We absolutely loved our cruise on the Bosphorous on this yacht! It was honestly hard to pick a cruise as there are so many that seem the same- but this one was 10/10. The staff provided snacks, drinks, and even some light throw blankets which was so thoughtful. The cruise was comfortable, enjoyable and was a wonderful way to see more of Istanbul. You will love it!

This was a very enjoyable cruise and a great way to see the city at a wonderful time of day. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to the port. The guide was informative and we felt very well looked after. The tea served as the sun started to set was particularly welcome!

Very nice sunset cruise with snacks! Our guide was very personable and knowledge baby what sights we were sailing by. They were nice enough to give us a ride in their van to our dinner reservation too. Would definitely recommend!

The tour operators were so wonderful. Due to traffic we were a little late getting to the boat and couldn’t seem to find the meeting point. When we called them, they met us in an easy to find spot and walked us to the boat. All of the operators were friendly and knowledgeable. The tour around the river was enhanced by the narrated guide. Wonderful experience and highly recommend.

We were strategic with the weather so I’m sure it was party due to that but this cruise was well organized and the staff were terrific. They provided snacks, a non alcoholic lemonade drink and water - and you could purchase drinks which were about USD10 each. The guide was very knowledgeable and the boat was very comfortable. Couple things to know: hard to get photos if your in the interior- even where there are windows. It is worth it to arrive really early to get a good spot. The cruised goes up one side and then down another so take that into consideration for picture taking. At the end you end up near the Asia side and get good views of the mosques before turning around for the final leg back to shore.

Small group on a decent boat made for a great experience. Food and drink was also good. Sunset over the Bosporous was spectacular
