Thank you SEREMONİ dinner cruise and BOSS driver Mèrth - We came from Romania on holiday with my family. First, while visiting Sultanahmet, boat tours were organized by an agency and we made a reservation. In the evening, a gentleman from our hotel picked up a talking driver. The welcome on the boat was very nice. There were shows that really explained the culture of Turkey and we could not get enough of the view. The boat was finally named BOSS. We found our provided vehicle and he was still smiling. Even though we drank too much alcohol, he never gave my family any disturbing looks. I'm talking about the driver in particular because just when we thought everything was over, Boss continued the fun by playing Romanian songs. Thank you Boss (Merth), we were very pleased. I recommend him.

A must do in Istanbul! - Its a must do thing when you are in Istanbul. Ahmed, the cuise manager and his crew is way too nice. I was in the cruise for 3 hours and not a single second I was bored for. Its full own entertainment from whirling dervishes, folk dance, live orchestra to amazing belly dance. Food is well crafted and delicious!

For two months, you will have lunch - From the mother of Khan and Adam, I used to wear a different type of car, like a black cardigan, wearing a Sultan’s dress, and all of my Sargarm clothes, in a grateful car.
