Turkish Gulets
A gulet is a wooden motor sailing vessel. They have been adapted to the most stringent of traveler's requirements and now offer luxury and good taste not found in any other craft of similar history and background.
Our current selection includes only those vessels that we believe best meet our demanding standards. We know how well their crews are supported and their level of respect for the ecology of the lands. We know how well the yachts are built and maintained, their safety records, how problems are handled and, a very critical point for INCA, the degree to which the owners share our vision of a great trip.
Below are examples of some of the gulets we use. The specific gulet will be selected to suit the size of the group.
