Очень понравился тур, 🤩 Красивые виды, особенно вечером — атмосфера просто невероятная. Персонал был очень вежливый и внимательный, всё было хорошо организовано. Остались только приятные впечатления. Тур точно стоит своих денег, рекомендую всем, кто приезжает в Стамбул🇹🇷

A very enjoyable 3-hour tour on the Bosphorus. The boat was clean and well organized, and the service was great. There was also a 1-hour break during the tour, which gave us time to relax and take photos. Our guide Nazmie was fantastic and spoke English very well. Tea and biscuits were free. Highy recommened
