Boat cruise in Istanbul - Great tour, the guide was easy to hear and gave a good running commentary of the places we passed by, Spent the first half of the cruise inside the boat at our allocated table, listening to the guide, watching the dancing and the beautiful macaw. Bar and snacks were available. I understand they had a toilet onboard but I didn’t use it. Then the second half on the top deck. The bottom deck was mostly enclosed with a small outside area at the back and the top decks blinds were down, with the back of the boat open with a boxed area to sit on around the sides. it wasn’t busy so we had plenary of space. Great afternoon thank you

The cruise is very nice - Excellent value for money! A two hour tour from the Golden Horn up to the second bridge on the Bosphorus and back. You get a feel for just how huge and impressive Istanbul is! The guys on board were very friendly and there was a complementary cup of Turkish tea on offer.
