Relaxing Boat Ride

Great cruise

Great river views and the amount of time was perfect. The cruise was about 2.5 hours. There were light snacks too which was better than offering bad buffet foods.
Absolutely amazing experience - would highly recommend

What a fantastic experience. Absolutely enjoyed this cruise. We sat at the front of the yacht and had an amazing view of the Bosphoros. The team regularly brought out drinks and snacks, without us having to ask.
Before the cruise even started, the team were in contact with the details on where to meet. When it looked like we were going to be late (because of traffic), they were very understanding and let us know how much time we actually had.
I would definitely recommend this cruise and company
A highlight of Istanbul

This was a highlight of our stay in Istanbul because it allowed us to experience the historical and beautiful Bosporus in a calm and relaxing way. We saw the lovely homes, ports and forts located on both the Asian and European side. Highly recommended.
Perfect experience to see the Bosporus Straight!

Was such a wonderful evening!! The reviews from other people were spot on as the tour was great! The yacht was nice and the time of day- sunset was perfect. Got a little chilly but they had blankets which was nice. The crew was hard working and very nice and served us drinks and snacks and it was wonderful they had alcohol to purchase! We grabbed two beers and two wines and it was great. The tour guide was nice and friendly and fun and gave us a nice amount of information about the different sites. We would have never seen how big Istanbul was without this tour. The Bosporus straight and the land around it is stunning! Totally recommend!
Wonderful sunset cruise

Super nice crew for this sunset yacht tour. Friendly service with a lot to snacks ( fruit, pastries, nuts, chips and etc) and drink. The yacht was clean and plenty of space for only 8 customers ( probably like 5-6 crew members). We had a wonderful time and sunset was so beautiful! The hotel pickup service was great but the Istanbul’s horrible traffic made it very challenging ( feel really and for them). Definitely recommend their sunset cruise for a quiet relaxing trip down the Bosphorus.
Great experience!

This cruise is not an excursion, but it's a perfect way to spend time and enjoy the view of the sunset city.
Actually, I made the proposal to my girlfriend there ) Huge thanks for the team for being so supportive!!! They helped me with all details: best time, location, drinks, music etc.
All in all, this cruise worths every dollar spent!

Super ballade. Equipe très professionnelle. Tout était parfait et super bien organisé Le guide adorable et aimant vraiment son boulot nous a donné des explications claires et hyper intéressantes sur les différents endroits que nous passions.
Nous avons passé un super moment. On recommande vraiment.
Le plus pour nous :
nous nous étions trompé de jour. il sont revenus le lendemain nous chercher à l'hotel pour notre sortie sans la moindre somme à payer en plus. Ca c'était vraiment super sympa et professionnel. Merci encore pour cela.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
