Top Istanbul Day Cruises

Had the best day. Pick up was perfect and amazing, all the Tour guides, and the people on the Yacht were absolutely lovely. Food was delicious lovely stop at the top of the phosphorus to go for a swim. On the way back, we stopped at a lovely restaurant and a little fishing village for lunch. And then continued our journey back to the dock. Fresh fruit was provided and nonalcoholic beverages. Beautiful day. I highly recommend.

We had so much fun on this excursion. We didn't see much off the boat but there was so much to see inside we were very happy. We did have a table near the dance floor, that was a big help for our 8 year old, I'm not sure he'd be able to see from a table further back. The food was delicious and the entertainment lively. There was a bit of a hiccup with transportation but I had changed the original order so I'll take responsibility for it. The discrepancy was refunded quickly. I'm actually booking this tour again to bring my middle kid and my mother in a few months!

Wonderful tour on the Bosphorus at sunset. Very friendly and professional staff, drinks and snacks, good explanation, each group had a private corner on the deck to enjoy the journey with their friends or family. It was windy and blankets were provided which was great.

A beautiful way to spend a morning in Istanbul. Great tour. Breakfast was tasty fresh & plentiful served with Turkish tea. The views around the bay spectacular and the guide’s commentary was very informative. Spent some time in Asian Istanbul great to see. All in all a fab trip lasting 3hours and great value for money. Loved it!

This is a great way to sail through the Bosphorus and see the landscapes and most importants buildings from the sea, of both side European and Asian. The best is to do it on the sunset. The provided food was very good as well lemonade and tea. This is a great value for the money.

The Bosphorus night cruise was an unforgettable experience. The views of the illuminated palaces and bridges were breathtaking, providing a perfect backdrop for the evening. The entertainment was lively and authentic, showcasing the best of Turkish culture. I was also impressed by the quality of the dinner and the professional service of the crew. Everything was well-organized and happened right on schedule. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to see Istanbul’s magic from the water."

All the details were very helpful from making the reservation online at Viator, to the meeting point and the point of contact, to communication with the team through WhatsApp, and finally the informative and lovely tour with Alpy, Captain and crew. We paid a little extra for the one glass of wine, but Alpy was incredibly generous by always offering more. There was more snacks and more wine, it seemed. Alpy also provided an abundance of information on the rich and meaningful history of the architecture and geography of Istanbul. It’s an interesting perspective of the city when you’re on the3 waterway. He also was very charming, trying to engage those on shore - quite entertaining; it takes a lot to remember and share so much detailed information and perform while being personable. He did it all very well. I’m usually a seasick person, so I stayed in one spot, front middle of the boat behind the captain so that I could have a view of the horizon and the land. I was totally fine. Not an issue at all.

We had a great time in the Seal land ferry service. It was a sudden trip. But we are glad that we took the time. The boat is lovely and the staff is outstanding. The tea and the Simit was heavenly. I will highly recommend this trip. It’s a bucket list experience.
