Tour in barca per piccoli gruppi con vino illimitato, frutta e frutta secca mista

This sunset cruise was recommended by our Airbnb host, and I'm so glad we took her advice. From the moment we stepped aboard, Simon made everyone feel at home. The experience felt less like joining a tour and more like spending the evening on a friend's boat with a small group of fellow travelers. It was cozy, relaxed, and exactly the kind of atmosphere we were hoping for. The real highlight, though, was Simon himself. It's immediately clear how much he loves Istanbul. Beyond sharing the city's fascinating history, he spoke so passionately about its neighborhoods, culture, and the everyday life of the people who call it home. I'd actually visited Istanbul once before, but hearing the city through Simon's perspective made me feel like I was experiencing it for the first time. Throughout the evening, Simon made sure everyone felt included, introducing guests to one another, keeping our drinks topped off, and making sure we all had a chance to enjoy the incredible sunset views from the front of the boat. By the end of the cruise, the whole group felt like old friends. What really made this experience unforgettable was that Simon's recommendations shaped the rest of our stay. We asked where to have dinner after the cruise, and instead of sending us somewhere touristy, he steered us toward one of our favorite meals of the trip. His suggestions for neighborhoods, restaurants, a raki bar, and even a hamam ended up becoming some of our favorite experiences in Istanbul. The cruise itself was wonderful, but what we'll remember most is meeting Simon. If you're looking for a beautiful evening on the Bosphorus and a chance to experience Istanbul through the eyes of someone who truly loves his city, don't hesitate to book this experience.

An excellent small-group experience on the Bosphorus. The yacht was ultra clean and modern, with comfortable seats (and a lovely bed section at the front of the boat where you could lie down if you wanted!). There was plenty of red and white wine and we were even given an ice cold beer when we met up at the start. Fruit and nuts were given to all groups too. There were also toilets on board which was helpful after all the drinks! Simon gave us lots of interesting information about the city, but really bought it to life without boring us by churning out fact after fact. He left lots of quiet time for us to chat to our friends and just take in the atmosphere. He and Georgina are clearly passionate about bringing the Istanbul experience to visitors to this amazing city. Would highly recommend!

If you’re visiting Istanbul and want to experience the Bosphorus in the best possible way, just book this tour with Simon. His energy, passion, and knowledge made this one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. Throughout the cruise, he shared fascinating stories and insights about the city, its history, and the landmarks along the Bosphorus, making the journey both relaxing and informative. We started around 7 PM during sunset, boarding a beautiful yacht and enjoying fresh fruits, great wine, and the company of a small group of fellow travelers. Watching the sun set over the Bosphorus while cruising between Europe and Asia was simply magical. The highlights of the tour were Simon’s excellent guiding, the stunning Bosphorus sunset, the intimate small-group atmosphere, and of course, the wonderful wine enjoyed with my wife. I’m very happy I chose this experience and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.

Excellent. Great guide. Lots of fun.

Simon is the best guide! Very honest, and the unlimited wine is great. They make sure you feel comfortable with blankets etc. Max 15 persons on 1 big boat, feels like a group of friends hanging out. Absolutely positive!

Simon and his team were amazing! Gave us the REAL Istanbul experience as seen by locals. Couldnt recommend this more. And the wine was fantastic!

A great evening with lovely hosts. On the ball with pre-trip communication and directions. A comfortable cruise on small yacht on the Bosphorus. Small group made it much more relaxed. On board, the yacht was comfy and clean, the commentary was both informative in an easy going way. Fruit platter and nuts provided were lovely together with wine. Lovely way to spend a couple of hours in the evening. Blankets provided for windier evenings. Fabulous.

Everybody on the boat including me enjoyed the conversation, the route, the wine, the charcuterie, the stories, the history and the photo opportunities. The size of the boat and the amount of people accommodated this is great And the price, is it well worth What you get ! I plan to do it all over again next time. And bring more people with me.

Simon and Georgina made this an excellent tour. Local knowledge and a more intimate atmosphere with a smaller group made me extremely glad i didn't book a large ferry tour instead. Definitely worth supporting this local business.

The cruise was one of our favorite highlights in this beautiful town Istanbul. It was a friendly atmosphere, and Simon gave us many great recommendations for, and interesting information about different spots in Istanbul.
