After a bit of confusion at the start and not being able to find our guide (through no fault of his). We met Kerem who took us to the boat for our tour. He was very friendly and informative and his knowledge of Istanbuls history was great and really interesting.

Good trip with good guide Kerem. This is a small group tour but in a common boat, good tradeoff quality-price.

Our guide gave us a comprehensive and very interesting insight into the history and sights on the Bosphorus. He was knowledgeable, charming and it tour was a highlight of our visit to Istanbul. Highly recommend.

We’ve had a personalised tour with Kareem during our trip. He’s knowlegeable with the sights and gave bitesize history of the famous landmarks along the Bosphorous straight making the price worth it. Definitely recommended!

This was a fantastic boat trip with an excellent guide who was prompt in meeting us and gave an insightful, detailed history to Istanbul and the sights along the Bosphorus. Highly recommended!

Great way to see a decent chunk of this ENORMOUS city! Our guide Kerem was excellent throughout; very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The two hours flew by in no time at all!

Great experience of exploring Bosphorus with our Guide who knows a lot about history, architecture, urbanism or any other topic related to Istanbul or Turkiye.

We had a wonderful time seeing the beautiful bosphorus strait from the ship. Our guide Kerem is the best!

No need to book at this time of year. Good price for the duration, only issue was there was no guide so I presume you need to download on an app in your language.

Our guide, Aeisha, is very knowledgeable and expresses her love for her country very much. We learned a lot about Istanbul even if our cruise only lasted approximately 2 hours.

Our tour guide Kerem was the best!! What a wonderful tour. Beautiful sites and knowledgeable tour guide. Comfortable boat. Great vibes

We had an amazing experience on the sunset cruise. Our tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable. My 15 and 12 year old children-and in-laws, enjoyed the experience. Always wonderful you can enjoy the experience for the water. I loved the ability to passively view and discover the city. Kerem was our tour guide and opened our eyes to the city and it’s rich history. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or more knowledgeable and kind guide!

Great tour! Kerem was an amazing travel guide. He showed me the best of Istanbul. I recomend him 100%.

We unfortunately couldn’t attend due to a last minute unforeseen circumstance. However, they were very kind and offered a full refund, no questions asked! Thank you, this is how a great service looks like!

Nice easy tour, great communication. Our guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! Tip: sit on the outer perimeter of the boat to have views without obstruction of other people.

Beautiful evening on the Bosphoros, lots of activity on water, many interesting points of interest, knowledgeable guide with an experienced eye for background/historical information

We enjoyed the pleasant sunset cruise with our guide but wished for more history and less information about rich people’s homes and the different clubs. Our guide was very enthusiastic and personable.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, kind and professional. She made our tour very enjoyable; explained to us everything in detail and answer all our questions. I will highly recommend this tour to anyone.

There are many choices of Bosphorus river cruises. Appreciated finding this option on Trip Advisor. Basically, there is a private guide who can take up to 10 people on one of the many cruises that go up and down the Bosphorus. Our guide was a pleasant young man, Kerem, whose English was excellent (part-time English teacher). He pointed out many items of interest and city sections along the Europe and Asia sides of the river. He could answer every question we had, which were many. It was a great start to our 3 days in Istanbul.

This was one of our best experiences in Istanbul. It was not altogether clear to us ahead of time that this comprised a guide taking us as a group onto a normal ferry, but I think this format drives good value. Our group was small - around 8 people - and the guide found a quiet spot so we were not really aware of everyone else on the ferry. Everything was smooth at the meeting point, which was easy to find. What makes these tours special is the enthusiasm of the guides, and Metin was no exception. This trip - apart from being iconic - is a good way to get a sense of the scale of the city and see some things that otherwise you would not if you are just there for a few days and focusing on the Old City.
