Optimal Seasons for Blue Cruise Experience
June and September offer warm enough weather for sunbathing without the extreme heat typical of mid-summer. If you are eager to indulge in swimming at any hour and adore soaking up the sun, July and August are ideal months. May and October unveil the tranquil charm of nature, making them wonderful times to visit as the beaches and coves are less frequented. Although there can be occasional short rain showers, they typically last just a few hours, allowing ample opportunity to enjoy the sun and gain some vitamin D!
Are Children Welcome?
Indeed, children are allowed on specific boats. We provide family-oriented tours, adults-only excursions, and tours spanning different age groups. • For mixed-age tours, children must be at least 6 years old. • In family tours, all ages are gracefully accepted, ensuring an enjoyable experience tailored to families preferences and needs.
Is Air Conditioning Necessary and When Should it be Used?
Gulet vessels have constrained energy resources, so it is advisable to limit air conditioning usage to about 6-7 hours daily. This approach helps preserve fuel and enhance the boat's operational efficacy. It also prolongs the generator's life while fostering eco-friendly practices by promoting natural ventilation. Nighttime generator operation can produce considerable noise, potentially disturbing fellow travelers. Hence, it is crucial to find the right balance between guest comfort and ecological accountability. Nevertheless, some Luxury Gulet Yachts do provide air conditioning options for 24 hours, so please inquire prior to booking.
Understanding Crew Gratuities
It is common practice to tip the crew once the cruise concludes. The tipping amount is subject to passenger discretion, with 5-10% of the charter fee being the standard in Turkey. Tips are generally given to the captain, who distributes them among the crew members.
Meals Provided During the Tour
This cruise operates on a full board basis, inclusive of: Breakfast Lunch Afternoon tea Dinner, with all meals prepared fresh onboard.
Can We Cater to Dietary Restrictions?
Absolutely. We are capable of accommodating a wide range of dietary preferences, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free options.
What to Bring?
Opt for soft bags as they are significantly easier to store in your cabin compared to rigid suitcases! A compact day pack is also wise for those optional shore excursions you may choose to enjoy. Ensure to bring at least two swimwear options as expect to spend plenty of time in them, alongside T-shirts, shorts, and some warmer clothing for the cool evenings in spring and autumn. It is essential to have a robust mosquito repellent and generous sunblock, as the combination of sea breeze, salt, and sun creates perfect tanning conditions! Don't forget quality sunglasses, a hat, and some soothing aloe vera gel or similar products to ease any sunburns you might acquire. If snorkeling is among your cherished activities, consider packing your own equipment to avoid having to adjust mask sizes repeatedly every time you take a plunge into the water. If you plan to sleep on deck while stargazing, a sleeping bag would be a smart addition, especially during the chillier months of spring and autumn. Furthermore, note that regular street shoes are not allowed aboard a yacht... walking barefoot is commonplace onboard! Nevertheless, soft-soled shoes for deck walking are completely acceptable.

• Basic toiletries - shampoo, tooth paste, soap etc.
• Sun lotions... lots of it. If you are the light-skin type, get SPF 25 or higher.
• A second pair of prescription glasses/contact lenses if you use those.
• Any specific prescription drug you may need.
• Antihistamine and/or cold/flu medicine.
• Aspirin or equivalent.
• Antibiotic /cortisone crème.
