Dinner cruise ultimately alcoholic. Not a good experience with children. Loud music, nightclub atmosphere. Passable food. Photography at 50 euros very expensive.

The shows are beautiful, the dancers are good. The welcome is very pleasant and the surrounding scenery is worth a look.

It was a very fun experience. Enjoyed it throughout.

It's all about Istanbul!

One of the best ways to see the stunning architectural marvels of Istanbul is by hopping on the Bosphorus cruise. The 3-hour cruise is packed with things for you to see and experience, making this the best choice for your travel.

Start your cruise by meeting your English/Spanish or Arabic-speaking host at Kabatas Port (near Dolmabahce Palace). Onboard the air-conditioned cruise called "Pereme" and find a spot that makes viewing the attractions and performances seamless. Pass by some of the popular landmarks of Istanbul like the Dolmabahce Palace, Ortakoy Mosque, the Ciragan Palace, Rumeli Fortress, the Bosphorus Bridge, Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge, Beylerbeyi Palace, seaside mansions, and the Maidens Tower. You will get a sense of Turkish architecture and engineering as you sail by each of these attractions.

Enjoy an entertaining evening

To make your cruise experience even more worthwhile there are belly dancing performances, whirling dervishes, and more that will leave you amazed. Not just that, you can also enjoy a good DJ set, and rhythm shows that will keep you entertained throughout the evening. The best part is that you can explore the flavors of Turkish cuisine while doing so. With entree and drink options, there is so much in store for you to try out.
