“Thank you very much for the organization of our trip on Babosch. It went really well. My wife, at first, not so sure she would like it was surprised and enjoyed very much the hole experience. The crew was very kind and professional, Nazmieh the cook was really great. The captain had excellent ideas for our itinerary, and Urug was very kind and helpful. The boat was very comfortable, in good condition with enough room for us 4 adults and 3 7 years old boys.”

“One week on board M/Y Cataleya – South Dalmatian Route – July 2022
Its fantastic !!! – it has exceeded our High expectations.
The captain and his crew were excellent – clever and very, very service minded and creating a friendly relaxed atmosphere, so the whole family ( 17 people ranging from 6 to 74 years) was enjoying every minute on board or swimming or in town in the evening.
The yacht is so well equipped – clean, teak deck, mahogany varnished by experts, air condition, wi-fi and god design. – and of course all the water toys for the youngsters. – and not to forget the dinning and drinking!
Ahmet, Gulet Escapes in London, did an outstanding job professionally orchestrating all the preparations incl. transfers in Dubrovnik area – great thanks to Ahmet!
On a scale from 1 to 5 we are all on 10!

“We have just had the most amazing week on Dear Lila in Turkey. The food was superb and the crew that were looking after us were truly exceptional!
The boat has ample space, the scenery stunning and I really don’t know how the chef created the meals she did for 12. Nothing was any problem.
Swimming with turtles was certainly a highlight.”

“Thank you so much Ahmet. You put together an amazing yacht experience that we will never forget. 9 friends and I have just came back from a week in Greece. Gulet escapes managed the full booking process seemingly. Our boat Ecce Navigo was stunning. The crew really made our trip even better with total professionalism, incredible food and always going the extra mile. I have literally 0 negatives about the full experience. Can’t wait to book another trip with Ahmet. Thank you so much.”

“We recently returned from the most beautiful holiday with Gulet Escapes.
We travelled as a large group of family and friends to celebrate my mum’s 70th birthday and stayed on Grace, departing from Bodrum.
Communication from the very first query was prompt and professional. Once the booking was confirmed they answered all my emails asking for general information.
From the moment we were on the boat the service was phenomenal. The staff were amazing and managed to anticipate what we wanted before we even realised. They all helped me to arrange a surprise evening for my mum and even joined in with the belly dancer performance.
We were happy to go with the Captain’s recommendation for our route but were kept up to date each day and shown the route. Captain was very visible ensuring that we were happy and satisfied with our trip.
However what was by far the best part was the food. Our chef had the unenviable task of cooking for 11 people and he certainly achieved it. From the breakfast which always had something new, to a wonderful long (and boozy) lunch, a baked cake at tea time and the tastiest dinners I have ever had. Food was hot, tasty and beautifully presented. We were all stunned by the quality of food he produced daily.
I loved my holiday on Grace, it was a true bucket list trip. I can genuinely recommend Gulet Escapes to provide you with a holiday of a lifetime.”

“I booked a gulet for 17 people in September and all of our party loved the trip, it’s just a pity we didn’t have a couple more days to spare to enjoy it even more. The boat really had the wow factor, the staff were just wonderful .. and joined in our impromptu party after dinner. The food was absolutely fantastic.. we had two vegetarians and a couple of people with allergies, and all were catered for. We docked in quiet bays in breathtaking scenery and had a fun climb up to the top of Gemiler island to watch the sunset. Would love to go back again to explore more. Thanks to Ahmet and all the team at Gulet escapes !”

“Gulet Escapes are Heaven on the High Seas.

Our trip – involving eighteen people flying in from multiple destinations at different times – was flawless from the point of booking to the point of departing the boat.

I will really struggle to give them credit.

We chartered Prenses Selin in October 2022 with eighteen people aged from three to fifty three and everything from eleven, sixteen, twenty and forty in-between. The trip was perfect for everyone.

Our boat was large and comfortable with multiple places to relax and sunbathe, comfortable beds, plenty of storage and remarkable stability even when underway. Nothing – literally nothing – was too much for the crew.

We moored in the best bays for snorkelling and space, never wanted for a cup of coffee or a drink and our cabins were cleaned daily.

The food was spectacular. Four meals daily – with assorted dishes to meet everyone’s needs: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner cooked absolutely fresh with more than we could collectively consume. We never saw the chef he was always in the galley whipping up another masterpiece. Fresh fish and seafood, salads, a variety of meat dishes – beef, chicken and lamb – pastas, rice and potatoes, gorgeous desserts, cakes, pancakes, eggs and omelettes, breads and sauces, stews and soups. The captain cooked a barbecue on the bow two nights.

Ahmet, who runs the UK side of the business is a pleasure to deal with. A whatsapp group is created with reps on the ground to organise excursions and transfers ahead of the trip.

Turgay, Mehmet, Murat, Ferro and Omar were the most wonderful team backed up by Melissa and Deniz.

The cruising location is nothing short of paradise: breathtaking green bays teeming with marine life and heavy with the fragrance of pine and woodsmoke. Glorious sunsets and shimmering seas.

Our Captain areanged an excursion up the Dalyan river to see Lycian ruins, enjoy mud baths and have lunch ashore. We had an hour with majestic turtle playing around our boat.

