Why is the list of “award winning / highly recommended yachts” so useful for me.

• It will provide you with a clear idea of the best available option for your yacht charter
• It will help you better understand and determine your preferences and expectations
• It will help us to tailor a search of the most appropriate yachts for you, and negotiate the best price with the yacht owner/s

There are thousands of yachts for charter, and selecting the one that best suits your group’s preferences, budget, and taste is challenging, especially if you are a first-time charterer. 

Our hand-picked, “award-winning”, highly recommended yachts are the best in class. The list will give you a clear understanding of what is possible, and the costs, without the need to cross-reference against the hundreds of other yachts. The list provides a refined, personalized selection of up to 10 vessels, across different price ranges, so you can make an informed decision.

It will highlight the best “value for money” yachts; and subject to availability on your chosen dates at the destination you desire, everything will come together for a memorable experience at sea.

This is a process of elimination that will deliver the most appropriate yacht for your holiday.

How do I ensure the most suitable final selection? 

It is crucial that we, at Goolets, gain a thorough understanding of your preferences and expectations from the beginning, so that we can undertake a comprehensive, tailored search. Please consider the following:

• Do you prefer modern or classic yachts? 
• Do you prioritize the size of the yacht or the age of the yacht? 
• What do you expect from your crew? Highly attentive at all times, or more in the background?
• Would you prefer a younger crew, full of energy and sociable; or less so?
• Do you need a faster yacht to explore more places and cover more ground, or is this not so important?
• Do you prefer larger cabins and a spacious salon/living area, or you are more of an outdoor person?
• Do you prefer a more luxurious yacht, or to allocate more of your budget to food/beverages and activities (water sports/land excursions/tours/bike rental, etc)?

Once we have noted your preferences, we will compile a shortlist of possibilities comprising 5 to 10 yachts of varying specifications (size, interior style, type of crew, etc); following which, we will narrow this down to 2 or 3 options, all of which would make excellent choices. 

This process can be repeated with multiple permutations to arrive at the most suitable selection.

This process - refined over the past 15 years - delivers successful charters and satisfied customers.

What is the cost of a yacht charter? 

We specialize in crewed vessels, where prices can range anywhere from € 5,000 per week up to more than € 1 million per week. Most of our charters fall into three price levels: 

• From € 10,000 to € 30,000 per week
: This price range has the largest variety of yachts, and includes smaller vessels - motor and sail, gulets, classic yachts, and catamarans.  When booking, it is important to ensure proper maintenance inspections have been carried out, and the crews are professionally trained, speak fluent English, and can provide excellent service.  Around 30% of our customers book vessels in this range. 
• From € 30,000 to € 100,000 per week:
 This price level is becoming more popular every season. It includes a wide range of yachts, traditional and modern. These are high-specification vessels offering every imaginable comfort. Around 50% of our clients book yachts in this price range. 
• From € 100,000 per week
: This price level includes ultra-luxury vessels such as mega yachts. These are the most highly sought-after charter yachts in the world, with a wide range of high-end water “toys” onboard - including jet skis, a helipad, and even a submarine. These charters are very bespoke and every detail is managed to cater to exacting requirements.  A small percentage of our clients book these superyachts. 

Is the cost of a personal charter manager included?

Yes, Goolets’ services are included in the base charter rate. 

Booking your holiday with us includes:

• A dedicated, personal yacht expert : one of our team will be assigned to you and will oversee every detail of your charter. 
• A personal concierge /customer support person : when you book a yacht with us, you will also be assigned a destination expert who can advise on routes, activities, and local cuisine.  She/he will help design your charter to your specifications to maximize your cruise.
• A destination manager : a person from within our team responsible for the time you spend ashore at each local destination / stop-off, ensuring a seamless and positive experience. 
• All these costs are incorporated into the base charter fee.  

How do you help me plan the itinerary?

For each destination, we provide all the most popular itineraries/routes that are being followed.

The first step is to go through the itinerary and determine your starting point. This usually covers check-in and check-out locations, and some of the highlights (islands, towns, nature parks, bays, locations), that you would prefer to visit.

Second, the tailor-made route is refined to maximize each port of call. You can elect to stay longer in some places and omit others.

Third, we customize your itinerary according to your group structure and preferences. If you have small children or teenagers, or if you are an active group of older people traveling without children, or if you are in your 30s traveling with friends who like to party, you can all follow the same route. You can all arrive at the same island, for example, yet experience it in a completely different way:

• Families with young children: we will find the best and safest sandy beaches where you can swim and relax 
• Teenagers might enjoy activities such as water sports
• Older groups may wish to visit historic places, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant, or visit a wine cellar
• Those who like to party might wish to sleep during the day and stay up til the wee hours.

