Gulet rentals

Why should I rent a gulet?

A gulet rental is a perfect way to enjoy a traditional sailing experience. They are classic wooden boats that have originated in Turkey. These large vessels allow you to cruise through the sparkling blue sea in a unique way. Typically, large groups choose to charter gulets as they can hold up to 30 people or more.

How much does a gulet charter cost?

There are several factors that can impact the price of a gulet charter. This includes the size of the vessel, the season, the number of passengers on board and the destination. For example, a gulet for 12 people in Bodrum during the high season could cost around €22,750 per week. In contrast, a gulet for 10 people in Athens during low seasons can cost around €3,500 per week.

Do I need a boat license to charter a gulet?

A boating license could be required to rent a gulet depending on the legislation of the destination you are sailing in. In addition to regional laws, boat owners can ask for a boating license if they please. Therefore, we suggest that you reach out to the boat owner before boarding your gulet to avoid any misunderstandings.

What are the best destinations for a gulet charter?

Due to their Turkish origins, the most popular destinations for gulet rentals are typically in Turkey or in surrounding countries. In particular, other popular destinations nearby include Greece and Croatia. Of these three countries, it is very common to have a magical sailing journey in Bodrum, Athens and Sibenik.

What is included in my gulet charter and what additional expenses can I expect?

There is typically a base rate for every gulet charter. This includes the rental period and any taxes. In addition to this, there can be other rates that the boat owner can choose to include. For example, they can add fuel consumption costs at the end of the journey. In other cases, they might also charge extra for optional amenities such as water sports, cooking and cleaning services. In order to avoid any confusion and surprise costs, we highly recommend contacting the boat owner prior to your gulet charter.