I have always been a fan of Turkey, I find the people warm, respectful, hospitable and gentle. The men adore children and even young men dote on them. It was a privilege to share this vessel with such lovely people.

This holiday is an affordable taste of luxury an unforgettable experience. I cannot recommend more highly.

Just make sure you save a boat for me!!”

“We’d like to say thank you for a wonderful and relaxing family holiday on board Grace. Ali is a great chef, Sami’s bar skills put Tom Cruise to shame and Captain Mustafa planned a great trip for us. Deniz and everyone else we met were very kind and helpful. Hope to come back soon!”

“We spent an amazing week on Lotus in late Aug/early Sept. Captain Roko and crew were fantastic. The quality of everything – the boat, the food, the service, the interactions with the crew were all first class. We were able to completely relax and everything was done effortlessly, or so it seemed from our perspective. Of the crew it is hard to pick out anyone for special mention but if anyone it goes to the chef. Every meal was a feast ! The quality of the food, the range of different courses and meals were amazing. To say the crew were relaxed yet professional is an understatement. Nothing was too much a burden and we never even noticed them despite the boat being kept in perfect conditions at all times. With the Split/Split week we did got to see some amazing islands and very quaint private inlets. I dont know how this holiday could have been better other than by staying for another week. But by then we would have needed to go on a serious diet ! Highly recommend Lotus for the finishings of the boat, the professionalism of the crew and the quality of the food. Captain Roko and Lotus will give you a very enjoyable holiday.”

“Hi Ahmet,
We are having a wonderful time. The crewmen are excellent—very helpful and very responsive. The food is scrumptious. I think the only issue—I can’t call it a complaint—is that they’re serving us too much food! As a family, we eat a light breakfast and an even lighter lunch; so we’re just not used to having so much delicious food put in front of us.And when I say delicious, I mean delicious. The fruits, the eggs, the pastries, the fish, the sauces, the vegetables, the salads, the cheeses: they’re all amazing.I should also note that the Croatian wines are superb. We’ll definitely add those to our home wine cellar when we’re back home. I’ll check back with you on Friday but, so far, this has been everything we hoped for…and more. Thank you!”

“Dear Ahmet,

As we are now back in Denmark, I shall be pleased to give you our feed back on the Capricorn 1 cruise primo august.

Expectations were high – prior everyone in the family had studied all aspects of a gulet cruise in The Aegean on the internet – and nobody were disappointed. You surely live up to what is expected!

The pre-booked transports from the airport were efficient and we arrived to Capricorn 1 in time with a warm welcome from the entire crew. The ship was maintained in perfect condition and so was all the cabins, which suited our needs fine. All 10 of us was satisfied with the accommodation.

But most of all we enjoyed the professionalism of the crew. With captain Eren we laid out a rough sailing schedule to the south of Kos – this due to experience with more windy conditions to the north of Kos. The captain knew his ship in all details and confidently moored in the most extraordinary places.

His wife Oz was service minded with a warm, friendly, professional attitude in all aspects, – the chef prepared a variation of wonderful meals for us – especially the Greek/Turkish salads, which were served with all meals, were delicious. The remainder of the crew were efficient and helpful – especially when the kids were swimming or played with the various water gear, the crew members held a discrete, but watchful eye on what was going on. Again very professional.

The preference list of provisions seems to have worked as intended. Except from having purchased some additional bottles of wine in Symi harbor the APA was OK according to the captains accounting. The split between the gasoline consumption of the main engine and the generator was a bit surprising, though. The generator used gasoline almost double of the main engine. But AC, electricity, kitchen stove, freezer etc probably consume more than you expect.

Sailing in the Dodecanese waters was highly interesting and we visited beautiful places both on the Greek and Turkish side.

So, Ahmet, our family had the most wonderful cruise on Capricorn 1 – she is a fine ship with superb accommodations and a professional crew.

Kind regards

Jan M.”

“Lovely to meet you in person last week – the gulet trip was a great success – Q. Lila was perfect so comfortable, well equipped and immaculately looked after by the crew. We had a super time especially the two idyllic moorings in kekova when the seas were calmer and the scenery stunning.

The crew were all marvellous, a great team nothing was too much trouble and they were such friendly charming characters to have around. Meals were thoughtful and delicious – their professional care exceeded expectations and we certainly felt very spoilt.

Thank you so much to you and Melissa as well for all your behind the scenes help and organisation ”

“My Dear Ahmet, and other Operations Team Members,

We are now all safely back home, albeit with only a few minor travel delays at UK airports – nothing to do with Gulet Escapes!

I can safely say that, without exception, all 16 of us had the most wonderful week on-board Prenses Selin, thanks entirely to everyone – the London and Fethiye teams of Gulet Escapes and, of course, the exemplary Captain and Crew of the vessel. None of the above deserves other than the highest possible praise for their attention, conduct, professionalism, care and courtesy, all of which contributed to this being, by far, the best of the four similar gulet holidays we have had over the years (all of the others being with other companies, and on other vessels)

The accommodation, food, cabins and facilities were all of the highest quality – although some cabins’ air conditioning was not as efficient as others – and the Captain was so accommodating in working with us to find a route/itinerary which suited us.

