イスタンブール: ボスポラス号の豪華プライベートヨットクルーズ

Looking for something to do on a 23hr layover in beautiful Istanbul? Look no further. Our flight was scheduled to land in Istanbul around 7pm, and we were looking for an activity that would allow us to see the city and its majestic landmarks lit up at night. Our ETA wouldn't allow for us to join a larger dinner cruise on the Bosphorus, so when I found a private cruise that could leave at any time that fit our schedule, I was quick to book the activity. Having picked the time at booking, I was contacted by the company within the day and given some options to customize the cruise. Dinner/snacks/drinks and hotel transfers were all arranged over a few exchanged messages making it truly one-stop and very convenient. Upon arrival in Istanbul it was easy to contact and confirm all arrangements were in place. Transfer information for the driver was provided and promptly arrived. We were taken directly to the meeting spot and welcomed right on board. With only 3 of us in the group, having the whole boat to ourselves felt very luxe. Dinner was an amazing selection of local flavors, which was picked up from a café on the Galata Bridge right after we boarded. The servings were generous and the mezze plentiful, all tasted amazing. Cruising along the Bosphorus, taking in the sights and enjoying a delicious meal was everything we needed to truly feel the vibe of the city. Personalized and friendly service was the icing on the cake.

Great mini cruise, The boat was comfortable and crew service minded. You can also order some drinks and snacks on board, which was nice.

Wonderful trip. It was the best option I took. A very small group gives you the oportunity to move through out the whole yatch cruise. The staff too kindly and they provided us a wonderful plate of fruit and additional snacks. Definitely I recommend it.

Easy last minute booking. We booked an 11am charter and showed up at pier 10 mins early. The boat was there on time at 11am. The Man at the pier spoke English and he told us that we could just talk to the guys on the boat if we wanted to extend past our booked 1 hour trip. No thank you! The guys operating the boat spoke NO English. The boat moved at a snail’s pace and never picked up speed. Ferries and fishing vessels were passing us on both sides. Kayaks and canoes would have passed us. It was hot with next to no breeze and I had to use Google Translate to ask them to please speed up. They barely acknowledged me and did not speed up. I don’t know if they were trying to waste time or save gas. Maybe both. No one attempted to tell us what we were seeing or communicate at all. No pleasantries were exchanged. We then stopped on the Asian side to pick up their friend or colleague. Yes, during our one hour booking. Just fyi- We took a public ferry to kadikoy the next day and had a lovely, breezy 20 minute ride for $1.50 each way. Save your money- ride the public ferry!

Wonderful cruise, which completely met our expectations and the description of the booking. No more than 16 people on the boat, which was big enough for each one to be his space. Very friendly staff. They regularly check that everything is okay. Possibility to buy drinks on board (soda beer wine) to accompany a plate of dried fruit and fruit, or to bring whatever you want on board.

Wonderful! Beautiful boat & such lovely meal we had. Thank you Mete and Stambulter tours! What a lovely way to see Istanbul and the Bosphorpus Strait!

The tour was super organized. Contact via Whatsapp was flawless and all info was sent in time. There were snacks and drinks as described and we had a great 2 hour boat trip. The guides were very accommodating and also answered all questions. We would definitely recommend it.

Spot boat - Accurate and easy meeting place Small group cruise with enough space for everyone to have plenty of room to lie down or sit down... Whether it’s indoors or outdoors. Small snack that comes down to a single mini pizza, dried fruit and a plate of fruit - as well as tea or coffee. This is really nice! I advise!

Yacht comfortable, clean, attentive and friendly staff. 100% recommended experience. Yacht has an area in the Bow with mats to enjoy the views that the Bosphorus gives and if the temperature drops on the wind is much, it has indoor area protected from the outside. Boundary group which allows relaxation experience and enjoyment of the trip.

It was delicious, we were well taken care of with tasty snacks and coffee and it was relaxed to do a boat trip with so few people on board. Nice piece of danger. Highly recommended!