TURKEY GULET YACHT

A gulet is a classic wooden, motorized, and sailing boat that is perfect for long sea voyages and close-to-land cruises.

Traditional Turkish gulets are made-to-order boats that skilled artisans construct from wood. Because they provide a very comfortable cruising experience, gulets, often referred to as motor sailboats, are perfect for coastal excursions and lengthy sea cruises.

We are aware that the first gulet construction began in Turkey’s Bodrum region. However, production is also taking place in Bozburun, Marmaris, Fethiye, and Istanbul as a result of the expanding market and demand.

Types of Gulets

Gulet: The gulet is the most well-known traditional yacht design for Blue Cruise. The dining table and seating area are located at the back of the gulets.

There is typically a sofa and enough sun pillows out front for everyone. The entrance to the cabins is through this hall, which features a dining table according to the size of the gulet and an interior hall.

The yacht’s round stern causes the guest quarters to be in the front, while the aft side is typically used as the technical area. The ability to sail is marginally superior to that of Aynakic gulets.

The AFT parts of Aynakic gulets are not round, as they are in gulets, but rather are in a structure with raised corners, which is a key characteristic that sets them apart from ordinary gulets.

They typically use this space for the suite room, or what we would refer to as the “master cabin.” All other details are the same as for gulets, with the exception of this characteristic.

Tirhandil is the oldest local wooden boat type with a pointed stern and the best-suited wooden yacht for sailing. Today, the equipment has changed from sloop to lifeboat and from sail to sail; the majority of them are three-corner sails.

They do not construct them on particularly lengthy decks, often between 15 and 25 meters, like other kinds. The same standards apply to their cabins. If you like sailing, this is the best option.

Accommodation on Gulets

Traditional Turkish gulets have evolved in appearance over time. A modern gulet today resembles a high-end floating hotel and can be anywhere between 15 and 55 meters (50 and 180 feet) in length. Gulet length and passenger capacity are not inversely related.

A 20-meter gulet, for instance, might contain three guest cabins or six. The cabins must be smaller in order to accommodate additional cabins of the same size. But in general, taller gulets make up vessels with six or more multi-cabs.

Every cabin on gulets of different shapes and sizes was created with the needs of the passenger in mind, including a bed, wardrobe, separate shower, and toilet.

However, extra comfort amenities like sofa sets, dressers, work desks, and jacuzzis are also available, depending on the size of the rooms and the level of luxury of the boat. There are separate cabins for personnel in the guest cabins.

Gulet Passenger Safety

On gulets, the welfare of the passengers comes first. As a result, each gulet contains numerous fuel and clean water tanks. Additionally, it features a complete set of navigation and safety equipment, including life jackets, fire extinguishers, GSM phones, and VHF radios.

All of these safety precautions and modern technologies prevent any potential emergency and enhance your seaside vacation.

Types of Gulet Charters

Private yacht charter: When you charter a gulet, the entire vessel—along with its crew—is yours for the duration of the rental period. Within the parameters outlined in your rental agreement, you are free to take any route during the rental term.

And you are not restricted to any set timetable; you can plan your vacation however you like. You can purchase our ready-made menu packages and avoid sticking to a typically restricted menu, just as you can shop for your rations.

Renting a private gulet is the perfect choice if you want to spend a luxurious vacation at sea with your family or enjoy the sea and entertainment with close friends.

For a trip you won’t forget and wish to repeat, choose from traditional, classic, luxury, or ultra-luxury yacht charter options to suit your needs and experience.

Cabin rentals : On a shared tour, one or more cabins may be rented. The schedule for the route, lunch times, and meal components remain the same.

The purpose of in-cabin trips, which they typically arrange on classic gulets, is to experience the spirit and joy of the Blue Cruise rather than taking a vacation on a luxury yacht. Let’s say you can’t organize enough groups to rent a private gulet or you go over your budget.

Then, a cabin rental could provide you with a relaxing blue-tour vacation. Renting a cabin will help you make the most of your vacation by allowing you to cruise in style, widen your circle of friends, and meet new acquaintances on the boat.

LUXURY GULET YACHT CHARTER

Where else can you enjoy the peace and quiet of the Blue Sea, which has everything you need to make up for the weariness of the whole year? In the Eastern Mediterranean and Aegean, where there are “Blue Weeks” that never end and warm seas, you can have a great vacation.

