Boat Types
Gulet or Catamaran — The Comparison
The Gulet: Traditional and Crewed
A gulet always comes with a full crew (captain, deckhands, often a cook) — no steering required, but less flexibility in route choice since the crew decides.
The Catamaran: Flexible and Modern
A catamaran can be chartered bareboat (with your own license) or with a skipper — more flexibility in route and pace, modern equipment.
Price Comparison
Gulets are generally calculated at a higher weekly rate due to the fixed crew, but offer a fully worry-free experience including meals.
Our Recommendation
For the classic, relaxed "Blue Voyage" experience: gulet. For active crews who want to decide where to go themselves: catamaran.
Frequently asked questions
Is meal service included in a gulet charter?
Usually yes — the onboard galley with cook is included in most gulet charter rates, with exact terms set by the individual contract.
