For family trips of three - I used it for a family trip of three from Japan! We are very pleased with the attentive service, refreshments and easy-to-listen English guided tour. It was more than price.

Comfortable in bad weather - Seeing Istanbul from the water is a different vantage point than the land. You get a better understanding of the Strait and how important it has been for Turkey from an economic perspective. Learning how the Strait has been controlled so that taxes can be collected.
