Great 4.0
There are other t&c that you learn once you board the cruise ship. The choices of food and drinks is limited under the package. Any other choice of drink or food outside standard menu is chargable. The standard menu is very basic and this could be made clear in offer package. It is a good experience tough, however there are sevral company that offer such packages with differnt ship size and style. I suggest to do research and then decide to get true value of your money.

Great 4.0
Very nice experience. I deducted 1 star because of some difficulties in redeeming the voucher. The one you receive on the mobile version is not sufficient. You need 4 QR codes (2 people - 2 for the outbound and 2 for the return). But the staff on site are very friendly and helpful. As a result, you should arrive at least 15 to 20 minutes before departure. The journey takes 2 hours to get to Budukaya, which is the last island, as the boat makes all the stops. I recommend this visit because it's a change from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul and it's very pretty.

Fantastic 5.0
We had booked 2 hours yatch tour with snacks and wine. Unforgettable experience with senic views of European and Asian side. Luckily weather was perfect for amazing views and our guide was really entertaining and knowledgeable. We got a learn a little bit of history, nice places and restaurant recommendations for best Turkish food and sweets in Istanbul. We took some nice photos and thoroughly enjoyed our Sunset yatch.

Relaxing experience. I enjoyed a lot the envoronment knowing it's almost 300 years. The hammam was rather a "spa" soft and relaxing experience ranther than full exfoliation like I receive during moroccan bath. It's just worth to come and experience the history.

Relaxing experience. Very welcoming staff put us at ease and took us through the different stages of the experience. Includes access to the hotel pool and sauna afterwards. Would visit again!

Learning how to make Turkish coffee was so interesting! The part of boiling the coffee in the hot sand was very satisfying.

I booked 3 workshops for the same day and all were amazing! This was my favorite part because I could create my own Turkish lamp!
