**An unforgettable Bosphorus sunset — pure magic from start to finish!**
As a travel advisor, I always look for experiences that combine beauty, comfort, and emotional impact — and this private Bosphorus sunset cruise absolutely delivered.
I traveled with a group of friends, and the WOW effect was immediate: the yacht was brand new, gleaming at the dock, and once on board, we were all enchanted. The interior was warm and elegant, with a sheltered area that still offered panoramic views on both sides. The upper deck was a dream, perfect for capturing stunning photos with a full 360° view of Istanbul.
We chose this experience to unwind at the end of the day, and it was both relaxing and fun. Seeing the surprised and delighted faces of my friends gave me such joy, I felt deeply satisfied with my choice, especially knowing how hard it is to pick among the many cruise options in Istanbul.
The two-hour duration was ideal: not too short, not too long. It allowed us to go beyond the classic Bosphorus highlights and discover a quieter, lesser-known side of the city, a truly enriching experience.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a refined, memorable way to enjoy Istanbul from the water. I’ll be suggesting this cruise to my clients with great confidence!

Excellent Experience, Great Create & Great Yacht!
I booked this for my wife's birthday. There were 8 of us - 5 adults and 3 kids. We just got back and it was excellent! The boat was spacious, new, clean and the captain and host were very friendly Turkish guys.We stopped maybe 20 minutes into the trip and the host jumped off to pick up dinner, which was a mixture of steak and fish. All brought on board from a local restaurant!After that we had Moet champagne, chocolate mouse cake and fruit to celebrate. It was a great 2 hour sunset cruise with lots of amazing sights and most importantly, my wife loved it!
A great afternoon in Istanbul - seeing the sights from the waters of Bosphorus.
A great tour. Relaxing 😎 and fun. It is a must do in Istanbul for families with young adults and teens. I recommend 2 hours and booking a guide additionally because then you will have a person explaining what is that you see from the boat.
My wife and I chartered Zoe for a private two hour evening cruise on the Bosphorus and we had a ball. Everything went seamlessly from the booking process through to the jetty pick-up near our hotel and return. The crew were fantastic and managed to give up plenty of private time with just enough input to highlight the numerous points of interest along the journey. Neither of us had ever experienced a "Super Yacht" before and we highly recommend anyone considering trying this experience to give it a go, you won't regret it!!
Great sunset cruise
We did the two hour sunset cruise from Kabatas Pier and it was perfect. The Zoe cruise accommodated our group of 8 well. We paid extra for a guide and he was very knowledgeable pointing out what we were seeing and the history. They well were punctual and good with communication in advance. I would definitely recommend.
Not to miss experience when visiting Istanbul.
This was the highlight of our trip to Istanbul. The crew was friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. Perfect service. There was a moment when we were near the entrance of the golden horn and the muezzin could be heard from both Asian and European shores, in stereo. Fantastic experience.
Sunset on the Bosporus
This was a must do experience!!! Our family loved seeing the Bosporous this way. It was so fun to go up the straight and seeing more of Istanbul from the water. We were so lucky to see the most magnificent sun set❤️! Our food on board ship was delicious. The captain and crew were so nice we had so much fun 🤩
Fantástica esperiencis, el yate, el servicio, todo maravilloso. Si queréis un crucero privado de lujo… no lo dudéis!!

Peaceful day at Sea.
We had a wonderful time going up the Bosphorus to the mouth of the Black Sea. The fishing village of Anadolu Kavagi was a beautiful and peaceful stop. The crew was informative and accomodating. We truly enjoyed the peaceful day. Thank you.
