1.2 Hours Bosphorus Cruise Boat Tour in Istanbul

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 713 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $9Our pick

See Istanbul from the Bosphorus on a budget-friendly two-hour cruise with tea, WiFi, audio commentary, and sunset views near Maiden's Tower.

“They don’t guide you, they give you a link to access an online guide on your phone, which one of us got on for 5 minutes until it logged her off. I couldn’t get on at all because it was asking for a password and username. Plus, they play loud Turkish music, so you wouldn’t be able to hear anything. If you want a boat ride, it’s fine. Don’t expect to learn anything about the sights.”

Ride through Cappadocia’s Rose and Red Valleys on calm horses, with hotel pickup, small groups, scenic trails, and flexible start times.

“A well managed trip with good horses. Riding up and down the hills of rose valley at sunset was a beautiful experience and definitely worth doing. My husband and daughter are non-riders, but they were treated with care and made to feel safe. Communication was a little unclear - which may be due to the viator business interface. Our booking confirmation from viator said 4pm collection, but despite trying to contact the operator to confirm this earlier in the day, I had no messages until we were advised at 4.15 that pick up would be 5.15. So a bit of unnecessary waiting around that could have been avoided with clearer…”

Ride Cappadocia’s valleys by ATV from Goreme, with sunset views, hotel pickup, scenic stops, and practical tips on dust, pace, and safety.

“We booked the activity a bit skeptical as we had read that maybe it was a bit too "safe" and "unexciting". Our driver Marvin that was also our guide didn't speak English which also didn't help with first impressions, he seemed a bit brut. However when we started the tour Marvin was very helpful and attentive. He kept an eye on all of us (8 people/5 quad bikes) and if a problem occurred quickly run to solve it. He went the extra mile and photographed/took videos of each one, gave us a mini show with his bike, and kept the tour interesting and fun. The views of the stopping points…”

Review the 2-hour private Istanbul yacht tour, with Bosphorus landmarks, sunset views, drinks, pricing, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.

You can order extra service (food, drink...etc.) but better to check your order on the spot too after embarking. The staff is nice and friendly. A host is wating for you to help to find the ship at the bay. Absolutely recommended.”
