Definitely worth it - Super view of Istanbul from the water. Boat stops at interesting places so you have time to take pictures. Very friendly crew.

Memorable boat tour - We enjoyed seeing the monumental sites during the boat tour. There was also a little photo shoot area were guests can take professional photos in traditional Turkish garments. Despite the rain it was overall a great experience.

Passable with poor communication - Nobody lets you know the collection time for hotel pick-up and they dont answer their phone if you call. I assumed drop-off back at the hotel was included,but it wasnt and I had to walk back from the port. Boat itself amd cruise was fine.

Good boat ride. - I enjoyed the boat ride. Communication was not clear. It is actually longer than the tour said, and we were lost in what to do after the ride to find out a different company and driver will take us home. They should explained the process.
