If relaxing on board, swimming from your yacht whenever you like and dining on fantastic food leaves you wanting just a little more, then choose from a great selection of off-board excursions, including hiking, shopping, exploring ancient sites, and sampling some of best restaurants and tavernas in the Greek Islands and Turquoise CSoast.
Swimming and just dreamily floating around the yacht is one of the highlights of your voyage. Many guests take their first swim of the day just before breakfast. For more action there is plenty to do, including sailing, water skiing, windsurfing, snorkeling, kayaking and fishing. Parasailing, jet skiing, scuba diving, paragliding and other water sports can also be arranged. There are some great walks along the coasts; some reveal an unforgettable view, others lead you to a site of ancient ruins or to the best spot for catching the sunset. Our captains will happily head one of these moderate to strenuous hikes. Likewise, they will often lead a morning run with whoever feels like a work out.

All our yachts supply yoga mats for your personal practice and yoga instructors are available by request for a minimum of 3 days of your cruise. We also offer cooking classes on request whereby you will be joined on board for instruction by an expert chef.
Naturally, relaxation is a key part of the voyage, and we provide a library of magazines and books, as well as playing cards and a selection of board games. There is a DVD player and DVD library on board archived with film classics, children’s and foreign films. The stereo system has indoor and outdoor speakers as well as iPod connections for your own tastes. For evening entertainment or special occasions Neyzen can organize parties, folklore, belly dancers and other themed fun on board.
Shore excursions along the Aegean and Mediterranean coastlines offer fantastic opportunities to experience sites otherwise not so easily accessible. Combining Turkey’s Turquoise Coast and the nearby Greek Dodecanese Islands presents two very different cultures and offers an extensive variety of outings to easily meet individual or group interests. Both regions have lively resorts and marinas, enchanting traditional villages, authentic local cuisine, sightseeing, shopping, a buzzing nightlife, and the chance to explore ancient sites of interest. Some excursions require vehicles to venture overland, while others are walks or hikes.

Expert guides can be booked for a greater insight into a particular location. Alternatively, our captains know the regions very well and will help you explore independently. Whatever your itinerary, there are some incredible restaurants to be found in the harbors and bays en route. Don’t miss experiencing the cuisine and ambience of a few of these on the way! Of course, you may also decide just to stay aboard and relax. One of the best sides to luxury gulet yacht voyages is the freedom to do as much or as little as you like.

We had a blast exploring Turkey and Greece and have a special place in our hearts for the Turkey you showed us!"Kathy Bailey
"Excellent service in terms of local history, delightful food and attention to every need. Your professionalism, humour and attention to detail shows why you deserve the highest accolades. You have given us a lifetime memory!"Ben & Lucie
"Our first trip on the Aegean was extraordinary, thanks to you. The coastline you all showed us gave us a personal glimpse of what Homer wrote about. Thank you all for a memorable voyage."Mary Ann & Mike Weston
"Tamera - thank you for a fantastic vacation on the newly re-furbished Flas VII. The boat is truly one of a kind - the cabins (and the bathrooms) are better than a five star hotel. Your crew, captained by Levent, was attentive, professional and extremely friendly. The meals on the boat were better than any of the restaurants we have tried in Turkey. This is our third trip on your boats and we will come back again."Joe Freeburn and Carl Oster
"Hi, The gulet was excellent, completely relaxing with very congenial fellow passengers and the best food. Not sure how I maintained such a ravenous appetite while doing little more than breathing but every meal was a miracle-the more so for the size of the galley. The service was ever attentive and genuinely friendly. It was great to see the beautiful locales visited on the Nikola."Todd
"We can't stop talking about our trip of a lifetime ... in early June. The entire trip was flawless. The crew on Flas VII were unbelievably accommodating, friendly, and professional. They never stopped smiling and attended to our every need. You should be very proud of them. Thank you for arranging excellent accommodations everywhere we went in Turkey. You showcase Turkey very well. Thank you very much. P.S. The Master Suite was very special."Carol and Ken Popken