The vessel was, overall, in very good condition, with the interior and, particularly, the cabins in good decorative order. Any problems which arose were quickly and efficiently dealt with. The only adverse comment that I would make – and this is intended as constructive criticism – is that much of the woodwork on the exterior of the vessel, and particularly the forward rail, midships rail and taffrail appeared to be in need of enhanced treatment and maintenance; and the paintwork of the hull – especially close to the waterline – was in need of “touching-up” and, in some places it was bubbled and flaking badly.

One other very slight criticism was that, even after the first day or so – when the Crew would have been able to gauge to size of our appetites – meals tended to be “over-provided” in terms of the quantity of food (but the quality was excellent): this resulted in large quantities of food being left unconsumed at most meals with, presumably, a high degree of waste?

However, I am delighted to be able to report that every one of our group indicated that the whole experience had far-surpassed their expectations, and all expressed the wish to do something similar in 2024, with a very strong desire to use the same vessel and, if possible, the same Crew!

Perhaps you could kindly let me know whether, at this time, you have any idea if this may be possible?

Ahmet, I, finally, thank you once again for your kindness, consideration, courtesy and businesslike manner in our recent dealings, and I hope very much that we shall be able to work together again on a future occasion.

With thanks and very best wishes,

Yours,

Peter”

“We booked a last minute trip through Gulet Escapes on Sirena B in Croatia. From the start Ahmet was very helpful and accommodating considering the considerable eleventh hour of the booking. The week that we had on Sirena B was a very special holiday indeed (it was for my wife’s 40th). The crew were fantastic and really made us feel at home, the half board meals were tasty (especially the fresh chocolate croissants each morning), and the places that the crew took us were spectacular. Captain Miro really knows how to get the boat into the best anchor spots with turquoise water all around). Would definitely recommend Sirena B and booking through Gulet escapes because Ahmet has a very good relationship it seems with many of the boat owners. 5 stars.”

It was amazing.

“Our whole family had a perfect week on MV Aurum (embarked from Trogir, in Croatia) organised by Gulet Escapes.
The captain had been well briefed by Ahmet; so they fully understood our objectives, remote bays, lots of swimming (with lots of kit including that exhilarating ringo!) and most important, exceptional food. They had the uncanny knack of anticipating our requests, almost before we thought of them.
This was due in part to the briefing Ahmet gave to the captain before we arrived and a few thorough conversations we had with him during the booking process. Gulet Escapes were also totally reliable and professional, given that covid intervened and the cruise had to be rescheduled.”

“We were lucky enough to sneak a trip with Gulet Escapes in September – getting back just before quarantine was introduced. We spent two weeks in the Bodrum area, splitting our time between the Four Reasons Hotel in Yalikavak and a gulet (everything arranged by Gulet Escapes). We spent 3 nights in the hotel, 7 nights on the gulet and then another 4 back in the hotel. For us, this was the perfect combination.

Both hotel and gulet were superb and we loved every moment of the trip. The hotel was small, perched on a quiet hilltop and had stunning views. The gulet was fabulous – great crew, fun guests and a very comfortable experience. We hopped along the coast, stopping at pretty little villages and places to swim/snorkel. The weather was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed lazing around on the boat and enjoying the gentle breezes.

We will be going again and would highly recommend the experience.”

“My family and I have been chartering Gulets with Gulet Escapes for the past five years and I can only say great things about them. Normally we always charter in Bodrum and then sailed the Greek islands in the area. Due to Covid-19, this year Ahmet from Gulet Escpaes organized a Gulet in Croatia for us which was a great alternative to Turkey/Greece, but a bit more expensive. I’ve always found communication and the entire booking process to be very professional and Ahmet has always done his best to suit all our needs. Whilst Ahmet lives in London (he speaks absolutely perfect english) his sister lives in Bodrum and handles the check-in/out process which has always worked flawlessly thus far. I can definitely recommend Gulet Escapes and will continue working with them in the summers to come.”

We were a family with six teenagers, who were kept constantly entertained with kayaking, paddleboarding and there was a rib which was great for wakeboarding, skiing and ringo rides. It was a relaxing for us as well and we would not hesitate to book with them again.”

“What an amazing experience. Booked Grace through Gulet Escapes for a 4 night trip. Everything about the holiday was top class, from planning and organising by Ahmet, to the point where we sadly had to leave!
Holidaying on Grace was superb, with everything we needed on board provided to a very high standard. We toured a large part of the coast, stopping at interesting and beautiful places along the way. Staff were amazing, Captain Ismail, chef Ali, host Sami and deckhand Tuncay all provide a first class experience. The food in particular was outstanding. Would highly recommend Gulet Escapes!”

“We have just returned from another glorious week on Maske 2 which we booked with Gulet Escapes. The crew were very professional and friendly, the food was delicious. Gulet Escapes, as always provided us with a brilliant service and we can’t recommend them more. A Taking a Gulet is a proper holiday and a true way to unwind and relax, whether you are 8-80yrs it is fun for all ages and we can’t wait to go again.”

“We had a wonderful trip in August 2020. I would definitely recommend. Ahmet was very helpful in the organisational part of the trip, figuring out itinerary and what to stock up on (Turkish wines were quite a pleasant discovery). The transfers were seamless, and once onboard the crew were amazing – as described elsewhere, the captain knew the coast well and was often able to find small seluded bays. The chef & deck hand provided amazing food & service along the way. We would be happy to book with them again.”

