Gulet chartering introduces you to a captivating voyage where luxury meets adventure. Hailing from the exquisite coastlines of Turkey, these traditional wooden vessels offer an excellent sailing experience with ample space and comfort. With over 12,000 boats in 60 countries, viravira.co provides a diverse fleet of gulets for charter, accommodating various budgets and preferences for unforgettable sailing experiences.
The popularity of a Gulet cruise stretches across numerous countries and breathtaking routes. Turkey's eternal charm, as the homeland of these vessels, appeals to many. From the unforgettable turquoise waters of the Bodrum Peninsula to the historic ruins along the coast of Antalya, the options are abundant. Greece, with its iconic islands of Rhodes and Kos, is another idyllic destination to rent a gulet. The sailing routes of Italy, from the picturesque Amalfi Coast to the magnificent islands of Sicily, also hold their unique allure. Furthermore, the serene Dalmatian Coast and medieval towns of Croatia offer an enchanting backdrop for your Gulet vacation, especially with the option to charter a gulet weekly or even daily for concentrated exploration.
The best period for a gulet charter may vary according to your preferred destination. Coastal Turkey and Greece enjoy warm temperatures from May to October, making it an ideal time for that anticipated gulet cruise. Meanwhile, Italy and Croatia offer superb sailing conditions during July and August. However, sailing enthusiasts seeking solitude might prefer the shoulder seasons of Spring and early Autumn, where fewer crowds result in more availability for bareboat or crewed gulet rentals, not to mention more exclusive use of the marinas and anchorages.
While gulets exude a timeless beauty, their size and design necessitate a certain level of expertise to navigate. Therefore, the majority of gulet cruises come with an experienced skipper. This not only ensures your journey's safety but also lets you enjoy your sailing vacation without the stress of navigation. For those with a valid sailing license and substantial experience, some companies might provide the opportunity for a skippered gulet rental.
Embarking on a gulet charter with a full crew offers an unrivaled sailing vacation. The crew's local knowledge and professionalism can enhance your adventure, delivering top-notch service from the kitchen to deck. On crewed gulet charters, you are free to unwind, explore, and indulge in all-inclusive luxury while your crew takes care of the vessel's operations and cater to your personal preferences.
If you've been inspired to take the helm and charter a gulet bareboat, you will need to possess an appropriate sailing license. The requirements vary depending on the country, but generally, an International Certificate of Competence or a national equivalent is accepted. However, given the size and complexity of these vessels, prior sailing experience is strongly recommended. Always check with the charter company or with viravira.co's professional team regarding specific license requirements.
Packing for a gulet cruise should balance between necessary and minimalistic. Casual, comfortable attire works best on board, keeping in mind the varying temperatures at sea. Don't forget your swimwear, sunglasses, hats, and plenty of sunscreen. Although gulets generally come with safety equipment, it's always good to carry personal items like a first aid kit or a personal life jacket. Lastly, bring onboard your favourite leisure activities to enjoy during those downtime moments under the sparkling stars. Remember, many gulet rentals offer overnight accommodation options, ensuring you can pack for a comfortable stay.

We had an amazing time with Hüseyin. He was very welcoming and a perfect host, even for our customary needs. Our family of 7 people came from different parts of the world including South Africa, Saudi Arabia, United Arabic Emirates and the United Kingdom for a family holiday. The plan was a boat day out on the waters to celebrate my brother’s surprise 30th birthday. And it turned out to be so special. Hüseyin helped us to ‘sneak’ the cake onto the boat without my brother noticing, and prepared glasses for us for some bubbly. He further provided us with fresh fruit, snacks and delicious Turkish coffee. We road out to a quiet bay where we swam, played some music and surprised my brother with cake and a birthday song! The boat had lots of comfortable seating, with ample space for dancing, watching the beautiful ocean views, and taking photos. We ended our wholesome boat trip with big smiles and full hearts. I would highly recommend Hüseyin for a fantastic boat ride experience!

Absolutely perfect day! I couldn’t recommend huseyin and the day trip enough. Every year we go on a boat trip and my girlfriend is never really a fan of them. This year she said it was the best day she’s had this holiday, I’m only gutted we booked this trip at the end of our holiday as if we had done it at the start we would of definitely booked again. For anyone considering booking, definitely look no further. We took our 2 year old on the boat and was abit apprehensive on how she was going to be but huseyin made her feel at home, he was feeding the fish with her and he even got her to sleep whilst we snorkelled in the sea, honestly couldn’t fault it!

We had a really great trip on yacht. It’s not luxury in the sense of gold and shiny interiors but very cosy, personal and nice and perfect for a relaxing couple of days at sea. For our group of six it was perfect.

Çok güzel 2 gün geçirdik. Teknenin kabinleri, yataklar, tuvaletler çok temizdi. Mehmet kaptan ve Hasan her konuda çok ilgililerdi. Aracımızdan tekneye yerleşmemize, alışverişe, yeme içme, servis her konuda çok yardımcı oldular. Bize sadece tatilin tadını çıkarmak kaldı.

Ekip çok iyiydi; miçomuz, hostes, aşçımız Suzan hanım ve kaptanımız Ahmet Bey. Kaptanımız koylara çok hakim, iletişimi güçlüydü; çok güzel bir tatil yaptık sayesinde ve bunun için elinden geleni fazlasıyla yaptı sağolsun. Suzan hanımın yemekleri çok lezzetliydi gerçekten. Gulet temiz, yeni ve büyüklüğü çok yeterliydi (8 yetişkin 4 yaşında 2 çocuk ve 2 yaşında bir çocuk için). Seneye mutlaka yine tatil yapmak istiyoruz. Sadece master kabinlerde motor çalıştığında bazen bir koku oluyor ancak geçiyor hemen sonrasında; normal bir durum olabilir bilemiyorum. Klimaları biz sormadan bile kaptanımız gerektiğinde açtı sağolsun. Her yönüyle yürekten tavsiye ederiz. Her şey için teşekkürler!

We had an absolutely wonderful time on this boat trip! From start to finish, everything was smooth, well organized, and truly enjoyable. The crew was friendly, professional, and went out of their way to make sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. The boat itself was very clean, spacious, and offered plenty of room to relax and take in the views. Beautiful experience. I highly recommend this boat.
