Better Than We Expected

We booked this cruise without really knowing what to expect, and it turned out to be such a fun night. The views of Istanbul from the Bosphorus were beautiful, the Turkish performances were entertaining, and the atmosphere on board was great. Everything was well organised, and we left with some amazing memories. Definitely worth doing if you’re in Istanbul.