“Our gulet trip on Grace booked through Ahmet at Gulet Escapes turned what was shaping up to be a very uninspiring summer of travel into one of the all-time standouts. Every detail—from arriving at Bodrum airport to leaving again—was taken care of and the service was fantastic. The wonderful crew could not have gone further to see to our every need. The food provided was beyond what I could have dared hope for. The variety and flavours on offer would have been impressive coming from a restaurant kitchen, never mind a galley—truly remarkable, I cannot praise Ali the Chef enough. The thing that will make the experience
stand out above other memories of wonderful trips, is the effort the crew put into optimising every moment that we had. The best bays were selected by Ismail our Captain, the wide variety of equipment was made available at a moments notice, and drinks were provided whenever they were desired. Given the work that was undoubtedly going on behind the scenes, it is nothing short of incredible how well we were attended to. Thanks to Grace and her amazing crew 2020 won’t just be remembered for the wrong reasons, it’ll be the year I got to know the beautiful Turkish coastline in true style. Already planning our next gulet cruise!”

“We recently went on a Gulet Escapes holiday, the day after Turkey was put on the naughty list. I can highly recommend the experience and so glad that we continued with our trip even against FCO advice. We were on the smallest gulet that the company owns gulet Nikola and sailed around the Mediterranean starting and returning to Bodrum. Each day we would wake up, go for a quick swim before breakfast and then sail to the next private bay further a long the coast, followed by more swimming, lunch, sailing, swimming and dinner – you get the picture. The gulet was manned by 3 crew, the captain, the chef and the first mate. All fantastic. The captain was very knowledgeable and we felt very safe in his hands, the chef produced the most amazing breakfasts, lunches and dinners and the first mate was very attentive making sure that we were very well looked after. It was a great experience which we really cannot fault in any way. My wife and I were made to feel very special. We will definitely be booking a follow on holiday in the future. In fact it has been a bit of a game changer to the way we look at beach holidays now – no going back ;-)”

“We have just come home from a fabulous week on a gullet in Turkey; Queen Lila. Ahmet was very helpful in answering questions and making sure are needs were met before we travelled, including moving the dates due to covid. The Gullet was beautiful, the crew were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble and the Turkish coast line and weather was glorious.”

“My family had a week aboard Queen Lila during August and had an exceptional time.
The boat and crew were above expectation, we were looked after and fed royally with special mention to Hassan went out of his way to do so much for us all. The coastline we took from Bodrum to Fethiye is truly beautiful with crystal clear water and pristine cedar lined coast.
A stop off in Selimiye is a must.
When it comes to advice, handling and booking your holiday then I couldn’t encourage anyone more than to use Ahmet at Gulet Escapes.
We sailed during the peak of corona virus, changing quarantine problems, people with very specific dietary requirements – a whole host of issues. He handled everything professionally and with a delicate touch to ensure the holiday went without a hitch.

“Excellent company. Fabulous holiday in Southern Turkey. We chartered Prenses Selin from Fethiye. We had a 6 day trip around the Turquoise coast. The Skipper, Tugi was very accommodating with our requests to visit certain bays. Vulcan, our cook produced some amazing dishes. We were a group of 10 children and 7 adults. Everyone was well catered for. Even the children enjoyed the food! You do not go hungry. The staff were very attentive to our needs. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. All the cabins had aircon, that was turned off when the generators were off. Without this the rooms would have been unbearably hot. Average day temp around 34oC. We slept on deck for most of the week, as it was generally cooler. Over the course of the week we saw Turtles, took a river trip up the Dalyan river, Mudbaths, diving and paragliding, not to mention the swimming and snorkelling. Plenty of fish, but sadly, no coral. A unanimous Thumbs up from all of us. The general consensus was the best holiday ever!”

“It was touch and go whether we would take the plunge and go on our long awaited gulet trip during the Pandemic and I’m delighted to say that it was a great decision and it turned out to be one of the best ‘girls’ weeks ever.
The crew were amazing in every way, the food superb and the Turkish coast breathtaking!
Ahmet was calm and reassuring through the whole build up and even managed to recommend very drinkable wines from the large list he sent through! He made everything seem so easy and for us it was.
We had a wonderful holiday and all of us can’t wait to return and would always use Gulet Escapes.”

“We have just returned from a week on the beautiful gulet FlasV11 and it totally exceeded our expectations. We felt very safe the whole time – the gulet was spotlessly clean and the crew were regularly cleaning all areas thoroughly. We spent the week cruising the Agean; swimming in the crystal clear sea, kayaking and enjoying the excellent food, drink and hospitality of our friendly and helpful crew who all went out of their way to make sure we had everything we wanted. With all meals, snacks and local beer and wine included, we found this was really good value for money. I would highly recommend Gulet Escapes for their choice of gulets and locations and also expert knowledge and advice.”

“I have been working with a reliable company that has great reviews –unfortunately we had to cancel our trip in May 2020, but will (hopefully) go in May 2021, as those are our plans. The company is SCIC Sailing. They own several gullets of various sizes and the woman who runs it is in Denmark. I would consider it mid-luxury. They were delightful to work with, and have honored our deposit from 2020 for 2021.”

