Before you book
When do tours depart?
Bus legs leave Istanbul on Mondays and Fethiye on Saturdays; the gulet cruise starts in Fethiye on Saturdays at around 10:00. Each tour page lists the next departures.
How big is the group?
Up to 16 on the bus. The gulet carries 8–10 cabins.
Can I do only the gulet cruise, or only one bus leg?
Yes. Istanbul to Fethiye, Fethiye to Istanbul and the gulet cruise are each sold on their own, and every longer route is a combination of them.
I'm travelling solo — do I pay more?
No, if you are happy to share a twin or triple room / cabin. A private room or cabin is available for a supplement.
Are entrance fees included?
Entrance fees on the bus legs are included. On the gulet, entrance fees to islands, castles and churches are paid on board (roughly €100–240 depending on the route; the tour page shows the amount).
How do I pay?
A 50% deposit confirms your place. The remaining 50% is paid on the first day of the tour, when you meet your guide.
What is the cancellation policy?
You can cancel free of charge up to 3 weeks (21 days) before departure, and you can move your booking to another departure date free of charge up to 3 weeks before. For cancellations or date changes inside the last 3 weeks, please contact us; our terms & conditions apply.
Are departures guaranteed?
Yes. Every departure date published on the site is guaranteed to run, whatever the group size. Once your deposit is paid, your date is fixed.
