Shared Cruises

Luxury gulet cruises for couples and solo travellers

We occassionally offered shared gulet cruises, allowing couples and solo travellers to cruise without booking the entire boat. These popular cruises are only offered a few times each year and generally sell-out quickly. We encourage you to book early if you'd like to join us on a shared adventure in 2021!

Luxury Gulet Cruises for Couples and Solo Travellers

While our primary business is hosting private cruises, we occassionally offer shared gulet cruises (also called "cabin charters") for couples and solo travelers. By sharing the boat and splitting costs with other like-minded guests, the price per cabin remains affordable for guests who appreciate the personal attention and niceties that come with luxury travel.

What Makes Our Shared Cruises so Special?

Besides cruising on an immaculately clean, comfortable gulet and enjoying spectacular scenery enroute, you will enjoy:

Each shared cruise is limited to a maximum of 8 guests to maximize comfort and personal attention.

Cruising During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The safety and peace of mind of guests and crew is our top priority. Please visit our Pandemic Response Plan to learn how we are addressing safety issues in the face of the novel Coronavirus.

Upcoming Shared Cruises

Cruise Kekova in September

A last minute addition to our schedule for 2021, this shared September cruise is a fabulous option for travellers who prefer to cruise when it's a little less crowded.

In our opinion, autumn is the best time to cruise in the Mediterranean. September offers warm days and slightly cooler nights, warm water for swimming and water sports, fewer crowds, and slightly lower prices than peak season.

If you are currently in Turkey, or can get here in September, why don't you join on this ever-popular, classic route along Turkey's picturesque and historic Lycian coast? Enjoy visits to Gemiler Island, Kaş, Kalkan, Simena, the Sunken City of Kekova, and Demre (home to the site of ancient Myra and the St. Nicholas Church).

Summer Solstice Göcek Islands Getaway

This was another cruise that didn't go as originally planned due to Covid-related flight cancellations and quarantines. But, on the date of departure, three families were able to join us for a relaxing 5 day holiday to mark the beginning of the summer cruise season. (The families who originally planned to come will join us in the future.)

Adjusting Our Sails to the Winds of Change - Our First Cruise of the 2021 Tour Season

This is a cruise which should have been named "Perseverence". Postponed from 2020 to 2021 due to Coronavirus, itinerary changed due to political dispute between Turkey and Greece, delayed a few more times due to lockdowns and curfews in Turkey, and only half capacity due to flight cancellations impacting guests travelling from the UK. We were delighted to finally welcome some guests aboard to start the 2021 cruise season!

The Pandemic meant our 2020 season didn't quite turn out as planned, and we were able to reschedule all shared cruises to 2021 to minimize risk to our guests and crew.
