What is a gulet boat?
A gulet is a wooden classic yacht built usually in Bodrum or Marmaris from the southwestern coast of Turkey. The average size of the gulet is 20 to 30 meters in length and feature 4 to 8 cabins. All gulet type boats come with a crew and they are used for private charter in different countries.
Gulets are available to charter in Croatia, Turkey, Greece or Italy. You can either rent a cabin or rent the whole gulet privately for yourself. Furthermore, gulets come in all shapes, sizes, and categories from standard to deluxe. Best place of each gulet boat is the deck, where you will spend most of your time. And most importantly, food on gulets is amazing, prepared fresh daily by your personal chef.