You can drink something cold and watch the sun go down. Or, if you want, you can tie up your boat in a busy port and enjoy the holiday mood of the people there.

Places like the blue coast of Turkey, the Greek islands, and the eastern shores of the Adriatic, Croatia, and Montenegro are also options.

For tourists looking for the sun, Turkey is very famous. Regular regional flights to international airports in southwest Turkey have made this place very easy to get to. A lot of people also visit places like Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye, Gocek, and Antalya during the long summer months. Each of these places is an area that can be part of the boat rental program.

Local tour operators, especially those from other parts of Europe, have a strong interest in the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea. The great thing about a gulet rental vacation is that you can visit some of these islands. Rhodes, Symi, and Kos all have ports that are close to the Turkish shore. These are great islands for people who want to see places in both areas. Between the Greek islands in the west and the many Greek islands in the north, you can mix and match a lot of different options.

Let’s say you have to choose between two routes that are very different. In that case, you can get more information about each area by getting in touch with us.

We are having a GREAT time – FANTASTIC.

The kitchen for example is superb. ….Oh yes, and I suppose it is only a formality, we are having a FANTASTIC time – don’t plan on going anywhere else ever!

This was a wonderful holiday , ‘Just brilliant ‘ said our son.  The villa,coast and landscape were lovely but what made it particularly special for us were the close and friendly links with local people and the community that are part of what John has built.

The Villa was excellent and in a really beautiful location, we can certainly see the attraction of Turkey and especially this particular location. You have certainly thought of everything when it comes to the ‘home from home’ features and the appliances, as the cook I couldn’t see anything that was missing from the kitchen.

A Spotlessly clean villa in a fantastic garden setting. It had every amenity we could wish for, and lots of ones that we didn’t expect. The pool was a great temperature and very refreshing, being free from chlorine, and the barbecue area was excellent. I will definitely recommend your villas to others.

Perfect villa, perfect location, perfect holiday…

The villa was perfect and we really enjoyed it.  I thought the amount of care you have put into furnishing it shone through and makes the holiday even more enjoyable. Thanks and well done on achieving such beautiful villas in keeping with the surroundings. Loved the village and the people are so friendly and kind.

If ever there was an advert for the pleasure of a more rural and relaxed way of life this is it. Thanks for discovering this idyllic spot and then sharing it with others! Can’t wait to recharge our batteries again next year.

We had a fantastic holiday in Orhaniye and your beautiful villa, you have certainly thought of every thing that we would need to make a very comfortable stay in villa Lale. The Turkish people, especially the neighbours are really friendly. We will be thinking of returning again, hopefully next year.

I’m pleased to say that the villa is every bit as good as you described it if not better. We all had a fabulous time and everyone really enjoyed it. I will send you a few of the hundreds of photos we took – they might be good for you to use to show how family oriented the villa can be. Can you pass our thanks on to the team for looking after us and we look forward to returning in the near future.

We had a great time at Orhaniye and Villa Lale. The villa had everything we needed (even the toaster) and the skype phone was a particularly thoughtful and very useful accessory. The peace and tranquility that the villa provides is priceless.

Villa Nurtan far exceeded our expectations…To enjoy such a beautiful house, Orhaniye and the warmth of the local people was a wonderful experience. The gardens are beautiful. We particularly enjoyed the chlorine free waters of the pool. We’ve had a lovely, lovely holiday…

We really had an enchanting holiday in the Villa, really special. Loved the people, the culture, and all the lovely people who looked after us. The aspect was well and truly awesome, can’t wait to return.

We have to say it was wonderful to stop in your villa. It is quite superb in terms of quality and location. the pool was just the place to dive into after a strenuous morning reading and tasting the local “EFES”.

We had a wonderful week at Villa Nurtan: you have created a very beautiful place. We were very happy with our stay, and would happily recommend Villa Nurtan to our friends.

The villa was immaculate with stunning surroundings. Orhaniye is a perfect place to relax and unwind. It’s peaceful and beautiful to explore. The smells of the flowers will bring me and my partner back alone. Can’t wait to come back.

A magical villa in an exceptional village with the most glorious people,  I would recommend this beautiful villa to anyone looking for that special holiday experience.

What an awesome place!I felt like a king being able to return to Villa Nurtan after being out for the day. The quality of the whole place is incredible!In between relaxing I was busy taking photos to send back home (to gloat about where I was!). An amazing place that I cannot wait to return to. I’d recommend it to anyone! It truly is a luxury villa!

