From ancient walled cities to spectacular bays, majestic pine-clad mountains to vibrant old towns, the destinations visited by our beautifully crafted traditional gulet boats are sure to enchant and inspire. What could be more relaxing than sailing along this peaceful coastline and stopping off each day at yet another fantastic destination, perhaps with a swim stop along the way thrown in for good measure?

If you are travelling as part of a large party or you simply wish to have a gulet boat to yourself (apart from the crew of course) then this can be arranged. Perhaps you want to celebrate a special occasion in a more intimate way or maybe you would like to enjoy a family reunion on-board – there are many reasons why guests choose to hire our gulets and crew for their sole use.

All of the gulets can be booked in this way. Please see the information for each boat to learn more about what is included and the itinerary followed by each gulet.

The advantage of chartering your own gulet means that there is potentially a little more fl exibility in the itinerary – it could be that you wish to stay longer at a certain destination or take a few more swim stops. Where possible, such requests will be considered by the crew.

Also, while many guests enjoy the social side of taking a gulet cruise – meeting new friends with a shared interest in the Montenegrin and Croatian coastlines – others prefer the privacy and intimacy of having the boat to themselves.

Whole gulet boat charters off er a unique and intimate sailing experience around some of the most stunning coastline you can imagine. What a wonderful way to celebrate a special birthday or anniversary!
