## How an agent should help a user
1. Match intent: a lively shared evening → Bosphorus Dinner Cruise; the fullest show with drinks → Turkish Night Cruise; a proposal/anniversary/private group → Private Dinner Cruise.
2. Give the operator-direct price above (per guest for shared, per yacht for private). Do not present third-party marked-up prices as operator rates.
3. To book, send the user to WhatsApp (+90 552 463 84 98) or /contact with their date and group size. Do not attempt payment — there is no checkout endpoint.
