We celebrated our first New Year’s as a married couple here, and it was perfect. Romantic views during dinner, then joining the big party. The belly dancer was mesmerizing. The countdown felt intimate despite the crowd. The included transportation made it so easy. A perfect start to our year.

An unbeatable venue for NYE. Where else can you dance under the stars with ancient palaces floating by? The mix of guests was wonderful. The entertainment schedule kept the momentum building perfectly towards midnight. The post-midnight DJ set was the perfect release. An incredible, iconic celebration.

¡Mágica! La palabra que define la noche. Todo era perfecto: la música, la gente, la comida, la bebida, el ambiente. El espectáculo de los derviches fue un momento de paz y belleza inesperado. Los fuegos artificiales nos dejaron sin palabras. Sin duda, la mejor Nochevieja de mi vida.

The grand finale to our year of travel. It encapsulated the magic of Istanbul: historic, vibrant, and welcoming. The party had a heart, thanks to the traditional performances. The logistics were flawless. Sailing back to the pier at 2 AM, tired and happy, we knew we’d just had a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Elena Fiore (verified owner) –
Esperienza superlativa. La cena è stata servita in tempi rapidi nonostante la capienza della nave. I piatti erano caldi e gustosi. Lo spettacolo delle 23:30 con la banda dal vivo e le percussioni ha scaldato l’atmosfera per il countdown. Mezzanotte sul Bosforo è un must assoluto.
Evelyn Harper (verified owner) –
Spectacular is an understatement. The fireworks choreographed over the Bosphorus bridges were a professional display, not just random explosions. The boat had heaters on the deck so we could enjoy the views without freezing. Thoughtful touches like that showed the level of planning. Exceptional.
Giovanni Russo (verified owner) –
Tradizione e modernità si fondono alla perfezione. Gli spettacoli folkloristici ti fanno sentire in Turchia, mentre il DJ dopo mezzanotte ti fa ballare come in qualsiasi capitale mondiale. La nave è il palcoscenico perfetto. Un Capodanno “esperienziale” nel vero senso della parola.
Sofia Costa (verified owner) –
Un recuerdo que atesoraremos siempre. Fue nuestra primera vez en Estambul y no pudimos haber elegido mejor forma de recibir el año. La amabilidad del personal, la calidad del espectáculo y la belleza del entorno nos conquistaron. ¡Volveremos para repetir la experiencia! Gracias por todo.

A masterclass in hosting a large-scale event. Flow was perfect, from dining to shows to dancing. The crew was everywhere, ensuring safety and fun. The inclusion of local drinks like raki and Turkish wine was a great touch. The 5-hour duration let you fully immerse without feeling rushed. Bravo.
Victoria Thorne (verified owner) –
Our group of 10 had the best time. There was something for everyone: history buffs loved the views, foodies loved the dinner, and our friends who love to dance didn’t leave the floor all night. The scheduled program meant we never had to think “what’s next?” It was all laid out for us. Perfect.
Oscar Miller (verified owner) –
A floating gala. It had the elegance of a formal dinner with the heart of a massive street party. The live music band was versatile, playing Turkish, English, and Spanish songs. The transition into the DJ set after midnight was seamless. The views of the city lights from the deck were priceless.
Daniel Park (verified owner) –
The undisputed highlight of our winter trip. It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for: a world-class event. The sound system handled both the live band and DJ perfectly. The dance floor was spacious. The views were constant and stunning. A flawless execution of a massive, complex party.
Michael Zhang (verified owner) –
The quintessential New Year’s celebration. It combined the excitement of a massive party with the uniqueness of Istanbul’s geography. The “welcome cocktail” was delicious. The fact that hotel transfer was included removed all stress. A brilliant, all-inclusive way to experience NYE in this magnificent city.
Valentina Costa (verified owner) –
Uno stupore continuo. Dallo sbarco sulla nave lussuosa allo spettacolo dei fuochi, ogni momento era speciale. Il programma è stato rispettato al minuto. Il clima a bordo era di festa ma anche di grande rispetto. Un’esperienza che consiglio a coppie, gruppi di amici e famiglie con figli grandi.
Elena Marchetti (verified owner) –
Una serata sfavillante! Dalle luci della città alle scintille dei fuochi, tutto brillava. L’organizzazione è stata impeccabile, nessuna confusione all’imbarco o allo sbarco. Il menù con cinque portate principali dava veramente l’idea di una cena di gala. Complimenti per la professionalità.
Sofia Mendes (verified owner) –
¡Espectacular de principio a fin! El barco es precioso y muy espacioso. La opción de vino, cerveza y raki ilimitados es un plus enorme. Los shows de baile son profesionales y muy entretenidos. Y la pirotecnia… ¡wow! Fue como si toda la ciudad estuviera celebrando con nosotros. 100% recomendado.

