A memorable experience!

The company made it so easy they picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel in Pera. Serdar was a great tour guide and the boat trip made for a memorable afternoon!

Well worth it!

Great way to spend a relaxing morning seeing Istanbul from the river. Small group and refreshments served. Stop on Asia side mid way offered more information. We had opted for hotel pick up but on way back chose to walk as plenty to see and we found everywhere was walkable
