EXCELLENT!!!
1 - Magnificent walks around the Bosphorus of Istanbul and Asia side with its magnificent Palace, Mosque, tower, giant flag, among others, by boat with excellent hearty lunch (included).
Lequipe picked us up at the door of our Hotel and then dropped us off again. Professionally guided tour in several groups by Salim the French guide.
2 - International evening with dinner and folk and dance show with evening meal included, by boat on the Bosphorus just as well organized!
THANK YOU to Ahmed and his colleague for their very warm Welcoming, for advising us his outings etched in our memories ❣️
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND...!!!

Beautiful & Fun Night on the Bosphorus Night
Dinner was an incredibly yummy three-course meal. The shows were amazing and then they played music for everyone to dance the night away. You can also walk around the boat and to the upper levels for amazing views. The service was top-notch from start to finish. Overall, a great experience.

My friend Zeki
The experience in Turkey is unforgettable, the people, the food and the wonders that Istanbul has are incredible, we did a private yacht tour with my friend Zeki who was always there for us and even accompanied us to our hotel. Truly the best company and the best human quality so much so that we are friends in the distance,
Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴

Terrible and Avoid
Food and service were so subpar .
The entertainment was sleazy as the dancers would run their bodies on men’s bald heads . I left so disappointed. Maybe try a different tour company . The concept and location are a great idea... just not with this company .
Operator response
Dear Jonatha,
Thank you for sharing your experience with our tour, we are so sad to hear that we couldn't please you. We have been receiving reviews here on since long years and one can't see a single review saying bad reviews as you said. We have many reviews and all of them are excellent rated. we really can't accept such an unfair accusation, let me explain why!! The reason why you write bad review is that you asked fully refund 40 usd(dollars) from the company and we didnt accepted that. That is the main reason why you write here this review. All is about the money(40 usd) not about our boat and shows. Furthermore, when we watched cameras on the boat, we see that you enjoy and had great time as well. You are just complaning to get 40 usd back. That is main reason. You got shuttle service, foods with unlimited alcohol, turkish shows and 2 hours 30 minutes tour. It is written that this is group tour not private. We find your accusions intentional. This is not fair, it shouldn't be that easy to do harm to the peoples' businesses unjustly especially during the Covid-19 while people are having really hard times in business especially in tourism.
Future travelers can be sure that we have always been conducting our tours with great enthusiasm and we will always be doing so.

Amazing dinner cruise
My husband and I and 2 friends have just returned from Istanbul where we had the good fortune to book a dinner cruise on the Bosporus. We were collected from and brought back to our hotel in a very comfortable taxi. The atmosphere on the boat was great, the food was good and the entertainment was excellent. We saw many types of dancers including Dervishes, belly dance and Turkish folklore. The night went too fast! Would highly recommend this trip.
