What to consider before chartering your gulet:

Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.
-Warren Buffet

• Are you chartering a private gulet by name, as opposed to a category or reference number

• Will the gulet sail? How often? What is the rigging? 

• Is the layout of the gulet up-to-date?

• If air conditioining is provided, how many hours a day will it be running?

• Is full board included in the charter rate, and if not, what does it cost?

• Does the full board include alcohol and soft drinks?

• May you bring your own duty free alcoholic beverages on board? 

• Are you able to arrange for full board without alcoholic beverages if preferred? 

• Are airport transfers included in the charter price, and if not, what do they cost?

• Will your booking agent provide a crew profile with names, experience and languages spoken?

• What is the cancellation policy?

• Will your booking agent provide you with a sample contract for review?

• Will your booking agent provide sample itineraries for your review?
  

• Do the charter terms include of yacht toys? If so, do they include petrol?

Once you have taken all of these points into consideration, please read on.

The Gulet Charter Booking Procedure

Once you have decided on which gulet to charter and received a confirmation of availability, the next step is to review the Gulet Charter Agreement to ensure that all of the terms and conditions are understood. Upon the signing of the agreement, 50% of the total charter fee is due by wire bank transfer within 7 days.

The balance of the charter is due prior to or on the first day of your charter either through bank transfer, or cash upon arrival. Extras (if applicable) such as full board, drinks and airport transfers can be paid in cash or included in the advance wire transfer.

We are not able to accept credit cards for payment.

Prior to your charter, you'll receive suggestions on what to bring (and not bring!) as well as a thorough food and beverage preference sheet. We'll enquire as to any birthday or anniversary celebrations you may have, and plan with you accordingly on how you wish to celebrate.

Upon your arrival, you will be greeted by ourselves who will oversee your embarkation, introduce you to your captain and crew, and go over any further itinerary details and last minute shopping needs with you.

Time to open the bubbly and wave you off onto your Blue Cruise!
