It was really nice experience. We enjoyed a lot in the cruise. Food was nice and service was excellent. The only thing I felt was not that great was the air conditioning in the cruise. Apart from that overall experience was wonderful. We recommend it.

It didn't start at 8:30 p.m. as listed; it started at 9:07 p.m. We went as a family with my kids and really enjoyed it. We didn’t care much for the first appetizer, and then they gave us a choice between meat and fish. We chose chicken and beef… served with some vegetables, rice, and potatoes (which were very good, by the way). The traditional Turkish dessert was also very good. They served us drinks at the beginning, but even after asking several times for Coca-Cola, it took them forever to bring it… It was almost time for dessert by then. The atmosphere was great—very lively. The tour was a wonderful cruise that let us see Istanbul’s best sights. Highly RECOMMENDED

Enjoy a 3-hour Bosphorus cruise with your own private table, a delicious 4-course Turkish dinner, plus live entertainment featuring whirling dervishes and DJ beats.

Glide past Istanbul’s top sights like Galata Tower, Dolmabahce Palace, Ortaköy Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace.

Savor a flavorful Turkish dinner with mezze, fish or meat dishes, spring rolls, and pasta, all while you watch sword shows and folk dances.

Upgrade your experience with unlimited soft drinks, 2 or unlimited alcoholic drinks, and optional round-trip hotel transfers for a seamless evening.

In the description it said that they were going to do a sword demonstration but we did not see it. We missed the Dervish show because it wasn't announced. We were upstairs on the deck to get some fresh air before dinner. The shows should be announced to make sure no one misses them. The food was good, especially the entree but the main was a bit of a joke, especially the fish. There was only two small pieces of potatos with it. The show with the belly dancers was a bit too long, redundant. I was a bit disappointed that the boat wasn't passing by the Blue Mosque. The amount of people smoking was insane and extremely frustrating to eat with the smell of cigarettes.

This was my third cruise; the other two were with different companies, and aside from the itinerary—which seemed a bit different to me, let’s say a bit farther from the palace, the whirling dervishes show didn’t live up to my expectations, but the main thing that bothered me was dining without air conditioning—at least in the section where we were seated, the air conditioning was out for almost the entire duration of the cruise. Room for improvement.

The dancers were great, but the dinner left something to be desired—the food wasn't very good. Plus, they seat you really close to other people, so you end up missing the view of the Bosphorus if you're not paying attention. I think they need to improve their organization and the quality of the food.
