All details about price

Charter Prices in Low Season

In May and October, prices are low and can be negotiated, and October is maybe even the most beautiful month, with no crowds and a warm sea, good weather (not too hot), and plenty of gulets to choose from.

If you have a group of 8 – 12 people (or more) and you have at least an approximate idea of your budget range, you can get truly stunning deluxe gulets at very affordable budgets.

Renting a gulet in Middle Season

The middle season is very popular for bookings, which means the prices go up, but there is still room for negotiation and getting good deals. While in May and October it is fairly easy to get a really good deal, June and September takes more effort.

That is why it is crucial to know which operators and gulet owners are more motivated for good offers and who can provide you with better services according to your exact wishes.

How do we search for gulets according to your budget range?

A lot of people are either scared to give out the information about their budget range or they do not know what their budget is. This is a shame, as if you know your budget range, you immediately get a better negotiation point and generally you get better deals.

If you know your budget is 10,000 euros a week not including food, your inquiry will go to gulets that cost more than that. The main goal will be to get those gulets inside your budget range so you essentially get more for your budget.

What is included in charter prices?

It includes crew (captain, chef, sailor, and sometimes also the hostess), fuel for cruising and the generator for air conditioning, and usage of equipment on board.

It is calculated on 7 nights – 8-day basis.

What is not included?

Generally, it does not include food, tips, port taxes, and customs fees, or drinks, which you can buy in the supermarket and bring with you on the gulet.

Fuel for water sports is also usually extra.

What is better – Early Bookings or Last Minute?

If all you are interested in is a good discount, then last minute is probably better for you. The options are much more limited and the best gulets are usually booked early, but you will get cheaper options if you book last minute.

If you book early it means that the gulets with the best crew, services, and maintenance are still available. You will pay a bit more if you book early, however, satisfaction is usually higher with this option and you have more time to organize the best itinerary and all other details that will make your cruise perfect.

Standard Gulets

Standard gulets are older vessels where cabins are not air conditioned. At least one crew member has to speak English on these gulets. The vessels need to be cleaned and well maintained, however, you shouldn’t expect any luxury. You can get economy gulets from 350 to 700 euros per person, per week including food, depending on when you are traveling, the size of your group, and the gulet quality. Most economy gulets have either 6 or 8 cabins.

Standard 3 star gulets are the cheapest possible gulets you can get. They have air conditioning in every cabin and services which are decent and nice. These gulets will cost you 600 to 900 euros per person, per week including food. Most standard gulets have 5 to 8 cabins.
