Turkey luxury cruise on gulet

Turkey is a paradise for enlightening exploration and languid relaxation amidst breathtaking settings. Bridging two continents, the country is a fascinating cultural mosaic, rich in treasures from famed empires that have left their monumental marks spanning more than 5,000 years.

Turkey boasts innumerable top-notch attractions, and we’ve spent over two decades honing and perfecting our hand-crafted journeys to this welcoming land. The beautifully bizarre limestone karsts and cave towns of Cappadocia are a favorite (there are unique landscapes, and then there is Cappadocia!). Ruin-hopping—Aphrodisias and Ephesus, to name two of many—is at its best in Turkey. Istanbul, capital of empires, offers many astoundments: the Topkapi Palace, the Hagia Sophia, Sinan’s mosques and some other lesser-visited sites that offer a comprehensive view of this one of the greatest cities in the world (in the opinion of the writer and many others). “Istanbul is alone and tremendous,” wrote Sacheverell Sitwell, “A sensational revelation... no water city can compare to it.” We venture south to set sail on its Sapphire Seas to view some of the world’s most pristine maritime sceneries, and we do so aboard marvelous and marvelously accoutered gulets, the finest in the business. And if we do say so ourselves, throughout Turkey our guides are boon, wise and amiable companions who remind us of the old saying “To call a Turk gracious is needlessly repetitive.”
