Bosphorus Dinner Cruise With Folk Dance And Live Performances

The food was horrible! Needs much improvement.

We had an absolutely wonderful evening on the Turnatour Dinner Cruise, and it was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Istanbul. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was beautifully organized. Sailing between Europe and Asia while watching the illuminated palaces, bridges, and the stunning Istanbul skyline from the water was a breathtaking experience. The dinner was delicious and well-prepared, offering a great taste of local hospitality. The live traditional performances and music added a fantastic, lively energy to the night without feeling overwhelming. What truly made the evening stand out, though, was the impeccable service. The staff and crew were incredibly attentive, polite, and professional, making sure every guest felt special and well-taken care of. If you are looking for a premium, authentic, and memorable night out in Istanbul, I highly recommend Turnatour.

Great experience gives you a different aspect of Bosphorus shoreline at night

Good entertainment. Highlight of the evening for us was the photographer. Trip advisor did not called us in time for pick up even though we left a WhatsApp message.

Beautiful esperience on the Bosphorus by night, the view on Istanbul is amazing. Perfect service and very food dancers, only food was not really good, I advise to review the quality.

It was a nice tour with a cracking show program (folk dances, belly dance and a solo whirling dervish dance) service and food were good enough.

The experience was beyond our expectations, excellent service to the boat and on the boat. The meal and the drinks were very good and the show was amazing.

I went for a solo date.. The dedicated waiter Firhad did not leave me alone.. Stunning views and great companies.. We dance all night after the 5 folk dance performance which were so entertaining . Food can be improved.. But still it is good.

It was a very good experience. Very well organized and we have a lot of fun. The dinner was good and the show as well. We dance, sing a take many good photos of the city.

Amazing cruise tour with breathtaking views, world-class service, unforgettable sea adventures, endless joy, magical sunsets, and pure relaxation."

Concierge service, was picked up and dropped off at my hotel . Good food, show and of course beautiful view of the Istanbul night sky

The employees were attentive and personable. The atmosphere was great and loved the dancers!! The food was mediocre. There was no airflow thru the dining area which was stifling. Had to go onto the boat deck to get any breeze/relief.

Food was adequate but nothing special. Long tables hold many people and it felt a bit crampt when trying to get up. Dancing was fun to watch. Best part was going up on deck and viewing the shoreline from up above.

Very good party atmosphere. We enjoyed the music, foods and drinks :) also the service was excellent. Would recommend for night out!

Great cruise, great food… the views were lovely. the waiters were very friendly. Had to pay for pick up and drop off though 😟 Car was clean

The cruise was a great start to our stay in Istanbul. It was a Wonderful experience.! Well organised and amazing hospitality. Thank you for a lovely evening. 😊

Such a fun trip! The service was absolutely amazing especially the waiters. There was clear communication from the tour holders and it was so fun. Highly reccomend these guys for your tours/boat rides!!

Amazing tour with a splendid scenic. Good food accompanied with a spectacular folklore dances. Good customer service and the personnel are very nice. But prefer an open buffet for fuzzy customers.

It was a tour to remember. Awesome views, excellent service, great food. Entertainment was was fantastic. I had a blast.

It was one of the best evenings we spent on the cruise. From pick up to drop off’ everything was very well managed. Loved it

Excellent foods and view. Nice waiters and waitresses. The musical show was entertaining. I could recommend for everyone

The food was pretty good, the crew were very nice. The night view from the boat was excellent. The performances were great but many people stood up and blocked the view.

The first course of meal for two persons in our family did not arrive till about an hour after we reached when all other guests were served already. Performances and dances were average. Servers (Mustafa) was extremely pushy about tips inspite of the poor service. While the cruise was on there was no audio available to inform about the places or buildings we were crossing. There was no one even making occasional announcements. It all seemed very chaotic. Food quality was average and the duration of the cruise was satisfactory. Overall cleanliness and hygienic was satisfactory.

Very helpful team. We had a wonderful experience. The transfer was a breeze. Would highly recommend. Thank you for all your help.

Absolutely loved the Bosphorus dinner and dance show cruise! Everything was so well organized—from timely pickup and great communication to superb service throughout. The food exceeded our expectations, and we really enjoyed the local wine and beer. The dancers were incredibly fun, and by the end, the whole hall was dancing! Relaxing on the deck with the sea breeze and stunning evening views of Istanbul was the cherry on top. Highly recommend!

