Where do gulets sail?
Mostly Turkey (Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye) and Croatia (Dubrovnik, Split). Some operators offer the Aegean (Athens area) but it's rarer.
How much do I tip the gulet crew?
10-15% of charter fee, split among the crew. The captain typically distributes.
Are gulets really 'sailing' boats?
Technically yes — they have masts and sails — but most weeks 80%+ of the cruising is under motor. The sails come up for an hour or two of show. If you want real sailing, pick a sailing cat or sailboat.
Can I have specific food requests on a gulet?
Yes — gulets have a dedicated chef. Tell us your group's preferences (kosher, vegan, allergies, kid-friendly) and the chef plans accordingly.
