We had the most incredible experience sailing in Turkey on the Fortuna with Captain, Chef, Khan, and Mehmet. From start to finish, everything was seamless thanks to Mehmet’s (far out cruises admin team) excellent communication and organisation through Famous Cruises—he made the admin side of things before, during, and after the trip effortless. On board, the service was second to none. The whole crew was friendly, professional, and flexible, making us feel completely at home. The food prepared by the chef was absolutely outstanding—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented every single day. Swimming stops were in stunning turquoise bays, and the boat itself was just perfect for relaxing. The cabins were far beyond our expectations—spacious, with comfortable beds, modern ensuites, and the luxury of air conditioning, which made for the most comfortable nights. The mix of relaxation, adventure, and five-star hospitality truly made this a once-in-a-lifetime trip. If you’re considering a sailing holiday in Turkey, look no further—Fortuna with this amazing crew is unbeatable. We can’t recommend it highly enough!

We had an excellent week on Balu Gulet with Tarik, Aydin, and Apo, with a private cruise from Fethiye to Kas and back. The food was delicious and was different every day. The boat was well equipped with sun beds under shade, sunny areas, cabins are very clean and comfortable with private bathrooms. This was an epic week!!!

We traveled 3 nights and 4 days with Legent yacht, an amazing team from Fethiye to Demre. Our captain Mustafa Bey, our assistant captain Yusuf Can bey, our chef Şahin bey gave us unforgettable pleasant moments. And Mr. Yasin, who accompanied us on the boat, accompanied us on this trip with his photos, drone shots, and fun conversation, helping us have a truly home-like vacation experience. The tastes of our chef’s dishes are still in our taste buds, it’s definitely a vacation I’ll go back to, endless thanks to all the crew and the hard work!

The sail was a trip of a lifetime, highly recommend! From the quality of the boat, the itinerary, food and all staff on board, everything was 10/10 and I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Especially with the crew, they constantly went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time ever and ensured we had everything we needed. We were even lucky enough to have Yasin, the Social Media Manager on board, who’s photos and videos were so incredibly amazing!
Hurry up and book the sail!

Could not recommend this sail enough! We had the best 3 days on the Bluefest. From the moment we stepped on board, the crew went above and beyond to make sure we were having fun, feeling safe, and completely looked after. A huge bonus was having the social media manager onboard – Yasin made sure we all went home with the most amazing photos and memories captured.