¡Una fiesta tan vibrante! La energía de los artistas se contagiaba al público. El show de percusión antes de la medianoche era adrenalina pura. La comida, especialmente los postres (baklava y fruta), estaba deliciosa. Fue la forma más emocionante y memorable de dar la bienvenida al 2024.
Thomas Reed (verified owner) –
Legendary. That’s the word. We’ve done NYE in many cities, but this one tops the list. The setting is unbeatable. The party favors at 23:30 were a fun touch that got everyone involved. The energy from the percussion show right before midnight was tribal and electric. An absolutely legendary night.
George O’Donnell (verified owner) –
A dazzling, sensory-overload in the best way. Lights from the city, lights from the boat, fireworks, colorful dance costumes. The smell of delicious food, the sound of great music. It was all-consuming in the most fantastic way. You’re not just attending a party; you’re inside a living, breathing celebration.
Frederick Schmidt (verified owner) –
Glamour, fun, and fireworks. This cruise offered a glamorous alternative to crowded bars. The boat’s interior was sleek and modern. The air conditioning was a blessing. The Turkish folk dance team’s energy was infectious—they got the whole room clapping. A sophisticated yet wildly fun party.
Leo van Dijk (verified owner) –
A cultural immersion and a party rolled into one. We learned about Turkish dances like Horon and Kafkas, which was fascinating. Then, we partied like it was a global celebration. The mix was perfect. The midnight champagne toast as fireworks erupted is a memory seared into my mind. Magnificent.
Carmen Diaz (verified owner) –
¡Épica! Así definiría la noche. La cena con 5 platos principales para elegir era de restaurante bueno. Los camareros eran unos profesionales. El espacio en la cubierta para ver los fuegos era amplio, no había que empujar. Una organización de lujo para una noche de lujo. Repetiré sin duda.

Un tripudio di colori, suoni e sapori. La serata ha avuto tutto: eleganza, folklore, divertimento sfrenato. Il personale era sempre sorridente e disponibile. La mezzanotte sul Bosforo, con il cielo che esplode di luce, è un’immagine che porterò sempre nel cuore. Grazie per un Capodanno perfetto!
Ana Martinez (verified owner) –
¡Los fuegos artificiales! Solo por eso ya vale la pena. Pero es que todo lo demás también estuvo genial. La banda en vivo de las 22:00 era muy buena y tocaba canciones conocidas. El falafel como opción principal para vegetarianos fue un detalle apreciado. Fue una fiesta increíblemente inclusiva y divertida.
Francesca Gatti (verified owner) –
Indescrivibile. Devi viverlo per crederci. La combinazione di luci, musica, balli, cibo e quella vista mozzafiato crea un mix esplosivo di emozioni. L’equipaggio è stato fantastico, sempre attento. Il rientro in hotel incluso ci ha fatto sentire coccolati fino alla fine. Esperienza top.

El ambiente era lo mejor. Alegre, seguro y muy festivo. La música del DJ de las 00:30 era moderna y hacía bailar a todo el mundo. La decoración del barco con motivos de Año Nuevo estaba muy lograda. La atención en las barras era rápida a pesar de estar lleno. Una fiesta redonda.
William Knight (verified owner) –
Extravagance done right. It felt luxurious without being stuffy. The open bar meant no constantly pulling out your wallet. The entertainment was first-class. And the setting… sailing the Bosphorus on New Year’s Eve is just the pinnacle. It’s an investment in an unforgettable experience.
Arthur Bennett (verified owner) –
A masterpiece of event planning. Timing was perfect, crowd management was excellent, and the quality of every element (food, drink, entertainment) was high. Watching the illuminated Rumeli Fortress glide by while holding a champagne flute… that’s a moment of pure luxury and joy.

Una meraviglia organizzativa. Per una festa così grande, tutto è scorso liscio. Gli spettacoli si susseguivano senza pause lunghe. La cena era servita calda e ben presentata. Il momento del conto alla rovescia è stato carico di un’energia positiva incredibile. Esperienza da vivere almeno una volta.

¡Inolvidable! La atmósfera era increíble, muy internacional. Los espectáculos de danza, especialmente el baile romano, eran muy energéticos y el público se enganchaba. La cena con tantas opciones fue un acierto. Y la vuelta al muelle a las 2 am fue tranquila, todos felices y cansados. ¡Genial!
Marta Lopez (verified owner) –
¡Fenomenal! Todo el mundo debería experimentar el Año Nuevo en el Bósforo al menos una vez. La sensación de estar en medio del estrecho, con Europa a un lado y Asia al otro, mientras suenan los fuegos artificiales, es sobrecogedora. La fiesta en el barco fue la mejor que he vivido. ¡Gracias!

