Best value on the water - We selected the hotel pickup/drop off and the alcoholic option. We did not know what to expect but what a value! We were seated at a table of 8 with a few other couples. The food was decent and all the drinks were included and unlimited (beer, wine, raki, vodka, gin, whisky). The entertainment was non-stop but there were plenty of chances to go enjoy the outside deck. The most important tip is to bring cash for tipping. Some dancers and our great waiter (Mustafa) expect tips and we felt bad we did not have enough cash with us. Highly recommended this excursion any time of the year.

Good night - Great night with good entertainment. I've been coming to Turkey for over 30 years and this was my first time in Istanbul. The boat was very busy which I expected the seating at the tables were very squashed. The food was ok. I expected to have information on the areas we were passing but there was none. When we docked and was getting off the boat the waiter who served us stood at the table asking if we liked his service making us feel uncomfortable and obliged to tip. I have never seen this in Turkey before and was very disappointed.

Crowded Venue with Disappointing Meal and tacky club vibes - Extremely crowded atmosphere, with tables arranged in long rows that left us shoulder-to-shoulder with other guests. The meal was disappointing—just four potato wedges, a small portion of chicken, and a lackluster mini salad. However, the baklava for dessert was enjoyable. The staff was warm and accommodating, though the tipping culture felt uncomfortable, especially with the female dancers. The flashy lights and music made it feel more like a show you’d expect at a club, rather than a cultural experience. Visibility from inside the boat was limited, requiring guests to step outside for views, though doing so risks missing short, one-minute dances inside.

Food good, music painful - Food pretty decent. Disco music following the belly dancer - terrible. I didn’t sign up to listing to almost an hour of headache thumping “music” with loudspeakers every few feet turned on full blast. Even when I took my hearing aid out the noise was still too much to bear. I finally had one of the boat personnel turn down a few speakers but it was still too too loud. Don’t go if you can’t tolerate full blast, repeating beats.

TO AVOID!!! - TO AVOID I don't understand the positives: The food is poor. Photographers take photos without announcing the price beforehand. They took five pictures, put them in a so-called “album” and they ask for 55 euros, while they are taken badly (I even have my eyes closed on some) and not retouched. We had taken the free drinks option, but when I asked for a second drink, the waiter showed his dissatisfaction, and then he ignored me when I called him. In the end, he came to ask for a tip. The show was barely visible because of the crowd, and the spinning dervish dance lasted only two or three minutes.
