A perfect night - We had a lovely meal and watched a fun Turkish show while sailing. The view of Istanbul at night was stunning. A relaxing and enjoyable evening.Passing iconic sites on the water made it even more memorable.

An incredible evening - What an incredible evening! The dinner cruise offered a fantastic view of Istanbul from the water, and the food was amazing – from mezes to kebabs. The highlight, though, was the Turkish show with talented dancers and musicians. It’s the perfect mix of culture and relaxation.

if you're 60 and British you'll love it....if not, pass - I'm not the intended crowd, maybe better for big tour groups of older individuals. food was good but dancing performances was a bit underwhelming and I thought there would be more to the show, like a narrative or an introduction to what the dances were and the historical relevance. I think I made the mistake of trusting the high ratings but I've come to the conclusion that dinner cruises are boring if you're not over 50. if you're staying in a nearby hotel and need something to do for the night, it's probably worth it but I was staying on the Asian side and did not qualify for pickup so I had to also get there myself. best for large, older tour groups, maybe older couples.