Beautiful villa,beautiful location. Would definitely recommend this villa to anyone who enjoys the good things in life.

This is our second visit to Turkey – but – this one gave us a real sense and taste of the Turkish Delights!

The perfect mix of a luxury chill out retreat, rural setting and accessibility to explore the Bozburun Peninsula, This was the best possible start to our married life! An amazing experience! Fantastic. Best two weeks we have ever had.

When we saw the villa being built last year we thought that it would be something special – and it is! What a team you have assembled! The guided tour was so helpful. Then we explored the ‘welcome pack’ and the furnishings and were almost awestruck by the thought put into them.

We have had the most glorious 2 weeks here and saddened by our departure tomorrow. We honestly do not want to leave!!  We thank you profusely for opening your home to us and for all the kind, generous and thoughtful touches and comforts of your “home away from home”. We have loved every minute, and have such fond memories  that will last a lifetime.

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe Villa Nurtan. If you haven’t stayed at John’s house before, I am sure you will now have discovered just how wonderful it is! ….sitting on the veranda of Villa Nurtan hearing the Iman’s ‘call to prayers’ is, for us, part of the wondrousness of Turkey and this Turkey/Orhaniye/Villa Nurtan experience.

Well what can we say … beautiful villa, wonderful location, great support team  – what else would you want?

What a stunning place! A wonderful villa set in the heart of breathtakingly beautiful scenery.

This is a beautiful villa and everything is perfect. The pool is amazing, the locals are welcoming, the food’s delicious and the scenery is unbelievable.

What an amazing place and what a wonderful week! The villa was just awesome and was a great base to explore an unspoilt, quiet part of Turkey. We were able to walk straight from the villa into stunning hills with their green forests and the Mediterranean is only ten minutes away in the other direction.

The website doesn’t do justice to the villa. It was everything we were hoping it would be and more. Only 25 minutes from Marmaris, but might as well have been 1,000 miles. The countryside is so peaceful and the local villages so picturesque, just what is needed to unwind and recharge the batteries.

This is our first visit to Turkey and our stay at your villa has been perfect. The villa is fantastic and very much a credit to John for making it such a wonderful holiday retreat. All in all, this has been one of our most enjoyable holidays and we will definitely return to do the other things time did not allow us on this occasion.

We had a fantastic visit!Must dos:Turn of all the lights in the villa and watch the shooting stars. Leave the pool lights on and watch the bats. Do a local boat trip. Support team were an absolute delight and made us feel really welcome.

I just wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic time last week in Turkey. The villa was excellent and we were well looked after by all your friends and colleagues. As we have enjoyed ourselves so much we would like to book the same week next year.

Thank you so much for such a fantastic holiday. You villa is absolutely stunning as is the surrounding village. I can honestly say that I don’t think I’ve ever been as relaxed in my life! Our whole ‘Turkey Experience’ has been one which will live long in the memory.

This has been one of the best holidays that we have ever had. The villa is superb and it has been lovely having the occasional Turkish tea with your team, who kept the pool immaculate.

Luxury Gulet Charter in Turkey | 8 Tips for Your Turkey Blue Cruise

What could be more idyllic than sailing on a private yacht in the Mediterranean, mooring up at otherwise inaccessible beaches and enjoying a delicious meal on board. Luxury gulet charter in Turkey has become increasingly popular, yet it’s surprisingly affordable. Here’s all you need to know about gulet charters, from the meaning of the expression blue cruise to the best Turkey itineraries.

Luxury Gulet Charter in Turkey

Turkish gulet charter is a wonderful way to explore the Mediterranean in style. Whether you’re an accomplished sailor or a complete novice, gulet cruising is suitable for everyone.

What is a Gulet?

A gulet is a wooden sailing boat that has been handmade by expert craftsmen. The word gulet is pronounced GOO-LET.

It is uncertain whether this comes from the Italian word goletta, the French word gouelette or the American word gullet. A gulet boat varies in size from 14-35 metres and has two or three masts.

Gulet boats are very comfortable, thanks to their heavily weighted hull and low profile. This makes them ideal for cruising the Mediterranean and means that passengers are unlikely to suffer from sea sickness.

They’re also equipped with all mod cons and are frequently used for luxury yacht charter. Some luxury gulets have hot tubs on deck or in the master bedroom.

Many come with jet skis, paddle boards, ringo rides, wakeboards and canoes.

Blue Cruise in Turkey

Gulets originated in Bodrum, Turkey but their popularity has spread to Croatia, Greece, Italy and Montenegro. Vacations on board these floating hotels are often referred to as blue cruises.

