In this type of charters, it is rather difficult to give the names of the yachts in advance as the bookings on these cruises are open until the departure day. The yachts are allocated according to the latest booking status with the right room breakdown.

The cabin charters are operated on traditionally built wooden yachts. They are crewed motor sailors, ranging from 18 meter to 42 meter. The capacities of these yachts vary from 4 to 16 double cabins with private sanitary facilities and they are adequate to accommodate 12 to 46 persons on each cruise. They all meet standard security requirements and are equipped with navigation, sailing and cooking facilities.

Exceeded all expectations. Each day we stopped at a bay for swimming with so many highlights, but what really made the trip was the welcoming crew — making it feel as if you were sailing with family. Amazing food, lots of information along the way. I cannot recommend this tour enough!

Frequently Asked Questions

A cabin charter is a "by-the-cabin" yacht rental — you book an individual cabin rather than the whole yacht, and share the boat with a handful of other guests on a fixed weekly itinerary.
Crew service, meals as listed, fuel for daily cruising, port taxes and use of onboard equipment. See the Included/Excluded list above for full details.
Yes — cabin charters are popular with solo travellers as well as couples and small groups.
Yes, though the shared-cabin format is best suited to children old enough to enjoy a multi-day boat trip — contact us for guidance on a specific route.

Cruise FAQ

Practical questions about embarkation, cabins, food and onboard rules for this specific cruise.

Luggage & Embarking

Departures are on Saturdays (May-October), at 17:00 (arrive 30 minutes prior), from Zante (Zakynthos) main port.
The cruise ends 09:00 the following Saturday, at Zante Marina / Old Town.
If you miss the scheduled departure, you may be able to join the yacht at its next port of call by local ferry or bus where possible — please contact us as soon as you can before departure so the crew can help arrange it.
Yes, you're free to disembark early if you need to — the only requirement is that the yacht must be moored at a marina or port at the time (not at a remote anchorage), so let the crew know as early as possible.

Food & Drinks

Half Board: Buffet Breakfast and Plated Lunch daily, plus Welcome Dinner and Captain's Dinner included. Other dinners ashore at own cost.
Water is provided free with meals; extra bottled water can be bought on board.
Food and drink aren't permitted in the cabins and there's no shared fridge for personal storage, but the crew are happy to help with reasonable requests.
Yes — just let us know your dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, lactose-free etc.) in advance and the onboard chef will prepare accordingly.

Cabins

Yes — if you'd like a cabin to yourself, it's charged at the solo rate for that cabin type. If you're happy to share, we'll always try to pair solo guests of the same gender.
Let us know at the time of booking who you're travelling with and we'll do everything possible to seat your group together — this can't be guaranteed for bookings made very close to departure.

Vessel Rules

Our gulets carry real sails, but like almost all cabin-charter cruises they run mainly on engine power to keep to the weekly schedule reliably — pure wind power isn't practical for a fixed timetable.
A/C runs on generator or shore power and is generally available through the day and evening. On some nights, especially in peak summer, it may be switched off after midnight in line with local port rules — cabins also have an electric fan as backup.
European-style 220V sockets. Power isn't always available around the clock, so we recommend bringing a portable power bank for your devices.
No, but we're glad to help arrange transfers or local transport for you — just get in touch before your cruise.
We strongly recommend travel insurance for any sailing holiday, including this one.
Yes, the captain and crew are fluent in English.