“We have recently returned from a weeks holiday on the ‘Love Boat’ booked through Gulet Escapes. Ahmet was extremely helpful throughout the booking process, answering our many questions. We were met on the boat by his sister Aysu, so this is a family affair! We had a fantastic week with Leo and his crew. We opted for the slightly more expensive food package – the food was delicious and we thought very good value. The boat was perfect for our group of 18 as there is so much space. The rooms were larger than we expected with plenty of storage, although the ones downstairs were very noisy from the engine when you are on the move, and quite dark and dim, but it is a boat! There was a bar area perfect for a party, as long as Leo was warned and could move the boat somewhere where we wouldn’t disturb others. The Turkish coast line is beautiful with stunning bays and crystal clear water. We did hire 3 more paddle boards, as we felt one wasn’t enough for the group, and were very glad we did. We all enjoyed the paddle boarking, kayaking, water skiing and monoskiing. Thank you Ahmet for arranging a brilliant holiday and for Leo and crew for looking after us!”

“Zoe and I have been cruising the Turkish Coast from Antalya to the Black Sea and the Greek Islands for over 30 years. This year’s trip on Seyhan Hanna (our tenth) was the best ever.
The pre trip administration was faultless and the help was brilliant.
The captain and crew could not have been more helpful. The accommodation, food and service were excellent.
Some of us were also walking the Carian Way using Seyhan Hanna as a floating base with hot showers and cold beer. Ecstasy!
Will be back next year.”

“We are just back from our trip to Turkey on the gulet Optimist. I would like to say a big thank you to you and the local team for a fantastic holiday. The organisation was superb in every respect, the gulet comfortable and a super friendly and obliging crew.
We stayed at the El Vino hotel in Bodrum both before and after the boat trip. Again this worked well and I would not hesitate to recommend it.
This is no doubt a holiday to be repeated some time and we will definitely re-book through yourselves and recommend the whole experience to anyone who asks.
Best wishes

“We have just returned from a two week holiday with Gulet Escapes. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
I arranged the holiday for a party of four adults and delt mainly with Malissa, she was fantastic, we had many small queries and she replied to all my emails very promptly.
We had never had a Gulet holiday before it was fantastic.
The boat was joined in Bodrum and called Flas VII captained by Captain Levantine, we had 10 other passengers who were all like minded.
The crew were marvellous, the ship was fantastic, all dark natural wood and fab facilities.
I cannot get over the food, all freshly cooked and better than a lot of quality hotels. How Saliem produced that quality I will never know.
The drinks also flowed especially at meals, very generous and appreciated.
The surroundings in the Gulf of Gokova were spectacular and water sports facilities great.
My days consisted of getting out of bed into swimming gear and jumping into the sea, very special.
We left our new found friends and went to the Hotel Four Reasons for a week.
Again all transfers were seamless and the hotel very special, very quiet and relaxed.
Thank you so much Melissa and Gulet Escapes for a fantastic holiday.”

The whole trip ran perfectly and all of our requests had been sent through to the crew including a birthday cake for a surprise for one of our group .

“We’ve just returned from a fantastic week on a gulet organised by Gulet Escapes. It was just perfect! Usually there are small things in a holiday that you might wish were slightly different or could be improved; but there was absolutely nothing that we would have changed. Gulet Escapes are a highly professional outfit, their care and attention to detail was outstanding. We knew exactly what to expect and we’re thoroughly satisfied.

“Hi Ahmet,
It was great!! We had a fantastic time. The crew on Gora was friendly and the chef was excellent. We would definitely do it again. The only thing I would do differently is visit more areas where we could get off the boat and walk more for some exercise. What a great boat/crew. It was wonderful!!! Thank you for organising everything. Our private jet to Mykonos was very smooth as well so thanks for organising that too.”

“It’s been a while since our holiday and we were keen to offer some feedback on what was a truly excellent holiday and booking experience.
Your advice prior to the holiday, the suggestions and guidance that resulted in the perfect mix of itinerary, cost and Gulet, Cedya 2.
The boat was excellent value for money, we identified the cost of charter is related to the facilities and age of the boat. But as boats have limited space, even on the most expensive luxury boats we saw people choose to sleep on deck. So your cabin is just a changing room.
The crew were just fantastic. The experienced captain Hussain, adjusted the itinerary to always find the less crowded places and we often found ourselves alone in our own bay. He was full of suggestions on what to do and where to visit. Girjan the deck hand was an attentive host, waiting on us, whilst managing working the boat. One of the highlights was the quality of food cooked by John the chef. Every meal was excellent, fantastic fresh Mediterranean food cooked from scratch.
Whilst this boat is at the budget end of spectrum, the combination of the crew, the itinerary and your organisation of the trip resulted in one of the most magical holidays my family have enjoyed. Thank you.”

“Just finished a week’s cruise on Flas VII
Absolutely stunning from start to finish
Beautiful boat, so comfortable and pristine. Hot showers, proper toilets. Lots of space on the deck, different areas to sit and lounge. Lots of shade.
Kayaks, paddle boards, water-skiing and donut pulling, snorkels and masks, noodles – all available for us to use.
Delicious food, decent wine and beer
The captain and crew worked tirelessly and nothing was too much trouble
The icing on the cake were the 12 other guests who were delightful. Such a fun and sociable group
Lots of laughter and frolics.
A real holiday to remember!
We will be back!

