We had a fantastic holiday on one of their Gulets with Captain Ali and his crew. The weather was excellent and it is so relaxing cruising around on a boat in beautiful surroundings. We enjoyed the swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing, plus the food was great and the wine plentiful.
Overall very happy with the holiday and will definitely do it again some time.
We are regular customers
We are regular customers, and have enjoyed marvelous gullet cruises booked and arranged through Blue Cruise. Very helpful people, and a great package, though a little pricier since the demise of Monarch Airways.
Baba Veli 9
This was our first time on a gulet, we had the most fabulous holiday on Baba Veli 9. Beautiful gulet, lots of different areas to sit and relax. Food was excellent and lots of it. Captain Ali and his crew looked after us so well, nothing was too much trouble. Highlights were stopping in beautiful unspoilt bays, seeing and swimming with turtles, watching amazing sunrise and sunsets, sleeping on deck and enjoying the stars and an odd shooting star. Having great fun with friends old and new. Downside was coming back to civilisation at the end of the week and putting on shoes again!!
Would highly recommend Blue Cruise from my first phone call to Ash, everyone we had contact with were so knowledgeable and helpful and wanted to ensure we had an amazing holiday. Thank you to all at Blue Cruise.
A splendid family holiday on Kurt K
A splendid family holiday on Kurt K. A lovely Gulet and we thoroughly enjoyed the cruise as did all ages. Very comfortable and the food was exceptional; well done Mehmet (phonetic) our very smiley and very good chef and chief anchor man. If there was one minor concern it was the Skipper Sadeh (phonetic). He did his job very adequately but hardly ever smiled, spent hours on his phone and was certainly not a very welcoming host on his lovely yacht. He always did what was asked of him but without great enthusiasm. I frequently had to ask for the AC to be switched on.
The booking arrangements and advice were all first class. The shore agent Dawn could not have been more helpful. We would thoroughly recommend Blue Cruise.

We had an amazing holiday on a blue cruise gullet in Turkey. The crew and Blue cruise rep were exceptional, nothing was too much. The gullet was fabulous with incredibly delicious food. The chef was fun and always smiling. All of the crew worked seemlessy hard to make our holiday one that we will remember always.
Big Thanks
Cruising with Captain Ali.
The best of our three cruises to date! Brilliant crew, with Captain Ali who sought out the best stops for us; food was excellent and we were well looked after by all.
Sailing Aboard Kurt K 18th - 25th June 2018
From my initial enquiry as to what Blue Cruise had to offer to the very end of our holiday my husband & I have nothing but high praise for the professionalism and courtesy we received from everyone connected to the company. They appeared to make it their aim to ensure we enjoyed our holiday and we’re pleased to say they succeeded.
We sailed on board Kurt K gulet from Marmaris to Gocek taking in various sights and having regular stops along the way. We were allotted a clean and very comfortable cabin for the week. Memet the chef needs to be highly commended for the wonderful food he created for the 15 people onboard from a seemingly small & compact galley, it was varied, fresh & delicious. The other crew members, Captain Sali, Ali & Kerem were always on hand to keep us & our fellow passengers happy & the gulet ship-shape. The transfers from & to the airport which I organised via Blue Cruise were seamless & comfortable.
We will be highly recommending Blue Cruise to our family and friends and look forward to booking another holiday for ourselves with them in the future!!
Special thanks to Ash with whom I liaised throughout the booking process.

Loved most things about this holiday:
Loved most things about this holiday:
- size of boat for the number of passengers- plenty of space to spread out
- food excellent and amazingly healthy
- crew very low key but helpful
- location was stunning
Would have benefited from few more, even brief, stops for a change of scene eg drinks before evening meal. Most of this particular trip was on the boat. Having said that if you want to chill in the heat this is a perfect trip - can’t wait to book again!
An amazing holiday, extremely well organised and perfectly delivered.
