What a great and awesome evening that we have on this ship!
Great performance (throughout the three hours cruise) excellent food served, friendly staffs and implacable service!
The head waiter Ulas was amazing, he really took good care of us, filling up our water and ask us if we need anything else multiple times throughout the evening. Just wonderful all the way around.
My wife and I truly enjoyed this program and we highly recommend everyone to come and enjoy.

Arti_N, May 2026
Wonderful experience even though I had done a daytime ferry crossing on the Bosphorous. Very difffeent and magical by night. I think it’s a great value for money as it included pick up and drop off, food, beverages, lots of folk dances and the cruise itself.

Patrick_M, May 2026
The dinner and show was a fun experience. Our food was good, we had a choice of fish or meat. The entertainment was excellent. It exceeded our expectations.
We misunderstood the pick up directions and did run a little late on the pick up. Sorry
Fosbury_O, May 2026
Was a great experience. Great place to celebrate birthdays 🎂 pick was prompt. Food was great, and the music
Susan_V, May 2026
Transport to and from was average to say the least. Had no consideration for older people who needed the front seat instead let the young pretty girl sit there. Turned music up so loud the passengers in the back could not hold a conversation. The boat cruise was ok, would have been better in day time to see more, food was nice, staff were nice overall was pretty good. Dancing was fun to watch
Sharika_D, May 2026
My second time on this cruise and it’s still as brilliant as the first one. Good space, excellent food, enjoyable atmosphere and entertainment. Highly recommend this.
Marta_G, May 2026
Good food and service, high quality ship and show. We would repeat as a different and confortable experience to navigate Bosphoros at night.
hilllesley, May 2026
This was an extremely well managed experience. From the moment we were picked up from our hotel to bring returned back to our hotel. The food was well presented, tasty and quite traditional.
Deepa_B, May 2026
It was way longer than expected. The food was subpar. The boat was over crowded. The entertainment was okay.
Jawad_A, May 2026
Where to start . Nothing can go wrong with Lufer dinner cruise . Everything was just spot on and that too in just 22 £. Please buy your tickets online . There are people trying to scam you and asking 50 € for the same .live performance, unlimited drinks , 3 course meal .
Elizabeth_S, May 2026
Our tour guide was truly amazing. We enjoyed spending hours with her. She knew the history and the culture and the food. We learned so much and had the opportunity to taste so many amazing foods and sample amazing drinks. I had no idea what to expect but the tour by far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone going to Istanbul.
Amish_D, May 2026
Amazing experience. Amazing food and drinks. Great service.
Also the check in process was very easy.
Adam_Z, May 2026
Amazing experience! Great Food! Great fun!
Dances were entertaining and engaging. Perfect ambiance on the boat.
Caroline_F, May 2026
I would not recommend this experience to anyone. From the beginning we had trouble with contacting the tour company. It was this worst communication I have experienced with any tour I have ever booked. We never received a pickup time to meet, I reached out to the company twice, and Viator customer service three times with no answer on the pickup time. We randomly received a messages asking if we could be at the pick up location in ten minutes with no other warning. Once we get to the port to board the boat, the driver simply told us to get off without any explanation on where to go. We just had to follow the crowd of another tour. The whole experience felt disorganized and unprofessional. The best part of the whole experience was the music and all the performances. 10/10. If it wasn’t for them I would probably leave one star.

Great experience, good value and included pickup from hotel. Food and entertainment were excellent as was the waiter service. Big thanks to Hassan for looking after us so well.
Jason_R, May 2026
Had a great time, the entertainment was great and it is a must go to come here. Our server Yaluz was fantastic.
Orlaith_R, May 2026
Nice food. I couldn’t see the stage though which was a pity. There was also a door open near where we were sitting that let in a cold breeze. People traipsing in and out all night to smoke.
Ling_S, May 2026
Really nice cruise, good performance good food, and good atmosphere
The whole evening was very enjoyable
kjok, May 2026
Staff were lovely. There was a lot of food but it was bland and mostly cold. Even the hot food was only slightly warm.
The entertainment was good if that's your thing.
PS, we went VIP but other than being on a higher deck, I'm not sure what else you get (we did check out steerage and couldn't see much difference).
Dmitriy_B, May 2026
Very well organized although constant feeling of participating in a "tourist trap" experience. The dancing numbers were decent and the dinner and drinks were okay. Nice views of evening Istanbul - good for orientation and memorizing landmarks for visiting the next day.
Phyllis_E, May 2026
Fun evening. Good food. Good entertainment. Service was very good, courteous and efficient. Nice that when we got to table the first course was already there.
Our bus driver was also excellent
Ambreen_S, May 2026
Great food, service and entertainment. Had a great time. The show and food kept us engaged and sightseeing views were epic. Overall a wonderful experience, my 20 years old son enjoyed thoroughly. The entertainers made us dance too .. created some great memories
Fred_T, May 2026
Great service that covers end to end parts of the experience. Order the transfer option and unlimited drinks for a worry-free experience.
Chris_R, May 2026
Very well managed and good fun. Get picked up from hotel and be ready to dance at the end of the evening
Beverly_S, Apr 2026