So many queries yet Ahmet was always prompt in responding with a wealth of information and recommendations. MASKE what a stunning Gulet with a fantastic crew led by Captain Marco. The crew did everything and more to welcome our group of 10 and ensure we were as comfortable as possible. The Chef was an absolute asset to the crew and catered for all dietary needs, nothing was a problem and the food was excellent. Captain Marco and crew did a wonderful job looking after us so much so we have booked to go again in 2019. We cannot wait to see MASKE and all the crew again.

The food was absolutely superb and the chef must be commended for the standard of meals he was able to prepare for 20 people on board in such a small kitchen.I was most impressed.”

Food was great, we were the only english couple with Spanish couple, three Italian singles and a Italian family with two young children. Although the conversation for us was limited we all got on great. We did the Golek cruise, but found it to be quieter than we would have liked in the evenings as many night moorings were remote and not heavily populated. But this is not a compliant as we had a great time and WILL be doing it again, but with a more busier ports of call.”

“Hi Ahmet,
As regards you organising our Gulet Holiday I must say that in the beginning of organising this trip I was  more than a little nervous. However your helpful comments and suggestion  and organisation along the way were gratefully received and made the holiday that much more enjoyable and everything went like clockwork from start to finish.

As you know we flew to Bodrum airport and was met on time by your organised driver, and with not problems took us straight the  Gulet.

I must say from here on we were all totally struck by the friendliness of the crew and  your sister made us most welcome which put us all at ease straight away.We were a little unsure what to expect about the food but what a revelation,
having sampled our first meal we all agreed that the food was excellent well presented with a friendly atmosphere and this continued throughout the Holiday the crew also made it most enjoyable and happy occasion and could not have been more kind or helpful which I think is a credit to you, the crew, and the whole organisation.

It was a fantastic holiday with good  crew, good weather , good food, good company fantastic experience and will not hesitate to recommend you and you crew to everyone we know and hopefully look forward to using you again

It was in all a very memorable experience on the Gulet Elara on the 9th June 2018.”

“We booked a week on the Derya Deniz and had an absolutely wonderful holiday. This was our second gulet holiday booked through Gulet Escapes and didn’t regret it, in fact it was even better than our first in 2016.
The initial booking process worked perfectly and Ahmet was fantastically responsive to every question we had. All of the local transfer arrangements worked like clockwork and the boat and crew were ready when we arrived.
The Derya Deniz is a beautiful boat and we felt really spoilt to think it was ours for the week. The food was excellent and route to Fethiye and back was very pretty. The crew (Morem, Cezar and Urzal) worked tirelessly and couldn’t be faulted.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Gulet Escapes as a company and we will certainly be booking with them again.”

As ever – totally relaxing, brilliant scenery, clear waters, sunshine and fabulous food and wines. The service was as usual exemplary, from the Agent (Ahmaet) local rep Berren and all the crew. We have alredy requested to book again in September and highly recommend this very personal service and happy boat!”

“We have just returned from a fantastic trip on Maske 2 arranged through Gulet Escapes. Ahmet in London and Aysu in Turkey were very patient with all of our enquiries in arranging this trip of a lifetime and catered for our every need. They arranged everything for us, including a few days exploring the ancient ruins in Turkey, and staying in small typically Turkish villages before we embarked on an amazing 7 days cruising around the Turkish and the Greek Islands.

We would love to thank all the crew on board, Mehmet the Captain, Ali can the Chef, and the two crew Ozayo and Umut who made the trip so memorable, the food was delicious and never ending, including my surprise birthday banquet which was aptly pirate themed. We even enjoyed cocktails in the sea at one of the beautiful coves where we stopped for one of our many snorkelling adventures.

I would thoroughly recommend Gulet Escapes, their attention to detail was exemplary, and they really wanted us to have an unforgettable experience. It was truly a fantastic holiday that we will all remember forever.”

Ahmet (our representative from Gulet Escapes) was always available to provide his input and expertise to our trip including setting up all out taxi requirements from the airport to Marmaris and return.

“We have just returned from a weeks holiday along the Turquoise coast in Turkey aboard the Gulet Maske. It was a totally outstanding experience!

Let me start with Ahmet, from the London based company Gulet Escapes, who we booked the holiday with. His attention to detail and organisational skills are second to none. He never missed a beat, from sourcing a special birthday cake to arranging transfers and ensuring we had a great itinerary, Ahmet did it all. Many thanks.

Then there was the boat, a gorgeous sleek white Gulet, just a few years old, that had the most superb accommodation. Well appointed cabins with air conditioning and lovely en-suites made even more special with lots of storage and great lighting. On deck were sun mattresses and comfortable seating. Murat, the chef served up delicious meals every day, breakfast lunch and dinner. The crew, Aki and Ali attended our every need and nothing was too much trouble. Finally Captain Emre, someone who really knows his stuff and especially how to run a boat for the benefit of his clients. His advice, help and assistance made the week. Many thanks to you all.

Have I any complaints, yes I have! It was all over far too quickly so to resolve the problem we are going to go back to Gulet Escapes next year and do it all again. Get the mint ready for the Gin fellas and find us another great cove or two to enjoy the sunset. A really big thank you from the Whoop-whoop crew!”

