Bosphorus Sunset Cruise Reviews

Cold but Lovely sunset cruise

Viator review: It was a relatively cold cruise but we enjoyed it thoroughly as the crew gave us blankets and turkish tea to keep us warm. We had small bites but the highlight is definitely the sunset behind the European side.

Amazing experience and excellent staff

Viator review: I loved every second of this cruise!
The views of Istanbul are incredible and the staff was amazing as well. They are very attentive. They brought out a variety of snacks, desserts, and drinks to the guests. They eve brought blankets because it gets a bit cold on the water. The boat was the perfect size so you never felt like you were crowded by other people.
We were celebrating my daughter's birthday and they surprised her with a beautiful and delicious chocolate cake and they even played happy birthday. Everyone on the boat got cake too.
Everything exceeded our expectations.
