Isla 40 Maestro

What our clients say!

Dear Necmi,

What a great vacation we had! Our sailing journey along the turquoise coast was magnificent. From the very beginning when our flights were delayed and then changed, we were supported by Boating Turkey to ensure our safe and timely arrival to Bodrum for our sailing adventure. Our yacht was waiting for us in pristine condition and met all our expectations and more (air conditioning). While sailing, we were provided with text messages if there were to be any sailing conditions that we should be aware of. We felt informed and confident so that we could enjoy our sailing and touring. We appreciated the initial charting discussions which gave us insight into harbors and islands that we might otherwise have missed, and these often became our favorite sailing destinations. We realize that we saw a very little of the Turkish coast and we look forward to the day when we can sail again with Boating Turkey. Keep up the good work and we look forward to sailing with you again.

Dear Necmi,

We had a wonderful vacation. The boat was very nice and clean when we arrived. We had a defect of one of the engines, but that was correctly taken care off. Also the inspection of the boat in the beginning and at the end went very efficient and kind. We would certainly recommend your services to other people. We are even thinking of coming back next year, but then starting in Fethiye.

I have set my husband in cc, maybe he can still add some comment.

Dear Rusen,

Thank you for your help in putting together the best vacation ever.

I would recommend Boating Turkey to anyone planning to charter a gulet in Turkey, and you definitely should. A friend had referred me to Boating Turkey, after he had fantastic experience, and I was not disappointed. Rusen gave us great options and informed us that since we booked the whole boat, we had flexibility in what we wanted to do. He recommended itineraries, based on our needs, as well as ensuring the requested equipment was on board. Rusen also arranged for us to tour the ancient city of Knidos with a guide. Our guide, Hamdi, was amazing - informative and entertaining, also recommended!

We were a group of 10 traveling as part of a 25th wedding anniversary celebration. The boat - the Grande Mare - and her crew fit our needs perfectly. The boat was spacious, comfortable and well equipped with extras as requested.

The crew was amazing! Memmet, the captain ensured we had secure, secluded inlets and met our request for good trails for hiking. Abdoulla our chef served us spectacular food with a great flare for presentation, he loved his work and took pride in every dish. The variety at every meal was amazing, with so many dishes to choose from. Kerem, our steward took great care of our every request with a great sense of humor. John and Ozzie, the deck hands and dingy drivers were engaging and friendly and very accommodating. While only Kerem was fluent in English (all had some English), they all made us feel welcome and ensured we were safe and had everything we needed. The crew made the trip even more memorable than the scenery and surroundings.

Thanks again to Rusen and the Boating Turkey team. It was the trip of a lifetime, and we will use them again!

Mavi yolculuðumuzdan çok memnun kaldýk. Yemeklerden lezzetli ve çeþitliydi. Tekne çok güzel ve temizdi. Gezdiðimiz koylar temiz, sakin ve bize ait gibiydi. Kaptanýn her yeri karýþ karýþ biliyor olmasý gideceðimiz koylarda hayal kýrýklýðýna uðramayacaðýmýzýn garantisiydi. Uyumlu ve güleryüzlü ekipten yolculuk boyunca memnunduk ve sorun yaþamadýk. Popüler mavi tur rotalarý haricinde berrak denizde yüzmek ve sakin koylarda geceleyip sessizliði dinleyerek yýldýzlarý izlemek isteyenler Bozburun rotasýný tercih etmeliler. Dimitri, Hurmalý, Serçe, Bozukkale ve Kadýrga koylarý harikaydý. Sýð limanda denize girmeyi unutmayýn.
Teþekkürler Boating Turkey