Dear Ahmet,
We’ve been intending to write to you, but believe it or not, we’ve had quite a busy schedule at home since we returned. We also wanted to take the time to write something meaningful since that is what our experience deserves.

The Alba itself met and even exceeded our expectations. It is spotless and beautifully maintained and outfitted with every convenience and comfort. We found shade when we wanted shade, we had sun when we wanted sun, and in every instance we settled into a perfect environment. The scenery was spectacular, the weather was perfect, and it was impossible to have scripted a more memorable vacation.

The Alba crew could not have been more extending and hospitable in the service they provided us. Each morning Captain Mirko shared the area map and reviewed the details of the upcoming day’s journey and offered us numerous choices as to what we might want to do. It made us feel that we had significant input in the outcome of each day. Each morning Samir, the chef, asked me what sort of food we wanted and allowed me to help plan the menu. He and Captain Mirko then went out and shopped for freshly caught fish and produce to present us with abundant and delectable meals. Katarina and Vinco were warm hosts who maintained our cabins, supervised the water activities, took us on tours of the islands, and made us feel very comfortable. Their camaraderie among themselves and friendliness towards us completed our wonderful experience on the Alba.

Ahmet:

My wife and I fully agree with and endorse the message from the Dannenbergs. One of our most pleasurable times was when Captain Mirko concluded that there was enough wind to actually set the sails, turn off the engine and sail for awhile. It was an extra added attraction which made the selection of the Alba all the more meaningful.

Everyone who has heard of our week aboard the Alba has commented on how unique an experience we enjoyed. Our words can only convey an overview of the many aspects of the boat, the crew, the sights, the ports and the restaurants carefully chosen by the Captain.

From the contractual standpoint, in dealing with you as the agent for and on behalf of the owner, all the terms and conditions of the arrangement were met. In this world, that is often not the norm and when it is, the result is all the more pleasant.

These customers are certainly satisfied.

Cordially,
-Milo and Isabel Mandel (Email feedback)

“We have just returned from a one week charter aboard Seyhan Hanna sailing out of Fethyie, the whole experience was faultless, the Gulet is luxurious, the crew were superb as was the food.

Our thanks to Ahmet back in the UK for making all the arrangements and we can’t wait to go back again at the end of the summer.”

“Have just come back and absolutely loved it. Gulet Escapes took care of everything, flights, transfers and it all ran extremely smoothly.We stayed on board Gulet Alba in Croatia. The crew and Captain are fantastic and Alba is stunning. The Captain helped us choose our route and took us to some stunning bays, tranquil coves and picturesque villages.

Would highly recommend the whole experience.”

“Just to say once again that we had a wonderful time on Diva Deniz Gulet last week. We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise around Montenegro, and all of the associated experiences. We were very well looked after.

Also, your arrangements re the transfers and border crossings (apart from what you could not foresee in terms of border control silliness) were all excellent!

Thank you very much again, we will recommend you to our friends, and will certainly use you again if we come back to the Eastern Mediterranean”

“Not long back from a 2-week holiday in Turkey with one week on the Gulet Seyhan Hanna and one week in a hotel, all organised very efficiently by Gulet Escapes. The boat is very comfortable, the food was great, all-in a very enjoyable trip. Would not hesitate to use Gulet Escapes again.”

“Went on a Gulet Escapes week trip through the northern Greek Islands. The whole experience was fantastic from booking with Ahmet through to the extremely friendly and accomodating captain & crew. Nothing was too difficult, with any drinks made when requested, dropping off to shore & pick up at any time, even did some skiing behind the dingy! The boat was spotless and the food plentifull & magnificant. This was our second Gulet trip, but the first through Gulet Escapes with this one being the better boat and experience of the two.”

“We have just got back from an absolutely incredible week cruising in the Dodecanese aboard a fabulous gulet, the Dolce Mare. Everything from the food to the captain and crew were amazing. Ahmet from Gulet Escapes did a simply great job organising the whole thing from start to finish. He was happy to meet up in London and explain about the various gulets and go through all the options. Once the booking was made, he was so professional from the paperwork, to making all the arrangements including organising a birthday cake, sorting out all our wine and drinks orders and generally assisting every step of the way to ensure it all went smoothly which it did without fault. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ahmet or his company, and would definitely use them again.”

“We had a fantastic holiday with Gulet Escapes. Everything was organised perfectly and it was such a wonderufl holiday! We’ll definitely be using them again next year. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

As for the holiday itself, we sailed from Fethiye to Kalkan on Seyhan Hanna. We had such a lovely time.The crew and the food was amazing as ever. We had a few days in a hotel in Kalkan afterwards again organised by Gulet Escapes. And they even managd to get an upgrade on our hotel room. All round it was a fantastic trip.

Already thinking about next years holiday :)”

“we’ve just returned from another brilliant Gulet holiday with Gulet Escapes in Turkey. Ahmet was most helpful in making the arrangements. The crew were great, food excellent, facilities good & the weather ideal. The boat had good facilities with plenty of room & the Captain found many ideal secluded bays to moor in peace & quiet.”

