We originally booked one of the cheaper Bosphorus boat tours but after reading reviews on this yacht we decided to pay extra for a better experience and we’re so glad we did!! We watched the cheaper boats loading and couldn’t believe the amount of people getting on them and how cramped they looked. This yacht was spacious and comfortable and they take a maximum of 30-35 people so plenty so plenty of space to move around. The crew all spoke excellent English and the tour guide was very interesting and informative. From the time we set off we were supplied with water, Turkish tea and coffee and various snacks which were very welcome. The tour lasted 2.5hrs including a stop off in a fishing village on the Asian side for a drink or a visit to a lovely little local mosque. My husband has mobility issues and the crew were very helpful in assisting him to get on and off the boat and one member walked with us on the Asian side as the others had gone off ahead to ensure we were ok. We would both highly recommend paying the extra for this wonderful boat trip and it was a very welcome , relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of the city for a few hours.

We loved our tour with Gulshen! She was very knowledgeable and we felt very guided and cared for as she took the care to purchase tickets for us while we were able to wait in the shade. It was very thoughtful and educational. She was also very accommodating asking us for our preferences and if we needed a break for bathroom or snacks. We also enjoyed the luxury van that drove us around! Very pleasurable experience, would highly recommend!

Gallipoli an Important tour on life’s calendar
The experience was really wonderful. We met our guide Burek (please forgive if spelling Incorrect) at Gallipoli and he really brought the group together and made it very easy to ask questions and discuss aspects of places And situations. When I told him I had an uncle whose headstone I was hoping to see he was able to find the information so quickly and this was such good news - As an added extra he had photos and information on how he died. He was informative and fun to be around and despite His years in the guiding role still spoke with passion and interest about the soldiers, the decisions that led to the disastrous result and The bravery of men on both sides. The loss of life Is still hard to comprehend all these years later . Special thanks to him for his quick find on my Uncle and leading me to the headstone. The family all loved that this happened .. The tour pick up and communication was first rate. I was not left wondering about any details at all. Thanks again for a great tour and drive to such a special place.- for the meals and the icecream stop! I appreciate the effort you all put in and appreciate how smoothly it ran.. Cheers Margaret

I had an excellent experience. As planned, the tour guide picked me at Conrad Istanbul Ilisian Hotel and accompanied me on the entire trip, including on the boat. He told us history and background of all attractions and arranged for an excellent lunch. Finally, dropped us back to the hotel.
