NEVER going to book this boat again in my life

Toni_A, Jan 2026

- Overcrowded - They fed us mainly with BREAD and WATER for the first 1,5 hours - It took them almost 2 hours between serving of first dish which was filled only with sides and the second "main" dish which literally had 2 slices of popato and 2 pcs. of small kebap - There was no third dish with desert!!!!! - Alcohol was available, with questionable quality and you literally have to beg the bar to get a refill on your glass, because the staff is rarely available to serve you - table was overcrowded - table was not private, but shared with atleast 50-60 people - we were supposed to depart at 21:00 h local time, this did not happen untill 22:35h. So we were sitting at the pier more than 1.5 hours in a cold boat. - Boat was very cold and no one provided us with proper heating, atleast not untill the boat starts moving, which took 1.5 hours time. - Staff refused to move us (2 people) to a warmer place on the boat - too overpriced experience - NEVER GOING TO BOOK THIS BOAT AGAIN !!!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. However, we would like to respectfully clarify that several points mentioned in your review do not accurately reflect the service that was provided. First of all, our tour includes a complete dinner service, consisting of appetizers, a main course and dessert, all of which were served according to the program. Dessert service was provided, and this is documented in our operational records. Our menu is fixed and applied equally to all guests. Regarding departure time, the boat departed on schedule within the announced time frame, following standard port authority procedures. Waiting at the pier during boarding and final checks is a normal and mandatory process for all boats and should not be considered a delay. There was no late departure outside the operational program. New Year’s Eve cruises are designed as shared, high-capacity festive events, clearly stated in the tour description at the time of booking. Tables are communal by default unless a private table is specifically purchased and confirmed in advance. No private table was booked under this reservation. Unlimited alcoholic beverages were available throughout the event and served in accordance with legal and safety regulations. Service was provided continuously by our staff circulating between tables. Any perceived waiting time is related to responsible service standards during a very busy night, not a lack of availability. The boat is equipped with heating systems, which are fully operational once the vessel departs. Seating changes are subject to safety, balance, and capacity regulations and therefore cannot always be accommodated. These rules are applied equally to all guests. Pricing for New Year’s Eve events reflects special conditions, including high demand, live entertainment, unlimited drinks, dinner service, and extended operating hours. The experience delivered was consistent with the description and pricing shown at the time of booking. While we respect that personal expectations may vary, we would like to clearly state that the service was delivered as described, on time, and in full, without any missing elements. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you pleasant experiences in your future travels. Kind regards, Hüseyin
