Not what was promised

Wrong time, 1 hour less than what they said, not clear point of meeting, didmt respond the chat. The only good thing that saved my day was the service at Sea and Land, excptional and human.

Misleading time information

Misleading time information. It started at 10am and had duriation 2 hours instad of 9:30am start and 3 hours duration. It was difficult to find the boat. We found a boat with travel agency name. However it was no name check-in and the boat attendant tald a diffrent shedule (10am departure) then it was on the reservalion (9:30 am). So it was confusing if we came to the right boat

Excellent Tour, but did NOT stop at Rumeli Fortress

It was a very good trip. The pickup at the hotel was great. However, it was a three hour cruise only and did not stop at Rumeli Fortress for an hour as was stated. Turned out that was fine for us since it was seriously hot out and we had less desire to go walk around as we did when we booked this. However, I am not sure why it did not end up being the trip that was advertised.

No stop at Rumeli Fortress

We took this cruise because we wanted to stop at Rumeli Fortress, and this cruise was the first one we found that said it did so. The tour description says : "The tour also stops for one hour to explore the Rumeli Fortress, perched on the banks of the river." However, the cruise did not stop at all at the Fortress. It just passed by , as it did with the rest of the sightseening points of interest. This is not what we were looking for. Other than that, the staff was kind and attentive.

Great boat trip with amazing sights

Good short trip with one stop. Very enjoyable. Staff very friendly and the sights are amazing. The Rumeli Fortress stop could have been a little longer.

Stunning views and very good Value

My wife and I were picked up at the hotel at the appointed time in a mini bus which then went to 3 or so further hotels to pick up more guests and then we were all taken to the cruise ship where there were more guests. We then went along the shore line for 45 minutes and picked up more guests and then continued on towards Rumeli along the European shoreline. The views of the mosques, palaces and steep inclines dotted with houses is stunning. You can opt to sit/stand upstairs which is open to the elements or downstairs which is enclosed with heating. On the day of our visit we had a mixture of light drizzle, sunshine, clouds and temperatures not rising above 14C, so the option of being downstairs was welcome. The stop at Rumeli for an hour was a chance to walk around a little and grab a coffee. The return was down the Asian side of the shoreline which is not as dramatic but nevertheless interesting. The ship made two stops to disembark the passengers, and the second one was where we were picked up to be taken back to our respective hotels. At around 800 TKL ( £24 at prevailing exchange rate) each, the tour was very good value. There is free coffee on board and snacks that could be bought. In the case of the latter I would suggest you buy your snacks elsewhere ( supermarket) as it would be better value.

Warm welcome to the experience

Welcoming….The warm welcome to the boat and introduction to the rules of the cafe. The way everyone no matter what their background was well treated.

Very good sightseeing

Very good tour. It is better to take morning tour than afternoon or evening tour. It is wise to wear or carry winter clothes as you will encounter very cool breeze.

Nice and correct

Very good agency to discover Istanbul and / or Turkey. Special mention to Hassen, who knew how to make us discover and the 5h cruise on the Bosphorus and Hamman very close to their address. To discover, I recommend!
