“A must do when visiting Istanbul! To see the old ‘Constantinople’ from the water at sunset and hear the calls to prayer was quite an experience. The boat was perfect, the guide interesting and not incessant with clear speech in English, delicious light food and drinks … what more could a visitor to this amazing city ask for.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 161 reviews · 2 hours (approx.)

Review of Istanbul’s private two-hour Bosphorus yacht cruise, with palace views, snacks, drinks, practical tips, pricing, and honest drawbacks.

“This was not a super cheap trip but I thought it was worth it - they were well organised and communicated well before the trip and were very attentive, friendly and professional throughout. Elena was very good at checking on our needs. The boat was lovely and clean and comfortable and a great way to see the sites. Snacks and initial drinks were good but drinks costs beyond what we were given would have been high - overall excellent we all enjoyed it”
