Best Bosphorus Tour - Very well organized and good communication. Excellent service from the moment you make the booking to the moment you step off the boat.
Guide was very knowledgeable and spoke multiple languages and was happy to answer any questions.
Nice variety of food (fruit, nuts, cheeses) and drinks provided that are included with ticket price.
Timing of tour was perfect and we spent approximately 2.5 hrs on the sea with lots of of interesting things noted by the guide throughout.
Definitely worth the price and would highly recommend for any looking to do Bosphorus tour by boat!

Bosphorus sunset cruise - Went with a friend, we both really enjoyed it! The cruise lasts for over 2 hours, an hour on each side of Istanbul. The staff were very sweet and offered us food and drink, really took care of us. If you want a cruise that’s a lot more private with fewer people, this is the one to go for. The sunset was in the second half of the cruise and it was beautiful, you don’t wanna miss it. Definitely recommend!
