert, everyone received a small cookie in honey for free, but for a fee you could order a fruit plate and cakes. The performance is excellent, the guys are also working 100%. There were national Turkish dances, belly dancing. For the last half hour there was a disco with European and Turkish songs. A photographer works on the ship, in fact, then you decide for yourself whether to take a photo or not. Additional money is needed (but this is optional) for photos, alcohol, dessert. They were taken back to the hotels in an orderly manner. I highly recommend this guided tour.

Everything was really great, a very cheerful atmosphere and delicious food.

I can simply say that I advise everyone, you won't regret it. The advice is to get ready for a photo shoot, the pictures are just great. The entertainment and service are top notch.

The evening was great. They were picked up from the hotel and returned. Delicious dinner, 2 glasses of wine or beer each . The show program is extensive, we danced with the actors. I recommend

Everything is well organized, both the transfer and the event itself on the ship.

Thanks to the organizers! The transfer is clearly timed. The show program and disco are great! The menu is very tasty fish! The Bosphorus at night is beautiful! Be sure to make a wish when you sail under the bridge - to return to Istanbul once more!

It's very tasty, a wonderful program, dancing songs, in general it's a lot of fun, I'm already visiting for the second time, I recommend it.

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)

I liked the program, especially if it's my first time in Istanbul. A very clear organization of the transfer from the hotel and back. I wanted to underestimate the estimate, since the original start time was set at 19-30. A little cunning of the organizers, but the negative impression was smoothed out.

I really enjoyed the trip. A huge yacht that can comfortably accommodate 10 people. Comfortable seats upstairs. We took on four people. Perhaps the most vivid impressions of Istanbul.

We really liked it, the captain is a very cheerful and pleasant person. When we are still in Istanbul, we will definitely return.

Only positive emotions: The yacht is spacious, you can have at least 10 people and no one will be crowded, we saw all the significant sights, well, it's very beautiful. The captain is a cheerful and cool person, plus he gave us all the dishes for drinks and chilled drinks. We advise everyone. Thanks for the tour.

A very beautiful and unforgettable trip on the waves of the Marmara Sea. Unfortunately, time flew by quickly. But we even saw a dolphin.

Captain Metin showed kindness and hospitality on his yacht! He talked about the places we passed by! I treated them to tea and coffee during the tour.

We decided to go for a yacht ride last night. We quickly agreed, we were met. Everything was great, the staff was cheerful and courteous. The yacht is large and comfortable. Everyone liked everything, I recommend it.

The views are amazing. What to say Istanbul is a beautiful city. A walk together, what could be better.

I liked everything very much, both the yacht and the communication.

Excellent service, for a reasonable price, everything went great, I recommend it.

Great weather and a walk, we were lucky and the whole yacht was just for our family.

We are thrilled! The boat is excellent and the guide! We were lucky even with the weather, thank you!!!

All was fine, I really liked everything and I really liked the guide too! Thanks!

I really liked it, thank you! The yacht is good. I liked the transfer too.

Thank you very much! Everything is organized perfectly, very friendly and pleasant people participate. If I find myself in Istanbul again, I will definitely take another yacht trip.

Excellent fast organization. The yacht is gorgeous. Everything is clear on time. I recommend it!

Excellent service and staff on the yacht, the condition of the yacht, snacks.

Everything went perfectly! I was worried that without mobile service during my stay in Istanbul it would be difficult to communicate, but all requests were accommodated, and communication was handled via messaging with both the staff who booked the tour and the driver providing the transfer in a comfortable Mercedes minibus. The excursion itself was very interesting. there was a stop in a scenic spot for a short walk, and we got very close to the Maiden’s Tower. Overall, it was excellent! :)

A heartfelt cruise: wonderful views, tasty lunch, and a pleasant guide! Hotel transfer to and from the pier — what more could carefree tourists want on vacation? Highly recommended; you’ll have a great time!

Thank you for the wonderful experience! Special thanks to the female guides — so kind and friendly!

I enjoyed the excursion; the lunch was delicious, and the guides were wonderful. Thank you 🌷

The tour was very enjoyable. Hotel transfer and organized boarding were well arranged. In December it was a combined tour conducted in two languages — English and another language. The interpreter was very professional and shared even more interesting details and insights about the city. The lunch was tasty and filling enough to keep you satisfied for at least half a day. There was also half an hour of free time to walk around the Asian side of Istanbul. The city views are beautiful both in sunny and cloudy weather. If you have three hours available, I highly recommend this tour. Special thanks to the interpreters — they explain everything clearly and handle organizational matters very well.

Good organization throughout. Well done. The lunch was ordinary, but the soup was tasty. The group was diverse, with many Indians, Arabs, and other Asians. The female guides did a great job.

I enjoyed the views of the city from the Bosphorus. Among the guides, I especially liked Camilla, who explained the landmarks well and interestingly

Everything was very well organized. Thank you for your care and attention!

I liked the excursion. There wasn’t complete clarity about the transfer to the boarding point for the boat. I would have appreciated more precise information about the direct organizer of the excursion on the boat. I will recommend it to everyone.

The excursion was very enjoyable. The organization was highly professional. Many thanks! We recommend it to everyone.

The organization process was good. Well done. The lunch was simple; the soup was tasty. The crowd was diverse, with many Indian, Arab, and other Asian guests. The female guides did a great job.

