This tour is a must do ! - Out of all the tours we did in Istanbul this one was the best ! We did a sunset tour while the staff so diligently tended to us bringing out snacks and beverages along with such detailed explanation of history and surrounding architecture. If you are thinking of coming to Istanbul put this tour on the must list !

Good time in Istanbul - Excellent cruise and staff (not always the case on our trip through Istanbul). They give you correct snacks including fruit and the boat is very comfortable and without many people. Highly recommended

Experience of 10 - An experience of 10. From the start, the staff was super attentive and friendly, always watching that we did not lack anything. They are constantly taking out snack food, all very rich and well presented. In addition, they have details that make a difference: they offer blankets if it is cold, warm tea during the tour and always with a smile. The deal is close, professional and very caring. You can tell they care that you enjoy the experience. We would definitely repeat and recommend it 100% if you visit Istanbul.

The best way to get to know Istanbul - Fantastic experience. We just arrived in Istanbul and it was a great idea to do this tour. Very well explained everything and very well equipped the boat and attention to fantastic Turkish drinks and snacks. The spectacular sunset. It is very cold in February, so come well warm (you can leave blankets and you can also be inside). Great choice