If you’re wondering what exactly is a blue cruise , also known as a blue voyage or blue tour is, it’s a Mediterranean sailing holiday on board a wooden sailing yacht. The name Blue Cruise came from the 1957 Turkish book Mavi Yolculuk by Azra Erhat about the author’s sailing trips around Turkey’s coastline.

It was also popularized by Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı, a writer, ecologist and humanist who is considered to be the first professional Turkish tourist guide. These days, blue cruises encompass any private gulet charter in Turkey.

Why Choose a Gulet Cruise?

As we mentioned, people of all sailing abilities will enjoy a Turkish gulet holiday. That’s because each one is manned by a skilled crew, who are responsible for sailing the gulet, looking after their guests and preparing tasty meals.

With gulet charters, you get total privacy and the freedom to go exactly where you want to, when you want to do so. There’s no queuing and the crew are on hand 24/7 to assist you.

Turkey is famous for its calm turquoise sea and bays that are only accessible by sea. There are 18 UNESCO World Heritage Sites and many other historical attractions.

Turkish people are known for their friendly hospitality. You’ll get to taste delicious Ottoman cuisine on board your gulet and in the local restaurants.

Although gulets have a traditional appearance, they boast every modern safety feature. Cabins have private showers and toilets and some have their own jacuzzi.

A typical day on board could include a period of cruising under motor, time at anchor for water sports, a nutritious meal on board and an afternoon spent exploring a picturesque local village.

How to Choose a Turkish Gulet Cruise?

There are a few steps that you should take when choosing your Turkish gulet cruise.

1. Decide your budget Luxury yachts tend to vary from 14.000 to 150.500 € per week. The price depends on the season, number of guests and category of yacht that you choose. It’s from 15-30% cheaper if you travel outside of the most popular times of year.

The price usually includes route planning, logistics assistance, support during the cruise and a personal assistant. Fuel, port and tourist taxes within Turkish waters are also generally covered as well as the yacht charter and crew.

Bear in mind that VAT, customs fees, any Greek port taxes, food and drink are additional charges. An Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) is generally used to manage any expenses.

2. Work out the number of guests The maximum number of guests is usually 20 passengers. Gulets are suitable for people of all ages, from young children to seniors and the itinerary and activities can be adapted to suit all those on board. Work out how many cabins you’d ideally need and whether you would like double or twin beds.

3. Determine your dates of travel Most blue cruises in Turkey are for one week but there’s lots to do for those who prefer a longer trip. If you are flexible on travel dates, it’s important to let your gulet charter company know so that they can propose a variety of options to you.

3. Pick a reputable luxury gulet charter company One of the most well established yacht charter companies is Turkey Luxury Gulets . With over 14 years of experience, they have organised over 650 luxury gulet charters. They have also done a lot of the legwork for you, by inspecting 573 luxury gulets which they’ve whittled down to just 50 of the top sailing yachts.

There are 24 luxury gulet experts on the team, who will advise you which boat fits your requirements best. They’ll then work with you to help tailor your route, select your ideal menus and arrange any activities. During your cruise, the Concierge Team is on call 24/7.

Turkey Gulet Itineraries

Private charter routes are usually very flexible. It’s important to decide which region of Turkey you’d like to explore as that will determine which port you embark from.

For example, Bodrum port is easily reached from Milas-Bodrum Airport (BJV). From here, you can sail to the Cyclades or Dodecanese islands in Greece or the Gulf of Gokova and Gulf of Hisaronu in Turkey.

Gocek, Fethiye and Marmaris are close to Dalaman Airport (DLM) . Explore Gocek Island, Kas or Kekova from there.

Here are some suggested Blue Voyage itineraries:

Bodrum – Gokova

This cruise starts in Bodrum , a charming city with a great mix of historic and contemporary attractions. Bodrum Castle dates from the 15th century and Bodrum Bazaar is a good place to pick up fashion bargains.

There are many luxurious boutiques and restaurants along the waterfront. Head next to Orak Island for a swim in the crystal clear waters, then to the fishing town of Cokertme.

After this, you can visit Seven Islands, including Kufre Bay and the English Port. From here, it’s onwards to Cleopatra Island which has a very distinctive type of sand, and to Karacasogut village.

The next day, head to Longoz Bay and Tuzla Bay for a forest walk and some watersports activities. The day after, Kargili Bay and Kisebuku are well worth a visit.

Explore the Byzantine ruins and travel on to Pabuc Burnu and Yaliciftlik Bay before returning to Bodrum.

