Bodrum Tour Blue Cruise

Last Updated on April 28, 2024

Bodrum Tour is a gulet charter company based in Bodrum – which is one of the leading gulet destinations in Turkey. Bodrum Tour operates under a Turkish Tourism Charter License and Tursab membership with over 32 years of yachting and charter experience combined with the knowledge of the resources of Turkey.

Company owners of this blue cruise adventure have a passion for wooden yachts, Turkish hospitality and culture, fine local cuisine, and they love to plan every detail with their guests to make sure they have the best gulet experience in Bodrum, Marmaris, Gocek, and Fethiye.

Bodrum Tour offers both Private Charters and Cabin Charters.

Private Charters

A private charter, one of the best options, is when you assemble a group of family and/or friends and charter an entire yacht for a cruise of a few days or a week.

Cabin Charter

A cabin charter is when you just rent a cabin on a Turkish gulet —much like a hotel room—rather than charter the entire gulet. It is a cheaper option for those who aren't traveling with a big group.

What Bodrum Tour Offers

With a flexible itinerary, guests can change their plans for the best vacation of their choice. For example, if guests discover an anchorage that they particularly love, they can choose to spend extra time there. At night, if you have more energy and want to do something more exciting, you might choose to go ashore and enjoy local Turkish cuisine and nightlife. The beauty of a private gulet is that you have the choice.

Bodrum Tour Yachting and Travel offers multiple options based on preference, price range, and itinerary. When choosing the gulet or yacht that best suits your party, you have the option to choose from a range of luxury gulets, deluxe gulets, and traditional models. Each gulet's prices are based on amenities, itineraries, and season (low, high, and peak). May – October low season, June - September high,  July – August peak season for gulet and yacht charter.

Bodrum Tour Yachting and Travel does an excellent job communicating with guests and helping build the perfect plan for your gulet trip based on your preferences. For example, if you prefer to spend more time sailing, they will match you with the right yacht and itinerary for the best conditions depending on the time of year.

Additionally, their gulets are accessible to those with mobility restrictions. Aside from easily accessible cabins and decks, Bodrum Tour also has an incredibly kind and helpful staff who will assist in getting on and off of the gulet and swim ladder as needed.

Bodrum Tour helps you every step of the way to provide a perfect, memorable gulet excursion.
