Paseo agradable al atardecer

Viajé sola y me gustó mucho ver Estambul desde el agua al caer la tarde. El recorrido fue tranquilo, aunque el grupo era algo numeroso. Me pareció un plan fácil de encajar en el día y la salida puntual ayudó bastante. Lleven una chaqueta, porque refresca bastante fuera.

Nice sunset views, slightly crowded

As a first-time visitor, I enjoyed the skyline views, but the boat felt a little crowded and the commentary was sometimes hard to catch.
