Happy - Positive feeling , guide Baris was kind and the service was good and we recommend it to anybody who visits Istanbul Bosphorus Tour

First time in Turkey - The boat was comfortable, the food was great and our guide Baris was informative and engaging. The sights were amazing and we learned a lot about the area.

Boforus boat trip - We took the boat tour yesterday. We must stress out that our guide Murat was quite knowledgeable and helpfull. He conviced the boat crew dropping us off on another location, since we were a little tight on schedule and asked for it. He also provided some pratical informations to our time in Istambul afterwards and became available to help us if needed. A true Istambul enbassador 😄

Fantastic Bosphorous Cruise Tour - The tour was great and the total hours for the tour was just perfect. It was awesome with the Sedat as the tour guide. He is excellent in his detailed explanation about the whole tour and along the boat cruise. He knows what he is talking about. He offered more by walking with us to the Tram Station Kabasi and using his Istanbul card for us to get into the station. We love him as our tour guide. Thank you Sedat and keep up with the good job, and until we meet again… adios! And we do not forget the lovely lunch provided and we had fish and it was so fresh. 😃👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Really enjoyable - Sedat kul was our guide he was wonderful. Explained everything and made sure we were comfortable, with toilets , coffees etc. Would use him again

Best way to see Istanbul from the Bosporus straight - This trip was fantastic. Really great views of the Bosporus all the way to the Black Sea. They gave lots of good information on what we were seeing and we had a lovely lunch at a small fishing village at the midpoint of the trip. Incredible views of the beautiful bridges and lovely homes on the Bosporus and the busy waterway of the straight. Fantastic views of the city as well and great snacks during the whole time. Would definitely go with this crew again. Great experience.

Be sure they have enough people to make it work - Didn't go. They cancelled the day before. Seemed like they were nice and it was going to be a cool trip but..This time of year (mid November) there are not as many tourists. Apparently they could not put a large enough party together to go with the two of us to make it work monetarily for them. Completely understandable. But, it would have been better if they had let us known sooner. We may have been able to change the date to make it work for all involved.

wasted day - They cancelled the cruise probably because they didn't have enough passengers. But they didn't tell me it was cancelled. They said it was cancelled because of rain but there was no rain. I wasted the whole day.

Don’t you ever book IBO tour. - I booked a tour with IBO cruise and tours. The title of the tour is “Guided Bosphorous & Black Sea Cruise with Stopover Asia and Lunch” The tour was supposed to start at 13:30 2 Jan 2025. I went to the designated meeting point, which was in front of the IBO office. It turned out there was no such office there but a street vending style desk with a man. I asked him about my tour and he said that particular tour was only for summer season and it was not operational now. (If this is true, they advertise a non-existing tour.) When I insisted, he changed his story and the tour started at 10:30 and I missed the tour and it was my fault! He kept telling stories and lies! In the end, this vendor guy told me I should call Viator myself, and then he gave me the phone number of the boss of IBO. I was supposed to complain to him directly! How am I supposed to trust a tour company like this? Furthermore if Viator keep using this kind of tour company, it would only damage the trust and good reputation of Viator. I hate to say this but I hesitate to purchase Vistor service again and advise others to do the same as well, if this is the norm instead of an exception.

Stranded - I made a booking for my wife and I. It was supposed to be a memorable tour and experience. After the tour company canceling on us the night before I was lucky enough to rebook at last minute. Meeting point was clear. We took no chances and got there 1 hour early. I even confirmed with other tour companies that I was at the right place. We waited and waited and waited and no one showed up for us. Other tourists were sorted out and greeted by there respective companies but IBO was absent. It was time to go back to the hotel dissatisfied and disappointed.