This excursion fully justifies its cost: beautiful views, good lunch, and a duration that is just right to see the main sights without getting tired.

Very friendly captains – they greeted us, offered tea and coffee, allowed us to play our own music and even steer the yacht. We were very pleased, thank you!

Amazing combination of sightseeing and relaxation. The boat was clean, spacious, and well-maintained. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Istanbul.

A romantic evening on the Bosphorus! The quiet and peaceful atmosphere made it extra special. We’ll cherish this memory forever.

We enjoyed every minute of the yacht tour. The crew was welcoming, and the boat was well-equipped. Perfect combination of leisure and sightseeing.

The views of the historical neighborhoods and mosques were spectacular. Loved cruising past the Egyptian Bazaar and feeling the fresh sea breeze.

Excellent service and attention to detail. The team helped us plan everything perfectly. Istanbul from the water is a completely new perspective.

The cruise was relaxing and very well organized. Loved the flexibility in timing and duration — we could enjoy the ride at our own pace.

Truly unforgettable! Watching the sunset while cruising past Topkapi Palace was magical. Crew was polite, helpful, and ensured everything ran smoothly.

We booked a family yacht cruise, and it exceeded our expectations! The views of Galata Tower and Topkapi Palace were stunning. Crew made everything smooth and easy.

Amazing trip! The yacht was spacious and very comfortable. Seeing Istanbul from the water was unforgettable. Crew was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience! The yacht was cozy and luxurious at the same time. Great for both family outings and a small group of friends.

Perfect way to celebrate a birthday! The yacht was elegant, the crew attentive, and the sunset over the Bosphorus was magical. A truly memorable experience.

Great trip along the Bosphorous! Learned several things about the history of different buildings on both the European and Asian side. Fun crew, great snacks too!

The staff on board were warm and welcoming. The yacht was beautiful and the cruise felt like a little taste luxury.

The staff members were very friendly. Tour guide shared interesting historical information along the way. Refreshments were provided with the option to purchase spirit drinks.

"A wonderful and relaxing Bosphorus morning cruise! The views were stunning, the pace was calm, and the food was excellent—fresh fruit, bagel sandwiches, Turkish delights, and drinks made the experience feel extra special. The guide and crew were informative, funny, and incredibly engaging with everyone on board, including a toddler traveling with another family. The short stop on the Asia side of Istanbul was a highlight, especially getting to try some really good Turkish yogurt. We went as a family with two teenage boys, and they were fully engaged and enjoyed every part of the cruise. Highly recommend this experience for families or anyone wanting a laid-back and memorable way to see Istanbul from the water!"

The tour gave us a much better perspective on greater Istanbul, away from the major tourist spots. The tour included some nice snacks, tea and coffee, which we appreciated as we had missed lunch. The woman who narrated the tour was very good with impeccable English.

Very nice way to see this beautiful city. Away from the large crowds with a different perspective. Nice service on the boat and informative guide.

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.

Very fun knowledge crew. We had a wonderful time with a small group enjoying the views of the Bosphorus

Fascinating look at both the European and Asian sides of the Bosporus with commentary and a short stop on the Asian side to sample some authentic Turkish yogurt. We also enjoyed some small snacks, Turkish tea, & Turkish coffee along the way.

Great tour. The guide was knowledgeable, the staff were friendly, the boat ride was great, they even gave out drinks, blankets, and snacks. Highly recommend.

"This was a very well organised trip, from before we were collected we were informed by WhatsApp of the exact vehicle picking us up (photos too) to how we were treated through the 2.5 hour trip. From stepping onto the boat we were given drinks and snacks and throughout the trip we received more drinks and snacks. Nahed gave commentary throughout the trip and she obviously knows her stuff, very informative and lovely and friendly; all the staff on board were. Highly recommended trip. "

Amazing cruise on a lovely boat with really friendly crew. A much needed break from the crazy crowds in the city centre

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.

Had a great seat at the front, then plenty of opportunity to move around for pics as cruise went on. Nice snacks, friendly crew, just enough narrative about the sights. Best bit was sunset return into Istanbul.

It was a good for information about the architecture and history of the area. However, the motor yatch was a little short on the luxury and it smelled like cats were in residence at night. Having said that the crew was great and kept us plied with snacks and drink.

The guide was very informative, the snacks were nice and very welcome. The cruise provided a very interesting perspective of two continents from the Bosphorus. Good value.

Relaxing , informative,lovely atmosphere, good snacks and beautiful sunset. Kind friendly staff and interesting history.

Lovely views on a beautiful day even in winter it was warm enough inside the boat. Cookies and fruit were nice a guide was informative.

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

Amazing experience and from welcome to see off the team and service is amazing. Nice clean yacht with valuable information throughout the journey.

This was a great experience. Had great communication over WhatsApp on where to meet and when with helpful tips on using public transportation. The tour was enjoyable with a knowledgeable guide and attentive staff. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Over the top service by our tour guide who walked us to the metro afterwards and instructed us on how to get back to our hotel. Great experience!

Great staff, wonderful cruise boat, covered lots of areas, fantastic snacks with tea and lemonades, great experience

The tour guides were very courteous and brought us several snacks and drinks. Also did a great job describing the places we were passing by.

Fantastic small yacht tour. The captain kept the boat close to the shore and you could see all of the sights up close. Great service from the crew and very good snacks
