A perfect contrast to busy Istanbul.
After a few days in busy Istanbul, what a lovely surprise to enjoy the relaxing yacht tour. A perfect end to a Turkey vacation. The hosts were very knowledgeable on the Bosphorus and surrounding area. Thank you Anil and Bashak.

Beautiful experience, highlight of our trip.
The private sunset yacht tour was the highlight of the trip. The host was amazing and so friendly. Anil was very knowledgeable of the bhosphorus and was very helpful to us. He liaised with our taxi drivers as we had no network whilst on turkey, he ensured we had a safe journey home. We were so grateful. The yacht itself was beautiful, clean and amazing views. We had snacks given to us and topped up throughout the two hour trip. I would definitely recommend.
