Tour programme :
| Day 1: Your captain will settle the harbour procedures while Guletbookers staff give information about the cruise programme and your gulet, after boarding in Bodrum harbor around 3.00 pm. If you arrive early, you can visit the various sites in Bodrum including in particular the Museum of Underwater Archaeology in the Castle of Saint Peter on Bodrum Harbour. Once all are aboard, you have the choice of staying in the harbour overnight or to cruise to a nearby bay for swimming, snorkelling, dinner and overnight. **(According to your request , you may also spend the overnight on a closer bay ,rather than staying on the port.) |

|
| Day 2: After breakfast cross the channel to arrive in the first Greek island of Kos around noon. Take the opportunity to see the Asclepion, Hippocrates Tree, the Castle or the Museum (all open until 14:30), before lunch on board. Take dinner aboard and stay overnight in Kos harbour. |

|
|
|
| Day 3 : Sail north for Leros Island to arrive around noon. After a lunch and swim at Xirokambos, move on to Lakki or Ayia Marina. Leros has a history reaching back to the time of Troy, while now the island has the charm of a very traditional way of life. The leisurely afternoon and evening are yours for exploring on foot. |
||
|
|
|
| Day 4: Arrival in Scala harbor of Patmos Island, a popular mooring spot at the base of the mountain crowned by the world heritage site of the 13th century monastery of St. John the Divine and other sites of pilgrimage. The island monasteries are of great importance for the Greek Orthodox Church, and Christians, and it receives thousands of pilgrims and visitors every summer. The heritage status means that the delightful villages are kept in characteristic traditional styles. The captain may decide to moor in a nearby bay for overnight. |
||
|
|
|
| Day 5 : An early morning departure after breakfast allows you to cruise to the tiny tranquil islands of Leipsi far from the crowds. There are just a few traditional villages and bays ideal for a quiet swim. |
||
|
|
|
| Day 6 : Your gulet turns southwards for the larger island of Kalymnos. Although its days of wealth as a major sponge fishing center are over, Kalymnos still proudly displays its long history in the sponge diving museum and its stately homes dating from that era, and the magnificent new museum of ancient finds. The many small bays and coves of the island are well worth dropping an anchor in. |
||
|
|
|
| Day 7 : Leaving Greek waters the gulet cruises eastwards to the Turkish waters and arrives at Turgutreis Marina at the end of Bodrum Peninsula. While the captain is filing his papers with authorities, enjoy the chance to have a quick wander in the very modern marina, or a short way along past the double-minaret mosque into the town centre full of shops and bargains. It is all quite different again. The guket then travels southwards around the tip of the Peninsula, so very close to Kos, and moors between Karaincir, the best beach of Bodrum, and Aspat peak crowned with 4th cent BC walls, and Roman baths and remains at its base. |
||
|
|
|
Day 8 : A farewell breakfast and an early move back across to Bodrum Harbour. Time to farewell your crew and gulet before disembarking before 10.00am. ***Itineraries are subject to local weather conditions and may, for the safety of the passengers and boat, be changed at short notice by the captain, whose decision in such matters is final. The passenger’s personal interests of course may be discussed and included in the itinerary if possible. |
