    The boat and tea/coffee/cookies offered were nice. However, we expected a longer cruise (it was only 1.5 hours vs the advertised 2 hours), as well as more commentary on the sights. It was also a bit difficult to understand because the speakers inside were loud and the sound was fuzzy. But it was decent value for the price we paid.

    Our guide, Robert, was terrific. Funny, knowledgeable, personable. He spoke with everyone and gave us very helpful recommendations for the rest of our stay. The tour itself was great. Smaller boat than the typical big tour boats, so a more intimate experience.

    We used this company for airport transfers from IST airport to the city and from our hotel to SAW airport. Very reliable, nice vehicles, easy to book and great communication. Also paying a fixed price in Euros to the driver keeps things simple. Would recommend.

    We want on a three hour tour and it was extraordinary. Worth every penny. Our guide, Ismael Mert, was THE best guide we had in Turkey, and among the best guides we have had in all our world travels. He provided exactly the right amount of context for everything we saw, was patient with our questions, and kept us on schedule so that we could appreciate everything. He was extremely knowledgable about history. We did this tour on our first of three days in Istanbul, and it set us up for understanding so much while we were in town.

    We had a small of 6 altogether on this cruise. It was really well organized, from the hotel pick up, to the commentary on board, the stop at the Asian side of Istanbul for great tasting yoghurt with honey, to the drop off at our preferred location. The guide who gave the commentary on board had a great sense of humor and made the cruise fun. Highly recommended to go with Velena Travel on this cruise.

    We had a seamless experience for both airport pickup and drop-off. The cars were luxurious and the drivers were friendly. The price was much better than comparable services.

    Pretty nice tour! The yacht is comfortable, clean, and spacious. The crew received us in the pier and started just after everyone were joined together. Inside they offer snacks, fruits, and of course, tea! Viewing Istanbul from the Bosforo worthed!
