Great cruise in the Bosphorus - We did the sunset trip on the Bosphorus and it was amazing. The route allowed us to see different parts of Istanbul on both the european and asian sides. The best part was the sunset with Istanbul in the background. The staff were very welcoming and professional. It was easy to book and to find.

A wonderful experience! - We are a family of 4 and I have an autistic adult daughter with me. It is a Mega Yatch, obviously it is big and you will not feel the boat bouncing if there is choppy wave. Exactly what I was looking for my daughter to experience. We took the sunset cruise with snack. It was well managed. They send me a Whatsapp to remind of the time and give us the exact location. It was an easy process to embark the boat and everything went well. The drink and snack were send to our table and we have a great time listening to the commentator and enjoying the view. 👌🏼👍🏼

5/5 - I did book this tour thru booking.com with other operators offering the same experience and price point. Looking at various reviews, i have set low expectations. Delays, poor communication and so-so staff were all you can see in other reviews. But not with this particular operator. To start, we were asked to come almost an hour earlier than the set time. The pier is at Kabatas, very accesible by Tram. I said why not, since the weather is nice and warm might as well enjoy the bay area and sit while waiting. They communicated thru watsapp which i find handy. So be sure u have your watsapp. We sailed 15mins on, and the tour went off. We came back to the docking area bec of late german tourist but looking at the bright side, that will make us enjoy the cruise a little bit longer. The tour guide was fun and entertaining throughout the tour. We were sitting/laying infront of the yatch so we're having a full view of the Bosphorus with great sunset. Drinks includes some lemonade and orange juice, with generous peanuts cookies and baklava. We sailed for almost 3hours, and was just having great time relaxing and enjoying the views. I suppose its a plus we have the yatch owner as the sailor. So go ahead and book this tour. The name of our guide is Onur. We will defo be back to Istanbul again, and will book the same cruise again

Experience I wouldn't do again - I state that we took the cruise with audio guide at sunset. Positive side: - very kind and very friendly staff - audio guide - route Downsides - the external part all complete immediately - inside very poor view due to transparent plastic sheets to shelter from the air - confusion and a lot of noise Either Roy to live to stay out or the outing of reduced to an “anonymous” tour with foreclosed view.

A bit crowded cruise - If you are comfortable with 250+ people crowding the deck to take sunset pics, this tour will suit you. We went on a weekend and it was crowded with too many chairs placed on side of deck meant was walking. The servers did their best to serve us cold drinks and snacks. The roll served was too oily. If you prefer a smaller crowd and a bit of privacy, this tour is not for you.
