Fantastic trip on luxury boat - We had a great time on the boat. We were lucky and got to see the most beautiful pink sunset over Istanbul. We also really liked the tour guide, he told us the most interesting facts about the places. The service was very good, they treated us to sweets, fruits and lemonades. The staff was very friendly, they handed out blankets, took photos and did everything for our comfort. Thanks to dear Ezgi, who even helped us get to the hotel after the trip!

Unforgettable moments - The crew was amazing providing all the comfort that you need. From snacks and drinks all along the way to comfy blankets when the wind starts blowing. Sarkan (the guide) has got an immense knowledge and he is very friendly. Erdal is unstoppable on his care to check if you are alright or need something. A great experience for everyone and more so for the sunset lovers.
