Living the Aeolian Islands aboard a gulet cruise exploring their history, tradition and culture. Discover the charm of time visiting the places that became the theater of the actions of the greatest civilizations. Admire immense natural spectacles with a beauty that makes them unique in the world.
These are the main reasons behind which our itineraries are organized.
Aboard Kaptan Yilmaz your holiday is not only a moment of leisure, but also targeted research to enrich your spirit and satisfy your curiosity. Our cruises are really an emotional travel in which you can become protagonist choosing stop-overs and activities.

Our organized cruises last for 8 days 7 nights, boarding is expected on Saturday afternoon and landing the following Saturday.

It is a formula designed for those who want to go on a cruise without a own group. All our cabins have private bathrooms and air conditioning, ensuring maximum privacy. It is possibile to choose the type of cabin more suitable to your needs: triple, double or nuptial. Just like in cruise ship there will be common areas, and a route already agreed.
Many people who have used this formula with us have known other passengers ready to socialize and have fun, so much to meet even after the end of the cruise itself.

This formula is designed for those people who like to travel with friends or family, in this case, the ideal number of passengers to reach is 12, although the gulet can accommodate up to a maximum of 16 people plus crew. The route can be agreed freely and the crew will be on hand to satisfy your necessities. With this formula you will be “shipowner” for a week.
