Reviews
I think this is the cheapest tour available, so you can't expect too much. They do provide food and drinks on board, which were actually really good. The tour guide didn’t have a sign, just an umbrella with the boat's name on it, which made it a bit confusing to find him at first — but it wasn’t a big deal. Overall, the experience was nice, and you get to enjoy the Bosphorus for two hours.
Bosporus straits is amazingly beautiful 😻 The cruise is huge and it’s doesn’t feel crowded even though there are many people onboard. The length of the cruise is just enough for you to take thousands of pictures with different sides of İstanbul. I love it so much that I went back and ride it again the next day. Don’t miss it if you visit İstanbul ❤️🔥
Value for money. On time. Food can be purchased on board. Nice view. Recommended to go for the evening tour as you can see the sunset. warm cloths needed.
2 hours tour of the Bosphorus Strait. Overall experience was good. Value for money. I love the view of Istanbul where Europe meets Asia.
You can see views from both sides of Asia and Europe. Throughout the two-hour cruise on the Bosphorus Strait, we saw many beautiful buildings, mosques, and other structures.
good price, good ferry, good time (on time and very on time), 2 hours in the ferry is very amazing. everybody have good experiens in this app
I will describe the moments that I did NOT like: 1. boarding - at first a bunch of people from the square to the pier practically run to the pier, trying to overtake the others in order to be the first to board the ship, but having missed the narrow control doors at the pier we find that there are already a lot of people on the ship, this is not first landing spot! 2. It’s not clear what attraction the audio guide is talking about. In 4 languages, it is sequentially told in turn about something, but the ship is sailing, and what was told in one language about the attraction that they were now sailing through, for listeners in the fourth language it is no longer clear what they are talking about, the ship has sailed. It turns out to be an ordinary walk on the water. 3. Well, because of the huge number of people, of course it’s not comfortable: moving around the ship and trying to take interesting photos!
Value for money. 2 hour tour of the Bosporus strait and golden horn with audio guides. sit on the left side facing the view to avoid sun on the afternoon and to appreciate the view while the audio guide explains. They sell juices and fruits (200 lira a cup). and also pancakes.
Easy to book. The cruise was informational. Foods and drinks served on the boat with a fee. The cruise lasted about 2 hours and we saw everything from the boat with audio guide explaining everything with different languages over the speaker. Overall, recommended to book from Klook with great price.
always hassle-free with klook! a must do in Istanbul! :)