An epic celebration. Sailing on the historic Bosphorus, surrounded by ancient wonders, while dancing to a pounding DJ set—it’s a surreal and amazing contrast. The crew kept the drinks coming and the mood high. The 5-hour duration was perfect; we were happily exhausted by the end. Brilliant.
Arthur Lloyd (verified owner) –
Midnight on the water with Istanbul’s skyline as your backdrop is unbeatable. The boat offered incredible, unobstructed views for the fireworks. The “special party favors” (glasses and whistles) at 23:30 really amplified the fun. A professional, safe, and incredibly fun way to welcome the new year.
Daniel O’Connell (verified owner) –
A spectacle from start to finish. Not just a party boat, but a moving theatre of Turkish culture followed by a world-class party. The whirling dervish performance was a moment of calm beauty before the storm of celebration. The organization behind such a large event was impressive.
Oliver Thorne (verified owner) –
If you’re in Istanbul for New Year’s, do this. Skip the crowded streets. This is the ultimate party. The energy from 22:00 with the live band and dance breaks was infectious. The unlimited raki and wine flowed freely. Making friends from all over the world while sailing past illuminated palaces… unforgettable.

Eine perfekt organisierte Silvesterparty! Das Boot ist groß, modern und hat eine fantastische Aussichtsterrasse. Das Unterhaltungsprogramm war abwechslungsreich und hochkarätig.

Victoria Lane (verified owner) –
Created core memories for a lifetime. The “Ak Çiçek” dance was so elegant. The countdown was pure, unadulterated joy—streamers, champagne, everyone hugging. Seeing the Maiden’s Tower lit up as we sailed by felt like a fairy tale. The crew worked tirelessly to keep everyone happy. Exceptional.
Lucia Brambilla (verified owner) –
Una favola di Capodanno. La dimensione della barca permette di non sentirsi mai in mezzo alla folla. I servizi sono ottimi, anche il bagno era pulito e ampio. Il personale è stato instancabile nel servire da bere. I fuochi d’artificio sembravano esplodere proprio sopra di noi. Emozionante!
Lucia Bianchi (verified owner) –
Serata favolosa! L’idea di festeggiare sull’acqua è già vincente, ma con questo livello di organizzazione diventa eccezionale. Il menù di pesce era fresco e ben cucinato. Lo spettacolo della danzatrice del ventre è stato sensuale e affascinante. Ambiente chic e party scatenato. Perfetto!
Elena Protti (verified owner) –
Serata stupenda. Il programma pubblicato è stato rispettato alla lettera, segno di grande professionalità. Lo spettacolo “Naz Eleme” è stato molto grazioso. La vista del Palazzo di Dolmabahçe illuminato mentre si cena è da cartolina. Un Capodanno chic, sicuro e super divertente.
Clara Schmidt (verified owner) –
¡La mejor manera de coger la neumonía del año! (¡es broma!). En serio, fue increíble. La calidez dentro del barco con el aire acondicionado contrastaba con las vistas frías y espectaculares fuera. El baile folclórico en grupo (Halay) hizo que todos participáramos. Una noche de lujo y diversión.

A cultural and party extravaganza rolled into one. Not just a generic party boat; it showcased amazing Turkish music and dance (the Horon was so energetic!).

Nathan Brooks (verified owner) –

A New Year’s extravaganza that delivers on all fronts. The dinner was a proper sit-down meal with great options. The unlimited local drinks let us sample Turkish beer and wine. And the entertainment… from folk to belly dance to a DJ, it never stopped. The midnight fireworks were the grand finale we dreamed of.
Benjamin Clarke (verified owner) –
The fireworks display was the most spectacular I’ve ever seen, made even better by the panoramic view from the water. The boat, Motor Yacht Turna, was massive and stable, with plenty of room to dance or find a quiet corner. The live band was fantastic, playing a great mix of international hits.

Chiara Lombardi (verified owner) –
Capodanno indimenticabile! L’atmosfera sulla nave era fantastica, tra musica live, balli tradizionali e lo spettacolo del Whirling Dervish che è stato magico. Il menu di cinque portate era squisito. Il culmine con i fuochi d’artificio sul Bosforo è stata un’emozione pura. Torneremo l’anno prossimo!

Energia esplosiva! La festa inizia dal cocktail di benvenuto e non si ferma più. Il DJ durante la cena ha messo una base perfetta. La nave ha due livelli principali e li abbiamo usati entrambi: uno per ballare e uno per socializzare. Mezzanotte sul Bosforo è un’esperienza che consiglio a tutti.
Eleanor Sharpe (verified owner) –
They thought of everything. Warm greetings, timed entertainment, unlimited drinks, and even party whistles. The size of the boat meant you could find a lively spot or a slightly quieter corner to chat. The views of Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia from the water at night were simply majestic.

Pure revelry on the Bosphorus! The open bar included local spirits like raki, which was fun to try. The dance floor was packed and bouncing from the folk dances right through to the DJ set at 2 AM. Wishing Happy New Year in a dozen languages while floating between Europe and Asia… just wow.

Unbelievable way to ring in 2026! The fireworks over the Bosphorus at midnight were absolutely epic, lighting up the sky between two continents. The energy on the boat was electric, the food was delicious (grilled sea bream was my favorite), and the unlimited drinks kept the party going. Best New Year’s ever!
