Great Value
Its a very good value for money! Seeing the city from the water is an absolute must in Istanbul and this is a great option to do that. I think the only minus I would give is that the sales people inside the boat are a bit much and, of course, inside the boat things are more expensive.
Must do!
A wholesome experience of the city with the great audio guide to inform about the interesting facts about the city!!!! Must do when you are in the city for a short duration !
Great cruise!
Just the ticket after a long day sightseeing. Refreshing, relaxing and simply stunning coastline to discover. Commentary was provided and easy to purchase refreshments of fresh fruit and drinks. Our group can straight from a mosque tour and Hakan our guide escorted us all the way to the pier and even came on board initially to ensure we were comfortable with our seats. Great attention and kindness. Thank you !
So cheap I almost thought it was a scam