Highly recommend using Ahmet with Gulet Escapes to book your gulet charter. Ahmet helped us book our 2 week gulet charter in Turkey this past summer. Ahmet was knowledgeable, attentive, and professional throughout the whole process. We had such a wonderful vacation, visited beautiful locations, and ate delicious meals prepared by the chef. From beginning to end the captain and crew were fabulous–we’re already talking about booking our trip for next summer!”

“Had a fanatastic cruise organised with Gulet Escapes at the end of July, chartering cabins on the Bodrum-Gokova cruise. The captain and crew where brilliant and the food amazing. The chef even made a cake for our son’s 18th birthday! Having found Gulet Escapes through an Internet search, we were very pleased with the efficiency of their service, Ahmet’s email responses being timely and helpful and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to book independently from a package holiday. Just a note, take your passport on board (as it was needed by the captain); we’d left ours at our Turkey home!”

“We had probably the best Gulet holiday in 20 years, in September, with Gulet Escapes.

Great service from their UK and Turkisg offices. Great gulets and lovely food.
The captain & crew of The Nikola were the best we have ever experienced.
You will not be dissappointed!”

“Hello, Just had a fantastic Gulet Escapes Turkish gulet holiday with all the family. It all went really smoothly and the captain and crew were friendly and efficient. Ahmet in the London office also was very helpful and prompt with any questions. Well done Gulet Escapes!”

“A fantastic experience from beginning to end. Ahmet from Gulet Escapes really went the extra mile to ensure we had an excellent trip. He even rang the hotel where we were staying at the end of our cruise to secure a room upgrade. The Diva Deniz was superb and I would happily recommend it to anyone. The crew were extremely helpful and courteous. The accommodation and the food were both excellent. Altogether an very memorable holiday thanks to Gulet Escapes.”

“Another excellent holiday organised by Gulet Escapes. Following a fab holiday in Turkey last year we came back again to Ahmet who found us the perfect gulet in Croatia. A wonderful time was had by all 13 of us celebrating my mother’s 80th birthday. Highly recommend!”

“Gulet Escapes booked our 10 day holiday in Croatia in September this year. Ahmet was patient and thorough – extremely helpful with all my enquiries and in customising our trip as we so wished. We spent one week on a Croatian cruise on the Fantazija, followed by a 4 night stay in a local hotel. The boat was clean and comfortable and the staff helpful and friendly. All the transfers between resorts were organised by Ahmet from London and went without a hitch. I will certainly use them again and thoroughly recommend them to others.”

“Just returned from 2 weeks holiday organised by Ahmet at Gulet Escapes.

Flight/car hire/hotel/gulet/hotel/transfer to airport/flight.

Everingham went perfectly and Ahmet recommendations were excellent.

It easy to worry about little things such as the car hire guy or the location of the gulet … no need because the car hire guy was waiting for us with our name on his board and from there on on each company carfully passed us on the next. Luggage was carried for us and special requests catered for. With six different companies involved in providing our holiday this was probably the best organised holiday we have ever had.

I have no hesitation in recommending Ahmet and Gulet Escapes since this guy really knows the right organisations to work with and pulls them all together to make an excellent and worry free package.”

“Gulet Escapes arranged our charter of the beautiful gulet Euphoria this July/August 2016. I am pleased to recommend both Gulet Escapes and Euphoriia. Ahmet of Gulet escapes has excellent knowledge of the boat, crew and cruising suggestions both near Kas, and in the Dodecanese. The trip was beautifully arranged down to the last detail dovetailing in with flights and at a better rate than we thought we would get. First class service.

Euphoria is a beautifully appointed gulet with an excellent crew who could not have done more to make our trip memorable and enjoyable. Captain Hasan an excellent safe sailor with good knowledge of anchorages and the ports with first class seamanship. Orhan the steward a great arranger and extremely hard worker. Kenyan the chef prepared truly excellent meals the whole trip. Ali the last crew member incredivbly kind and thoughtful. An excellent trip”

Hi – just back from a week in Croatia on the gulet Croatia, booked through Gulet escapes.

The week was fantastic ! We were an extended family of 9 all had a brilliant time and loved every minute. The gulet exceeded our expectations and we loved the spaciousness and numerous seating areas, as well as the very comfortable cabins. We really appreciated all the attention to detail from the crew – the gulet was kept immaculate at all times and the crew all clearly have great pride in it. A huge thank you has to go to Sinisa – the food was amazing and he did a wonderful job in creating so many amazing dishes in what was I’m sure a pretty confined space. Josef also did a fantastic job looking after us and we loved the way he anticipated what drinks we would like without even having to ask ! And Luka was brilliant too – always cheerful and smiling, especially when he was driving the speedboat when we were on the ringo ! Finally, we really appreciated Vladimir’s (our captain) relaxed, friendly and flexible approach – he certainly let us do what we wanted and when, and it made it a very special holiday for us all, in particular for my father who was celebrating a special birthday, who I know had the best time possible. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gulet Escapes and the entire crew on ‘Croatia’.”

“We have just returned from a fantastic two weeks in Turkey, organised by Gulet Escapes. We broke two weeks at The Four Reasons in Yalikavak by having 3 nights away from the hotel on board Flach7 sailing east from Bodrum and visitng Sedir island and English Harbour.
It was the best holiday we have ever had in the Mediterranean! The hotel was excellent with super staff and the gulet was very comfortable. Highly recommended!!!!”
