Reviews
One of the most gorgeous sunset I have ever seen. If you come to Istanbul, this is must-do activities. I highly recommend this tour because: (1) Service: the employees and tourguide guy are young and very enthusiastic to me. I like them and thankful to their service. (2) Facility/ Tour: worth the price, almost everyone has space outside to enjoy the view or taking photos. The cruise will cross all the famous and iconic places in both European and Asian side. (3) I tried this tour in middle of May, it had small rain but around 30 minutes only. After that the sunset bright and you will see both Asian and European in sunset. When the tour was going to end, we even saw a lot of dolphins, birds like seagull… The view was so stunning and peaceful 🌅💛
this was a good 2.5 hours cruise, viver the whole harbour and the surrounding, excellent chance to see Istanbul from the water view, although we came in from a larger cruise line. our on board tour guide Jelly snd the team were very enthusiastic and informative, narrating the history of each historical building along the way. Sailing was very smooth, cruise also served light snacks and beverages, staffs interacted with each of us, even offer to assist with taking wonderful pictures during the sunset. Highly recommended this event if you’re in town and don’t have time to explore the city on your own in a short period of time.
Amazing experience in the Bosphorus strait. The booking process was very easy and the directions given for meeting were clear. It was a nice small group and the boat was really nice. Staff members gave great service and were very knowledgeable about the various landmarks during the cruise. The snacks and drinks provided were delicious. I would highly recommend this for your trip to Istanbul. a must do!!
Once aboard the yacht, you're served nuts, snacks, water, and fruit in succession. (I hardly took any photos.) Alcoholic beverages are also available to order if desired. There's never a dull moment while waiting for the sunset. All the staff are friendly and diligent, serving food, cleaning up, taking photos, and providing guidance. Everything is perfect, from the passing scenery and cool breeze to the whale I happened to spot. Everyone enjoys themselves in their own way, welcoming the moment of sunset. Even the weather! The sunset is perfect.
One of the best experience while I am in Isanbul. The staff is very helpful especially to Alena, she is helping tp guild for good pictures. I think this tour is one of the thing you shouldnt miss while you are in Istanbul.
One of the best experience of the Istanbul trip. Great Yacht, welcome and friend team, an interesting historical lesson along the journey to endorse the trip; Turkish tea and snacks served. Yet nothing could compare with the Sunset over Istanbul!
I booked just two days prior and was lucky enough to have my reservation confirmed for the same day. The meeting point for the boat trip was easy to find, and once on board, they continuously provided snacks: gummy candies, cookies, nuts, and Turkish tea. We took the cruise in the early evening, so we were able to see both the daytime and nighttime views of the Bosphorus Strait, and the staff even provided blankets for passengers sitting on the deck (very thoughtful! 🥰). Besides seeing many famous buildings, we were also lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins near the mouth of the sea. I highly recommend this cruise!
Great cruising experience with lots of snacks from local desserts, nuts and fruits. A warm turkish tea and blankets during the cold was wonderful too. View and sunset were amazing with explanations on the buildings and landmarks around.
This is a fantastic tour, and I highly recommend it. Be sure to check the WhatsApp app and settings on the day of the tour, as the meeting point will be sent via WhatsApp. Depending on the boat, I recommend grabbing a spot on the mat at the front of the boat. If you can handle the wind, you can sit there!
We chose Türkiye for our honeymoon because of its dazzling Mediterranean beauty and its fascinating culture, where East and West coexist. Seeing the Mediterranean's blue waters made us want to try a cruise, so we quickly booked one and enjoyed a cruise trip with my spouse. It was wonderful to watch the stunning sunset together. The friendly staff and the constant supply of snacks and drinks throughout the trip created a very comfortable atmosphere. We would love to visit again.
