Amazing experience for decent pricing. Ride came with helpful tour guide and tasty snacks, fruit, tea. I took quite a few photos as well.
we had a very nice experience for 2 hours, the service was excellent, very satisfied, highly recommend,
Highly recommend anyone visiting Istanbul to do the cruise tour with Sunset Bosphorus Yatch. Amazing experience - staff were friendly and hospitable. The tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. The 2hr cruise was the right amount of time to see Istanbul from a different view. The boat was luxurious, spacious and comfortable. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.
We booked a sunset boat tour and didn't regret it. The 2 hour Bosphorus cruise was an unforgettable experience. The boat Zoe was great and the service also made sure that we could feel completely comfortable. Thank you for the great experience.
Staff were gracious and the food was nice (a piece of baklava, some fruit, chai). What was disappointing was the narration. Ours was bilingual (which is great), although sometimes one translator forgot to join. I learned in two languages where soccer players partied 15 years ago, information I had no desire to learn! If you enjoy a Hollywood style tour of Istanbul, this is the tour for you! (Bring your selfie stick!) If, however, you wish to get a sense of the millennium and a half history of this city spanning two continents, secure a knowledgable tour guide. There was minimal discussion of the Asian (Anatolian) side, we ended up Googling the palaces we were passing.
