So much has been said about Captain Ergun and his boat trips, that I almost feel redundant making some of these comments. However, when you experience a truly excellent vacation, it’s important to record the experience so others do not need to stress over their boat and captain decision. For people that don’t have the time to get through this whole review, I’ll post a spoiler now: Stop looking, you’ve found a winner, you won’t do better, it’s time to book with Captain Ergun! Background: I am a very seasoned traveler. A Captain for one of the highest rated airlines in the world (think Asia) and I truly enjoy the finer things. That said, I appreciate value and a budget. But, my bottom line is SERVICE. I spent an inordinate amount of time researching boat trips in Turkey. I stumbled across the idea a few years ago while touring the Turkish coast. When I saw the gullets lined up in port, it became a “bucket list” item. This holiday was designed around a multi-night boat trip through the warm and clear waters of southern Turkey. I knew I was looking for a private boat with captain and cook. What I didn’t realize was that I would stumble upon such an absolute gem. There are literally countless companies offering such trips, and each has similar itineraries and pricing. The controlling side of my brain didn’t want to leave the selection of the actual boat and crew to a large company. I wanted to know that I would spend my vacation time with someone whose priority was to make dreams come true. This is where Ergun comes in. Captain Ergun, is the driving force of change for Turkish boat trips. If you see an amenity advertised in a competitor’s listing, it’s something that Ergun dreamed up first. Ergun over-delivers to the point that it’s comical. Whether it’s to seek out the calmest water or search for an afternoon breeze, to indulge your whim for local fresh bread or a night of dancing. He seems to never run out of energy or motivation. The brilliance of Captain Ergun is that every charter he runs is individualized for his guests. He has an uncanny ability to read you, what you want, and even what you have yet to think of. I spent my four-nights on the motor sailer EVITA. She is a fully equipped boat with three cabins, all significantly larger then I had expected. The cabins all have an en suite bathroom with shower facility, air conditioning when necessary, and Wi-Fi Internet. Water skiing, tubing, stand-up paddle boarding, kayakin

It was one of our life time experience at the Captain Ergun's Gullet. Captain's wife Merve freshly prepared foods, a specially barbecue fish was very delicious. We had a lot of fun with under water go pro camera and sea scooter. Saw a lot of colourful fishes with the masks and flippers supply on the boat. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to visit Kas and make a daily or overnight boat tours. Thank you captain. See you next year Emma

It was my first experience in a boat for the whole weekend and everything was perfect. My friend told me about captain Ergun and we decided to espend the weekend and everything was perfect. The boat is clean and new, they have all equipments such as snorkling, pedal board and kayak. I was impressed about Merve's food that was absolutely perfect. Thanks again Captain Ergun and Merve for this amazing and unforgettable experience. I hope I can enjoy your boat again next year. Simone Rossi- Brazil

This July we spent 10 day in Turkey, it have been our best on boat vacation ever! We rented the boat with Capitan Ergun and his Wife Merve for one week. We were seven people: my family of four, the girlfriend of my son ( both 18) and our friend and her daughter ( 18 as well). Ergun an Merve made our vacation a kind of dream. The boat it's in pristine condition not a spot to remark, a lot of very comfy space, a lot of shadow, 4 nice cabin with nice, clean and perfectly working restroom each. A lot of gadget to play with: paddle board, underwater scooter, sea kayak, snorkelling gear in pristine condition. But it's not enough. Ergun, Merve and Ali take any effort to make you feel pampered like a royal without any affectation, discreet but always present and able to prevent your desire. Everybody work very,very hard but always smiling. Eregun take great care of security and it's always very calm. He moves the boat to three or four different wonderful spot everyday, every time securing the boat in three point. And if the water become less than pristine, even if he have finished in that moment to secure the boat, he will move to a better spot. Merve work in the kitchen since sunrise to prepare incredibly fresh and delicious meal, always different and so good you don't even think to go to restaurant, simply amazing but not only : also very healthy. Tons of fruit and veggie perfectly mastered.And when she is not cooking she can drive the boat as a captain too! We had Breakfast, lunch, several snack and dinner each day and they are able to perfectly accomplish the special dietary needs of one of our friends. Perfect timing for the swimming: every time you get on board there is something waiting for you. We had a very nice selection of Turkish wines white and red, incredibly good, carefully chosen by Ergun. The atmosphere on a boat it's paramount and the culture and gentleness of Ergun and Merve and Ali make the difference. My and my wife slept three night in the family villa of Eregun, overlooking Kas with a beautiful garden; they run the business with family members and friends and they were able to organise a perfect pick up at the airport. So, Turkey it's pristine, the people is more than friendly, the coast from Kas to Castelorizo has so many small enchanted bay full of history, ruins, tradition and culture that, added to the marvellous hospitality of Ergun, Marve and Ali, made this trip and vacation one of our happiest and most memorable...Thanks Ergun,thanks
