Brilliant Bosphorus Dinner Cruise

We were picked up and dropped off at the hotel with no problems.

In between we had a great dinner cruise. Food was good, service excellent. We were well entertained by the dancers and the music.

If you like to have an alcoholic drink with your meal paying that little bit extra is well worth it. The waiter ensured we didn’t have to ask or wait for the next glass of wine.

Would certainly book again and recommend this dinner cruise to anyone visiting Istanbul.

The best memories of Turkey

Neerajnimi from India

Not only the Bosphorus dinner cruise ,It was a wonderfully co-ordinated Turkey trip for me and my family so well managed by Hakan.

This amazing trip started from the pick-up from the Istanbul airport followed by the vibrant dinner cruise on our arrival day.Later we proceeded for Izmir and then Cappadocia.

Every thing was so well coordinated from day 1 and even much before that,when we were planning for the trip.Hakan was always very accommodating and so well organised.He gave us all information right on time and made it very clear to understand.

All airport pick-up, drop offs were in luxury vehicle , right on time.

Be it Pammukale day trip , tours in Cappadocia or the mesmerizing Balloon flight. Hakan left no stone unturned to make it a perfect experience for us.

Nice Evening

Marina from CA

This was very nice cruise, and the food was excellent. We opted for drinks included, and they kept flowing. I was a bit dismayed that we arrived on the ship about one hour before festivities began, including dinner, and it seemed like a long wait. I don’t think,they needed to pick us up so early as we were among the very first to arrive. It did seem like a long evening considering our early arrival, then dinner and show. I think we did not arrive back at port until about 11 PM. We had opted for pick up on both ends of the cruise , but they never mentioned where we would be picked up at the end of the cruise. We almost missed our departure, only to find that the various shuttle vans were all lined up way on the other side of the street. Our driver was good enough to wander through the crowds looking for us i’ll be with the last to board the van for the return to Istanbul.