Great trip ! We all enjoyed , excellent value for money . The floor show was very good , the music where we were seated was v loud , The food was enjoyable and the table service excellent

My family and I had an amazing experience. Best turkish night we've been so far! Very good service, stuff, music and atmosphere 👌

Fun ride. Lots of things going on. Great views at night from the boat. Easy experience. Good for kids. Ride from hotel was good.

A very good cruise, attentive staff, great views, and very professional dancers. The food was perhaps a little weak and limited, but it didn't detract from the rest.

Since we did a night tour, we barely had any views but loved the entertainment provided within the cruise ship. I would have preferred sitting at a better spot, the waiters and other guests blocked our view of the dances (since we were at the back).

Everything was fine, highly recommended punctuality, availability and professionalism to visit a wonderful metropolis.

I had an amazing experience with a truly supportive team throughout the journey. From start to finish, everything was well-organized, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. If you're considering exploring Istanbul, I highly recommend giving this a try. The city itself is stunning, full of history, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality. This experience made discovering Istanbul even more special. Whether you're going solo or with friends, you’ll feel welcomed and taken care of. Don't miss the chance—this is something you’ll remember fondly for years to come. Truly worth every moment!

Really glad that I booked this excursion. I was picked up by a mini bus, which was great, as a female solo traveller. Dropped off at the boat. Had a lovely dinner with scenic views of the Bosphorus at night, with great entertainment. I very much enjoyed watching the dancers, then getting up on the dance floor to the DJ afterwards. Love the Turkish pop music ❤️ . Then, I was dropped off safely at my hotel afterwards. Waiters were friendly with excellent service. Thankyou it was the highlight to my trip.

Service was excellenr and we had a fun like gamily event. We will definitely come again. Iwill rese4ve it before our next trip will starr.

Αmazing experience,tasty food,astonishing dance show and breathtaking views.The pickup service was a big advantage and the staff was friendly and highly professional overall.Highly recommended when in Istanbul.

Fantastic view and perfect tour everything is well organised thank you so much guys for your effort and dance show is very good

When we arrived they didn’t have us as on the cruise, they put us on a table with people drinking alcohol. Someone spilt a beer all over my wife when we sat down and was rude so we left before it started. All in all a terrible experience and I would not recommend it unless you want to be showered in beer when you get on. I complained to Viator and the tour operator but they refused to give me a refund and acted like I made the whole thing up.

everything was perfect, good food, amazing dances, best waiter! I would really like to recommend it. also the value for money is high

Amazing vibe, views, music, food and Turkish culture/dance showcase. Highly recommend experiencing this cruise dinner, although wished for the photo album for a little cheaper..

It was difficult to see the show because we were sat on the front of the vessel. People were standing up to see the show, making it impossible for us to take a pick of the dancers.

Counted about 7 ferries, ferrying exhausted tourists, and crisscross across Bosphorus. Food average drinks warm. Tradional dancing ok. Views were incredible non the less.

Every thing was fantastic , service the food the dance amazing thank you ! If you want to have a best time , it is the best !

The boat owner asked me to remove my review and he would refund my money. I did remove and he did not refund. The boat was packed and the salads were on the table when we arrived. They were wilted and sad looking. This experience was not what we expected and left before leaving the dock.

The dancers were very good. Food was average and the waiters were rushed which made the service well below par.

Very good experience. Door to door service with high quality food and entertainment. Well coordinated by the service provider. Must do event in Istanbul.

I don’t normally do stuff like this but I was looking for an evening cruise and I couldn’t turn it down at such a good price. Particularly because hotel transfers was also included. I knew food was included as well as some entertainment. The starter wasn’t my thing but the main course was good and the dessert was excellent. I didn’t realise it was a 3 course meals. One thing I would say is, be prepared to wait between courses as there is a long wait. Our waiter was very attentive so we always had a drink in hand so that made up for it. The traditional dance group they had which I think had 4 guys as well as the 3 ladies was amazing! My score and experience was fully about them. They do a dance or 2, go away, change and come back and do some more. The belly dancer was good but I enjoyed them more. The whole atmosphere was very upbeat with a great vibe. This was the best thing I did in the 2 days I spent in Istanbul and I would highly recommend it to anyone as there was other solos, couples, groups of friends and families.

Great choice if you just wanna get away and have some fun with friends. The food was ok, but cold, and not the best taste. The show was also ok, if you are close to the middle of the ship then you get to see everything, otherwise forget about it. Music was good. Overall not a wow experience, but for the price I would say I recommend it.

Great experience! You really have to do this in Istanbul. Dinner was ok and all the performances were fantastic. It was a dance party at the end.

Great views! We enjoyed the shows. Good food and great customer service. Awsome experience we will recommend to our friends