Our party of 12 had an excellent holiday, combining a 7 night stay on the amazing Lycian Queen with a 5 night stay at the very good Rixos Hotel in Gocek. The team at Blue Cruise were extremely helpful, providing advice, accommodating a number of special requests, and dealing very efficiently with the unusual complication of our scheduled airline going bust! (Monarch).
Our whole experience was first class and and I have no hesitation in recommending Blue Cruise and the Lycian Queen to others. The boat was exceptional, the crew efficient and highly attentive and the food excellent.
Excellent counldn't fault it
Excellent counldn't fault it. delightful crew, great food, very nice spacious boat. Will go again
Pure relaxation!
Our 15th gulet holiday with Blue Cruise. Wonderful itinerary, friendly and helpful crew, superb food and great fellow cabin charter passengers.
Our experience on Kurt K gullet around…Turkey
Our experience on Kurt K gullet around the peninsula of Turkey was a great experience the captain and his crew were first class and would do anything to accommodate the passengers including changing the itinerary on one occasion. The food was always presented beautifully and there was plenty to choose from so you didn’t go hungry. If you want a really chilled out and relaxing holiday then this is for you. Would definitely recommend.
Turkish Gulet cruise
An excellent experience on a beautiful traditionally built boat visiting many bays with no road access. The Captain and crew were very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We all shared a good sense of humour and therefore had a good laugh every day.
The chef was really excellent and worked very hard to produce delicious and authentic Turkish dishes for the guests.
On leaving we had to say farewell to many new friends we had made but also the crew who had become our friends and looked after us so well.
Just back from a week aboard Kurt K…
Just back from a week aboard Kurt K from Marmaris to Bodrum and back to Datca - and what a wonderful week it was. For organisation and quality it could not have been bettered. A very happy boat with an exemplary, energetic Captain and Crew (including sailing); nothing was too much trouble, and the generous meals prepared aboard were a highlight every day. Delightful, interesting, convivial fellow guests made up the complement for an outstanding holiday. A huge thank-you to everyone including all the back-room team in UK, and local rep in Turkey (Jane) for making it possible. We'll be back!
Relaxation, chill and the best
Just spent a week on Kurt K....crew were so attentive, cabin spacious considering the size of the yacht and the shower was a dream. Loved the fact we sailed so much.
The food was so healthy and plentiful ...I would highly recommend if anyone wants a week of chill and relaxation with amazing views.
Absolutely fantastic!
We have just returned from our week in paradise! We were a group of 12 family and friends (age range 22-60) aboard the outstandingly beautiful Babaveli 9. This is the 3rd Blue Cruise holiday we have had. We can not praise the Blue Cruise (London) reservation team, Babaveli 9, Jane the Blue Cruise representative in Marmaris, Captain Ali together with his fantastic crew and our trip around the beautiful, secluded bays of Turkey highly enough. Everything was of an exceptionally high standard and we all highly recommend this vacation if you want a truly memorable, relaxing, picturesque and secluded getaway. The food preparation and presentation was outstanding for every meal throughout the week. We will definitely be back! Thank you all very, very much for your consideration and professionalism. We all had such a fun time and we loved it <3
This is my second trip with Blue…
This is my second trip with Blue Cruise. Three years ago on the Babavelli 8 and last week on the Babavelli 9. The boat, the captain and his team, the food, the service were all perfect. I've just made enquiries to go back in October. The holiday is a great balance of peaceful relaxation moored in remote bays with beautiful scenery, clear water to swim in, plus the stop-offs in wonderful harbours of Fethiye, Gokec and Marmaris. I just love this holiday. Whilst the guests started off as strangers, there must be a common trait of sociable and easy-going natures, as by the end of the cruise we were all hugging each other good-bye. I'd recommend this for relaxing, being spoilt, and enjoyment of the beauty of this wonderful coastline.
Do not hesitate, but book an amazing experience!
I really recommend this company. Everything was arranged perfectly, from the first contact till the end of an amazing journey.
Great Holiday
Just returned from a weeks holiday on Baba Veli 9. Had a amazing holiday, first time on Gullet. Staff excellent, Food excellent, couldn't fault any aspect of it.
