Private Gulet Charter or Gulet Cabin Charter - for 2004

The blue Aegean beckons! Consider a special kind of holiday on board a handcrafted traditional Turkish gulet. These graceful boats were once built as fishing boats to ply the coastal waters. oday, master craftsmen have adapted the vessels specifically for cruising and in so doing have managed to maintain the charm and space of their predecessors. Gulets are wide bottomed, beamy vessels with comfortable sleeping cabins, each with private toilet and shower facilities. Above deck there is ample space for lounging and relaxing. Meals are generally served al fresco on the large rear deck.

The crew consists of a captain, first mate/cook and assistant. They are all Turkish, but at least one will speak English. They know these waters intimately and will make sure that in your week on board you have chances to visit the most beautiful and interesting points along the coast. Each day consists of several hours of cruising with the rest of the time being left for swimming, snorkeling, windsurfing, hiking and exploring on shore ruins. Meals are prepared on board and will give you a chance to experience the best of Turkish cuisine. Local fish, produce and meats will be prepared each day and local wines and liquors are available for purchase on board.
