The views of the city at night were breathtaking and the private table made for a romantic and intimate setting. The food was delicious and the service was top notch.

It was a wonderful experience. Very well organised picked up and brought back to hotel without problems. The staff is very friendly and diligent. I had requested private table and it was the center if the show. The show was wonderful and friendly atmosphere. I booked with alcoholic drinks but the alcohol they serve is not what you expect of poor quality.
Good opportunity to see a variety of well performed dancing
Alison_T, 06-01-2023
Both my husband did this cruise. I think it would best be described as a dinner show on a catamaran on the Bosphourus.
Pickup was from motels and was on time.
The meal was authentic, with a choice of meats.
The dancing was of many types including Latin, ballroom and traditional Turkish dances including a belly dancer. All dancing was of a high calibre. Service was good, food was well prepared.
It was good to see some landmarks from the Catamaran. The catamaran looped around and around between the bridges all evening
I did not feel comfortable that the belly dancer who performed amazingly - spent quite a bit of time coaxing money for photographs with her from those on board. The photographs were taken by a resident photographer and then offered for sale at a price. This could be just an old lady’s sensitivity

It is what you pay
lincanandrei, 04-01-2023
Overall is what you pay. The vibe was good and we started dancing at a point. Shows are interesting, but i felt like I paid more for them then the trip itself on Bosphorus. The food was fine (maybe we were lucky to be served a hot food). Unfortunately, the boat is not traveling to much along Bosphorus, I was expecting a longer trip. If you want to see more outside I would recommend getting another trip.
Good for one time xperience once but would not recommend more than that
Puspa_T, 16-12-2022
Beautiful view and its a good experience, service was okay but food and beverages were not upto the mark. Traditional dance show was great but were mostly looking to extract tips photoshoot is a tourist trap which should be avoided.
Lovely experience! Food could have been better.
Fathima_Z, 02-12-2022
Staff definitely friendly. Lovely and clean boat. Only issue was that the food could have been better.
Not bad overall!
shahzadstudio, 01-12-2022
Excellent service! The pickup, drop off from hotel, waiters serving and overall communication was excellent.

The dinner food quality was really below average. The show was below average not worth it at all IMHO. We would have picked a different activity to do for the night if we knew the quality of the food and show would be so low.

Overall not a terrible experience but we felt that it could've been so much better.
