False advertising and misleading statements

Absolutely the worst experience! They claimed to have alcohol included in the price we paid. I have been asking for a drink for 39 minutes, they said someone will get it. Then, they said a manager will get your drink. Then I asked again, he said a manager will be here in 5 minutes. Then, someone came and said that we get 2 drinks each. My wife said that she didn’t want any alcohol, so I asked what they had to offer for alcoholic drinks, he said white and red wine, gin, tequila. I asked if he could make a margarita, he said no. I asked what else he could make for a cocktail, he said no cocktail. It all went downhill from there. False advertising and misleading statements.

Not worth the money. Select instead “sunset private yacht”

Can unfortunately not recommend this evening trip with food and show. The food was bad, the show really bad, and we sailed a very short distance back and forth and back and lay still - we must not in any way Bosporous Strait on that trip. It stated in the description that it was incl drinks. It turned out to mean 2 glasses of wine and a water. The rest we had to pay for. We had ordered with pickup at our hotel, but they forgot it. We had written 2 hours before to hear about the pickup time, which they did not respond to. When they didn't show up and we didn't show up on the boat, we were contacted and they got sent a cart. The boat and the other guests then had to wait for us. We had fortunately been on another cruise “sunset” private yacht (Max 30 Pers) the day before. This trip can definitely be recommended. There you sail further and see both sides both in daylight and sunset and with the lights on at dusk. Super cute crew and hosting. The evening is not worth the money and bings they even booked a luxury trip. Do not dare to think about what a non-luxury trip must be.

Response from the operator: Kære gæst, Tak fordi du delte din oplevelse med os – vi er oprigtigt kede af at høre, at aftenturen på ingen måde levede op til dine forventninger. Det er bestemt ikke den standard, vi ønsker at levere. Vi beklager dybt den utilfredsstillende kvalitet af både mad og show, samt den korte sejlrute, som ikke gav jer den oplevelse af Bosporus, I havde forventet. Ligeledes er det helt uacceptabelt, at informationen om drikkevarer ikke var tydelig, og at jeres hotelafhentning ikke blev håndteret korrekt – dette skulle aldrig være sket. Vi forstår fuldt ud jeres frustration, især når I kom fra en meget bedre oplevelse dagen før. Det glæder os, at I fandt en tur, der gav jer et smukt indtryk af Istanbul, men vi er oprigtigt kede af, at vores service ikke gjorde det samme. Vi ønsker naturligvis at undersøge sagen nærmere og forbedre vores service, så dette ikke sker igen. Hvis I har mulighed for det, må I meget gerne kontakte os direkte, så vi kan følge op og finde en passende løsning. Endnu en gang beklager vi oplevelsen, og vi takker jer for den ærlige feedback, som hjælper os med at blive bedre.

Great fun, experience a night as if you are a local!

We had a wonderful time along with primarily international tourists and locals alike. We met folks from Uzbekistan, Turkey and Kazakhstan! Go with an open mind to simply having fun and enjoying the entertainment (terrific folk dances). Staff was exceptionally caring, & helpful despite language barriers at times. We opted for the alcohol package which included 2 drinks each- additional cost is €5 Euros each. Food very good. Traditional. Be in touch in advance if you require transportation. Most reviews are found on trip adviser if more information is needed. The photographer is excellent and pictures came out very good despite our ambivalence in being photographed we ended up purchasing some.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your lovely experience. We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the show, the atmosphere, and the care provided by our team. It’s great to hear that the food, entertainment, and photos all met your expectations. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another memorable evening.