Gocek – Fethiye

Gocek Island has many deluxe boutiques and bars on Turgut Ozal Street. From here, head to Cleopatra’s Bay to swim and snorkel among the ruins of the ancient baths.

Next, you can visit Tersane Island and Bedri Rahmi Bay. Fethiye is a charming town on the Turquoise Coast with many sandy beaches and hidden coves.

It’s also recommended to explore Olu Deniz, a pretty resort village with a very photogenic beach. Paragliding fans can get a bird’s eye view of the bay from Babadag Mountain.

Gemiler Island, Zeytin Island and Yassica Islands are your final recommended ports of call, before returning to Gocek.

Gockek – Kekova

Depart from Gocek for Tersane Island and explore the ancient ruined town, Telandria. See the Byzantine ruins and St Nicholas’s tomb at Gemiler Island, then sail on to Oludeniz and Butterfly Valley.

For a few weeks each Summer, the valley is full of butterflies, an amazing sight. From here it’s on to Yesilkoy and Kas, where there’s an ancient ampitheatre.

Theimussa bay is a good spot for a refreshing swim before heading to the unspoiled region of Kekova. Turunc Pinari and Kizil Island are your next recommended destinations.

Make sure to be at Kizil Island for sunset when the ancient stones turn crimson red. Yasica islands and Bedri Rahmi Bay should also be on your itinerary which finishes back in Gocek.

Marmaris – Bozburun Peninsula – Greek Islands

Marmaris is an elegant Turkish yachting resort, with a whole host of luxury shops and restaurants. From Marmaris, it’s on to Arap Islet, an uninhabited hidden gem and Bozburun.

If you are lucky to visit in turtle hatching season, you may spot baby turtles emerging from their shells. The 500 mile long Carian Trail is a popular hiking route.

Next, it’s time for a swim in DirsekBuku, before cruising to Bencik and Datca, a charming town close to the ancient city of Knidos. After this, sail towards the Greek Islands, in particular Symi and Rhodes, before returning to Marmaris.

What is the Food Like on a Luxury Gulet Cruise?

Turkish food is renowned for its nutritional value and great variety, a legacy of the Ottoman empire. It’s similar to Cyprus food and Greek cuisine in many ways.

All food menus can be personalized to meet your group’s dietary needs and preferences. The crew will source the best seasonal ingredients at local markets and shops.

Breakfast in Turkey is a filling affair, with a selection of local honey, jams and Turkish clotted cream as well as regional cheeses and bread. Shakshuka is a tasty dish of eggs, onions, spices and tomatoes.

Turkish mezze are a delicious range of small dishes and dips. These include smoked aubergine salad with mint and yogurt, gavurdagi salad with pomegranate, tomatoes and walnuts and muhammara dip with walnuts and red pepper paste.

Karniyarik is a popular dish with eggplant, fried chopped onions, tomatoes and garlic. Leave room for Turkish desserts such as revani semolina cake and the famous baklava pastries.

What Activities are Available on a Turkish Gulet Cruise?

If you can drag yourself away from the sunbathing on deck, there’s a wide range of activities on offer, depending on the gulet. These often include:

• Banana and Ringo Ride
• Board games
• Fishing 
• Shore excursions

What to Pack for a Gulet Cruise?

The advantage of Turkish gulet cruises is that you can see lots of different places without having to keep packing and unpacking. Casual, loose lightweight clothing in natural fibres is ideal.

Gulet Cruise Turkey Reviews

I was fortunate enough to experience first hand the fantastic service i was provided, by Caglar and his team. Would highly recommend and look forward to meeting and using their service again in 2023.

It was a very nice 7 day experience. We had a lot of fun and we will definitely repeat it. Food, service were all great. While waiting for a classic fish bread and salad, we found rich tables with many kinds of appetizers and main courses. Many thanks to all of you.

All in all it was a perfect holiday. Our every request was met with a smiling face by the kind and helpful staff. The cleanliness of the boat was by far the best we’ve ever been to. We would like to thank both the boat personnel and you who contributed to the organization.

It contributes a lot to the team that plans our holiday and provides service day and night. Our boat is perfect and the abrasive in the pictures. I had a very enjoyable time with canoe, water ski, paddle board, jet ski. We’ve already made a reservation for next year.

We had a wonderful holiday from the beginning to the last day. Mehmet Kaptan and his team hosted us very well. We still remember your rich tables and delicious meals. On behalf of our entire group, thank you again for everything. Hope to see you soon.
