Great Bosphorus Cruise - Great experience, nice and warm cruise staff, valuable for money….. exceed our expectation.Good food in Asia side. 1 hour Asia shopping was pretty limited and we’ll plan if you want to dine in. Ziya Restaurant where we did take away was delicious with reasonable price. Hope you can enjoy your cruise too 🤗

Memorable golden hour cruise - Clean ship, views from the back were amazing. There is also a guide for those sitting inside and her narration was quite informative. They also serve complimentary tea and cookies.

Highly recommended - We really enjoyed the evening boat trip. The boat departed on time and we returned promptly. The duration of 2 hours was perfect. Tea and biscuits were provided for everyone during the trip. The chairs on the upper deck could be positioned more advantageously so that people face forward while the boat is underway. As it was, we constantly had to turn around to see everything. P.S. It's very windy in winter, so dress well! :-)
