Istanbul Boat Tours & Cruises

We loooved Özen! She gave us a one day tour in Istanbul and it was just the perfect day. Her spanish was amazing and she explained the history very detailed, so we we feel that made the most out of our Istanbul trip. She also took us to a beautiful restaurant for lunch, her recommendations were great!

Great tour with Göckan and the rest of the crew! You really get to learn a lot about the city and with great views. It's also a nice little escape from the busy city for a few hours where you can reIax with the sea air. I would definitely do this tour again if I come back to Istanbul!

I really liked the tour. There was no seasickness on the boat, the views are beautiful, the chef is amazing – the hot food is incredibly delicious. An interesting show program, a fun disco, I recommend it to everyone.

Overall good experience, good organization, good staff. One caution: if the driver doesn’t come to pick you up by the appointed time, call the information phone number. We missed our scheduled cruise for that reason but they rescheduled. Also, pickup is designed for hotel guests so if you’re not in a hotel, also call the info number to arrange pickup. I think this event was a good value for the price.

The entire experience was amazing. We wanted a sushi dinner with dry white wine during the 2 hour cruise and the team handled everything. I texted our order, and they had everything ready on the boat for us. Throughout the cruise they were attentive and excellent hosts. The boat was in great condition and the right size for the choppy waters of the Bosphorus, smaller boats would rock and bob with the waves much more. Would absolutely recommend.

I do love the Boshoporus Cruise, the entertainment was amazing, food was okay but not really much for the Standard Menu, The staff are very great and friendly, the pick up was very late but after i do understand because we were stay at Sultan Ahmet area which is very traffic at that time and especially for the bus.

VERY SURPRISED! My husband and I took this boat trip on the 8th of November. Lovely sunshine and warm. We were picked up at the hotel in the old town and got extremely surprised when we went onboard the boat - quite big, felt luxurious and very clean. We sat outside on large white faux leather sofas and they gave us welcome drinks and bits to snack on - all very good. We were lucky, only about 25 people on the whole big boat so we got first class service! On the way up to the Black Sea they served a fantastic lunch. The guide was very informativ and the boat stopped off at a small village on the way back, and more things to eat and drink! Lovely luxury cruising! Even though it said in the brochure that the return transfer to the hotel is not included - they actually brought us back - no charge!

We really enjoyed our trip together with Ahmet, our tour guide. He is very knowledgeable of the sites and the history behind these sites. I personally became really interested about the Ottoman empire because of his stories. He also recommended a nice place to eat - the food is very delicious. This activity is highly recommended :).
