We had a wonderful experience on this Gulet trip with captain Ali.
We are a family of 4 with two so s aged 10.
This was my third time on a gullet in Turkey and I can fully recommend mybluecruse.
The advantages of this cruise vs others are:
1. Embraking and dis-embarking from Fethiye means your not "sailing' for long long periods of time in open sea. This allows more time for relaxing/swimming in beautiful secluded bays.
2. My Blue cruise leaves before lunchtime on the day of your departure. It means you get the afternoon swimming/relaxing into your holiday. Other companies can set off quite late in the afternoon, meaning you don't anchor up until later in the day.
3. Those that might get a bit of "cabin fever" being on a boat for long periods. Captain Ali is great taking those that want optional activities such as hikes to ruins, to see views or activities such as collecting wild sage or olives.
4. The food is amazing. Traditional turkish food, and so much of it......I think I put on a few kgs.
We loved out time on board the Sea Born Legend. Highlight of our trip around Turkey.

Great cruise if you’re looking for a relaxed and beautiful trip. Let Ali surprise you with where the boat takes you. He knows the best spots keeping in mind weather, other cruises and excellent swimming and hiking spots. Lots of equipment available on board such as supp board and snorkel gear.
Food is pure (all from local suppliers) and incredibly tasty. Fish from the grill and lots of frech veggies. My favourite.
A great trip to relax, take a dip and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I’m already looking forward to the next one!

I signed up for a 7 day cruise for june 2022. I paid a complete single supplement, was guven a 10% discount, and then refunded the cost of one day because he shortened my trip. The cabin was fine, but i have to say that ali changed the pickup date and length of cruise, apparently to accomodate picking up some other passengers and getting his crew for the next trip. So, as sweet and hardworking as ali’s 17 year old nephew ramazan was, he was not the chef we were promised. The boat was poorly supplied in terms of food and alcohol. The first night, we were yelled at for not cleaning our plates, tho ali had served us. By the fourth day, we were being served leftovers for lunch. The afternoon tea was black tea and the cheapest generic cookies you could buy. I had specified that i like eggplant, ali said it was his leasy favorite vegetable so we had it once. I asked for yogurt for breakfast, but only got it one time Out of wine by day 4, he did not take advantage of the grocery ship in the harbor., tho he charged full price for the already opened, leftover white wine in the cooler he did not charge me for the leftover red wine in the cooler. . We did not go to the blue lagoon (though he took the girl he picked up the day before there). He made excuses for not stopping at the planned places, saying the wind was too strong. In actuality, it appears he was trying to coordinate with his brother picking up his crew for the next trip. The other single, 60’s woman on the boat, he sent her to his brother’s boat for her last day. He did not ask. He just did it. She tried to make the best of it, but it really felt like he considered us older single women as pieces of baggage (except we were the paying customers). Not sure he charged the two single women that sailed w us. It looked like one girlfriend on the boat, and then we waited a day to let her off and pick up another one. He was not generous in sharing his knowledge of turkey. He never told us where we were in terms of the itinerary, ranted about ataturk, was explosive when asked about the sufis. Told me to make a hotel reservation in fethiye for the end of the trip, then came to final port at gocek. I complained that this was not the agreed in departure point he said i was the one that agreed to be let off at gocek, but then i think he realized he had told me to get a hotel in fethiye. . He did pay for my taxi ride to fethiye.
While i am not sure we went to any of the places listed on the itinerary other than cleopatra’s baths, he did take us one afternoon to see some house tombs and an ottoman era cistern. And although we were going to visit cleopatra’s bathtub, he left in the morning of the scheduled visit to meet up with his brother and puck up another nephew. Later in the afternoon, he sailed to a piint where we took a short hike to cleopatra’s bathtub. We could not snorkel on the site, because of lack of time, but at least i got to see it.

We are truly sorry hear your cruise experience didn't meat your expectations.
We had to change the cruise length due to fit new booking which was all in mutual agreement and we have charged one night less,we wish you mentioned you didn't get the %10 discount while you were on the boat.
Itinerary changes according to weather and safety reasons, we apologize you didn't get to spend as much time as calm days of the sea on certain spots.
Captain Ali is main chef of the seaborn Legend,and he likes to train his nephew as future captain and cook therefore you may have see him in kitchen and all around, he enjoy being having taking tasks.
During our cruises we make bbq eggplant when weather allows us to fire BBQ.
We serve Turkish breakfast which don't include yoğurt, but we are happy to serve on request.
Drinks, we ask our guest in advance what guest like to have it on board and we provide accordingly, and it's help yourself, honestly system.
On board, according to majority of the guest suggestions we keep some of the food to next meal which get high appreciation by our guest rather than throwing in rubbish.
We like to inform our guest about o
The country as much as we can and when only asked.
"The already opened bottle of wine", was not charged, it was free of charge.
Blue lagoon in not in our itinerary.
İt's so shame, assuming that other guests on board have not paid or girl friend, as they can be a repeating clients and they already know the crew so they have good relationship with them. We opaligies from them who have seen this assuming by the review owner.

