I had an amazing experience on the **Bosphorus and Two Continents Tour**! From the moment I was picked up, the service was top-notch. The driver was punctual and friendly, and the entire process was seamless. Our guide gave clear, engaging explanations throughout the day, sharing fascinating history and local insights that brought each site to life. The itinerary was well-balanced — the Bosphorus cruise offered stunning views, and exploring both the European and Asian sides of Istanbul was a real highlight. Everything was well-organized, from transport to timing, and I felt well taken care of the entire time. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to truly experience the beauty and history of Istanbul in comfort and style.

We did the lunch time boat cruise which took about 3 hrs including transfers amd included lunch. We enjoyed being on the water to get a different perspective of Istanbul. I would recommend.
Istanbul is beautiful, our first time on the Asian side and it was amazing seeing the beautiful hills and views
Emre, our guide, did a great job of assessing our needs and capabilities and taking us to experience those older parts of Istanbul that were never going to see with our tour party. What a wonderful beginning to our holiday.
After two days of walking tours, it was nice to have a private bus (for our tour group) shuttle us around for the day. Our tour guide was fantastic and we learned a lot of Turkish history from him. He also had the perfect mix of guiding and explaining vs giving us time to ourselves to look and discuss on our own. All in all, a very nice day.
An excellent night boat cruise with dinner (&alcohol) and entertainment included. Very polite staff, good programme, scheduled comfortable transfer from and to the hotel. Absolutely good value for the money. All arranged by Mr Emre and his agency colleagues, excellent job!
We spent Wonderful time with Mr. Emre , he has good knowledge about Istanbul history and provided excellent service to my family. We were 8 people. Good personality. (boat tour + cable car + lunch).. also it was a sunny day, all the family had enjoyed it.
Bismillah It was our great holiday and tour in Turki with Mr Emre Önal was our tour guide. We went to see beautiful Bursa and it’s beautiful snowy mountain. We cruised the strait of Bosporus up to Buyukada. Staying in Istanbul was also a great chance to visit historic sites of Anatolia, including Blue Mosque, and its surrounding area. We also went to visit a great history site of Abu Ayoub Al Anshari. Spices market, grand market were among other places that were so enjoyable we have visited. Turki keeps a lot of beautiful and historical sites to visit. We also went to Kayseri, Cappadocia and had opportunity to visit our Australian friend living in Nevsheher. In general, Turki is very beautiful, the creativity of it people. The Turkish people were very welcoming by offering us with different democratic choices of tea, black tea, apple tea, etc. Love to come back one day Alhamdulillah
Emre and his team are awesome. They were professional, flexible and reliable. I booked a group tour for my family and friends as part of my wedding weekend. We had 40 guests and they all had an amazing time. The buses were clean and the tour was exceptional. I would recommend them a 100 times!!! Don’t hesitate, send Emre a message and book the tour!!
Boat ride was great . Lunch was incredible . Other stops were just average . It could have included a major sight like Grand bazaar or the Sofya
Bosphorus itself a magical place and to have the trip to two continents is an additional charm. You can enjoy the difference of the tow civilization watching the old and old cultures. Asian and Western touch is visible. Traveling under the Bosphorus bridge is interesting and it reminds you Golden Gate Bridge San Francisco
Un guía excelente, explicó cada detalle que consultamos. Nos sugiero los mejores sitios para tomar fotografías. Una experiencia inolvidable.
Emre is a very good travel guide. With his friendly nature and with a lot of motivation he knew how to bring us closer to the highlights of this tour. We would recommend it to others.
There were four of us and were delighted with our guide Emre. I enjoyed the contact before we came. Pleasant and professional guide French spoken perfectly well. I recommend.
Fantastic day with our guide Mr Emre Önal, rich in knowledge and perfect French. We discovered the Egyptian market, just before embarking on a superb cruise of almost 2 hours on the Bosphorus, along the 2 shores of Istanbul. Then lunch an excellent restaurant very colorful, whose name I forgot ( restaurant Kybele). We then went to the Asian side, for a breathtaking panoramic view of the 2 continents! Dense and unforgettable day with an incomparable guide! To do absolutely!!
