Reviews: Istanbul: Bosphorus Sunset Cruise with Drinks & Snack
Guest User2026-01-31
We came to Istanbul for just a couple of days in January. We planned to take a stroll, but it was very cold and rainy outside. Nevertheless, we decided to take a Bosphorus cruise. We chose a tour on trip.com because we could pay with a Russian card and the price was cheaper than what we were being offered on the street. After reading reviews, we opted for the snack-only package, and we didn't regret it. Firstly, we were allowed on the boat almost an hour before the tour itself, and we sat at a table in a warm, dry room instead of freezing in the rain. We downloaded an audio guide in advance, and it turned out to be a very interesting ride, listening to it. The cruise itself lasts two hours. We mostly looked out the window because it was very cold outside, and everything was visible (we looked at the route in advance and sat by the left window so we could see everything). Snacks included a fruit plate, cookies, and drinks (tea, coffee, soda). We met the staff; they sat with us at the table for half the journey and chatted very friendly with my husband. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience on this tour.★

Reviews: Istanbul: City Highlights Tour w/Hagia Sophia & Blue Mosque
Guest User2026-01-09
The Guide was knowledgeable and very nice, he encouraged us to ask questions, and answered them without an issue. Transport was nice and on time. However, I would appreciate if the activity provider included an option with entrance fee to Hagia Sofia, so we didn't need to purchase the tickets from the guide on the spot.★

Reviews: Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace & Harem Skip-the-Line Entry
Guest User2026-01-05
A beautiful, well-preserved palace with excellent views of the Bosphorus. Easily accessible by public transport. It's highly recommended to buy tickets in advance to avoid queuing. Bring headphones to listen to the audio guide on your phone. The audio guide provided by the tour operator doesn't match the numbers on the palace signs.★

Reviews: Bursa & Uludag Mountain from Istanbul W/ Pickup&Lunch Optional Cable Car -Teleferik Ticket
Guest User2026-01-27
A fairly standard trip.
Having spent too much time in Istanbul and nowhere to go, I decided to try this tour. The driver picked me up from the hotel around 8 AM and didn't arrive back until 11 PM, a very long time – basically half the day was spent in the car.
The first stop was a motocross ride near Yalova (optional, at your own expense). If you didn't ride, you'd just have to wait there; there was no scenery to speak of. The second stop was a candy shop – ridiculously expensive, we only stayed for an hour. The third stop was a visit to a large tree – another standard attraction, offering a panoramic view of Bursa. The fourth stop was lunch. The fifth stop was a mountaintop ride with a cable car (optional, not included in the tour price). If you didn't ride, you'd just have to wait there. The sixth stop was a cable car ride from the top of the mountain to the bottom (included in the tour price), the scenery was quite nice. The seventh stop was visiting two churches in Bursa, and then we returned to Istanbul, concluding the trip.
Overall, there aren't any particularly special sights, especially since the entire day is essentially a bus tour if you don't participate in the optional excursions. The biggest highlight is the cable car ride down the mountain at the end. I wouldn't recommend making a special trip for it; it's only suitable for people like me who have been in Istanbul for too long and have nowhere else to go. Also, if you do choose to participate, be sure to bring your own food. The tour only provides lunch around 3 PM; from 8 AM to 11 PM, you'll have to fend for yourself, as prices at the tourist attractions are shockingly high.
Personally, I still really enjoyed it because I'd never seen snow before, and the snow-covered scenery on the mountain was absolutely stunning.