What a great nature, sea and Turkish experience - perfect. If you want to have a completely different vacation experience - this is your place. Ali and his crew make your visit unforgettable. You feel welcome and part of the community right from the beginning. The big and beautiful boat gives you the opportunity to hang out with other travelers or get some time for yourself. You enjoy the best Turkish cuisine from morning to evening - cooked with love by the warm chef Mohammer. Captain Ali is super experienced and makes you feel safe on the sea, he knows all the best spots and has a beautiful connection and respect for nature and animals that he will share with you. Every day you have the opportunity to swim, snorkel, experience the outdoors - dive into a different world if you are coming from a big city and the everyday routine of it. I will never forget this trip and so thankful that I got the chance to be part of it for a week.

Captain Ali and his crew take you to the most beautiful spots in this beautiful region of crystal blue seas and countless unspoilt islands and bays. Plenty of opportunities to snorkel, swim or do other water sports, great Yoga lessons on board (when available) or just relax. I particularly enjoyed the various (light) hikes to stunning viewpoints, hidden archeological sites and landscapes where time seems to have stood still. The food on board was absolutely delicious and varied, prepared fresh by the friendly captain himself and his attentive crew!

This was my first time in Turkey and the Mediterranean , I am completely in awe with the landscapes, the food and diversity the turquoise coast has to offer, Ali and Seaborn Legend played a crucial role in getting this impression, the boat has a very peaceful atmosphere and always kind, respectful and likeminded people, helpful staff, and very delicious, freshly cooked food; I had a lot of fun exploring, snorkelling, swimming, hiking, kayaking and just watching the stars, it was a wonderful experience with really good value and I really recommend it to anyone who wants to discover stunning island, bays and make unforgettable memories!
Esta fue my primera experiencia en Turquía y el mar Mediterráneo, estoy fascinada con los paisajes, la comida y la diversidad que la costa turquesa tiene para ofrecer, Ali y Seaborn Legend jugaron un papel crucial en esta primera impresión, el barco tiene una atmósfera tranquila y siempre personas amables, respetuosas, con intereses similares, igualmente un staff colaborador y eficiente, la comida fresca, muy deliciosa. Me divertí mucho explorando, haciendo snorkelling, nadando, haciendo hiking y simplemente mirando las estrellas, fue una experiencia maravillosa a muy buen costo y la recomiendo a cualquiera que desee descubrir islas y costas preciosas y crear recuerdos inolvidables!

This cruise was my ninth time on the Seaborn Legend. Still and always my favorite vacation. My kids, nephews and friends share my passion for the turquoise blue waters, the beautiful bays, the nice hikes guided by our favorite captain Ali, the quiet nights under the stars - and the absolute outstanding and always freshly prepared food. Teaching and practicing yoga in these surroundings is a real pleasure and co-passengers and students are always nice and interesting people. My sincere thanks to everybody - crew, family, students and friends. We will be back in 2020!

If you wish to spend your holiday in the beauty of Turkish nature with a relaxing atmosphere, Captain's Ali Boat is the best choice. It is a combination of tasty fresh food prepared by love, turquoise waters, yoga classes, beautiful sunrises and sunsets every day, swimming every day in different bays, hiking tours, visiting locals in the villages...The real authentic holiday!

Hi-I’m traveling with my family of 6 in April. We don’t have much time so we’d like a 2 night/3 days from fetiye to demre (or olimpos). Is that an option? Is there a direct number /email. we can use to call and ask questions? We also need recommendations on transport to pamukale after the trip. Thanks!

Fethiye, Türkiye96 contributions
Hi there,
We are happy to answer your question.
Cruising from Demre to Fethiye or Fethiye to Demre in two days is not possible as the distance between the two places requires 4 days of cruising, so as an alternative we would suggest cruising the Fethiye Gocek islands for two nights / 3 days.
Here is our phone number for bookings and enquiries:
+905374213569
We recommend using Whatsapp to contact us so that we are reachable in case we are traveling outside of the country.
We will be happy to answer your further question and to assist you with your travel plans.
Thanks!
Kind regards,
