The best days in Turkey

We hired our guide for a full day of private touring the next day. The boat trip itself was awesome! His knowledge of Turkey's Ottoman history and storytelling was incredible! He added interesting details, dates, and anecdotal information and answered my husband's thousands of questions! As a private tour guide, he was amazing as well- our tour was highly personal, well planned, and comprised a full day including lunch and tea. He expertly navigated all the places we wanted to see and pointed out details, large and small! We highly recommend this travel operator!

Nice Tour

This was a really nice tour! The boat was comfortable and not too crowded. The staff were very friendly, information was good and the stop for yogurt was fun. We did it on our arrival day and it was a perfect chill intro to the city.

Fabulous weather, lovely cruise

Tour guide met us where expected and informed us of where to go and it was such a nice boat too! Very smooth sailing, snacks and drinks during our cruise and a funny yet informative tour guide. We even stopped briefly on the Asian side for some delicious yogurt w/honey. Made it back exactly on time. Very fun and relaxing.

Thank you for an amazing time!

We decided to spend our last day in Istanbul with this Bosphorus sunset cruise with a live guide on luxury yacht. It was a great way to end our trip. This city is so beautiful with so much rich history. Our guide was amazing and shared many insightful information about the European and Asian side of Istanbul. We had nice little snacks and drinks. Everybody on the boat were super friendly! The weather, the view and the sunset was just breathtakingly beautiful. It was a bittersweet moment for us ending this trip. InshaAllah we will be back! I highly recommend them! Thank you for an amazing time!

A great experience!

My grandmother and I took the Bosphorus Yacht cruise with a stop over on the Asian side on 1 March 2023. I would highly recommend this tour to all! The staff were very friendly, accommodating, and ready to answer my many many questions. A great experience! They also provided transport to and from our hotel which is a massive plus!
