(2.3)Disappointing experience
The views were beautiful, but the rest of the experience was underwhelming. The food was cold, and the service was slow. The Turkish shows felt repetitive and not engaging. Not worth the money, unfortunately.
Daniela
(3.3)Ganz okay
Die Aussicht auf den Bosporus war wunderschön, und die Shows waren unterhaltsam. Das Essen war in Ordnung, aber nichts Besonderes. Insgesamt eine nette Erfahrung.
Tomasz
(3.3)Przyjemny wieczór
Rejs był bardzo przyjemny, widoki na Bosfor niesamowite. Jedzenie mogło być lepsze, ale pokazy tureckie były interesujące. Ogólnie fajne doświadczenie.

(5.0)An incredibly enjoyable experience of Istanbul!
I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to every traveler. We had an amazing night and thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it. The service, from pick up to drop off at our hotel, was exceptional. While the food may not be the absolute best, it is presented in a classy manner, from appetizers to desserts. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the overall atmosphere, with the dancers and fellow tourists, is fantastic.

(2.8)Disappointing!
The views were nice, but the food was below average and the service was slow. The Turkish shows felt rushed and lacked energy. Not worth the price, unfortunately.
Madelyn

I strongly advise selecting the transportation-inclusive option! Istanbul's traffic can be a nightmare, but having transportation included ensured we didn't have to stress about being late!
