Know the Itinerary
It is highly recommended to make sure that the route being offered for the Kas to Fethiye gulet cruise includes the places that you really want to see and visit and also takes into factors like your onward travel. On the Kas to Fethiye gulet cruise, it is a great mix of site-seeing, adventure activities and relaxing in secluded bays.

Both of these tours take 3 days and 2 nights however the Kas to Fethiye cruise is ideal if your onward travel includes flying out of Dalaman. If however your next destination is to Antalya or departing from this tourist city, the Kas to Olympos tour is more convenient.
Be prepared for a changing departure time
On this tour, the departure time from the harbour largely depends on how busy the port is. As Kas is a very small harbour, but also extremely busy – Farout may inform you of an earlier or later departure time depending on what time our gulet can get into the harbour. Most commonly the Kas to Fethiye gulet cruise arrives into port in the morning after breakfast and stays in Kas for a couple of hours before departing for the next cabin cruise stop.
Price Matters
When booking the Kas to Fethiye gulet cruise it is best to also check the price against the 4-day cruises like Fethiye to Olympos and Olympos to Fethiye. More often than not, Farout offers large specials on the four-day cruises over the 3-day cruises. It might actually work out cheaper for you and your group to join a four day tour. However, if you are limited on time, by all means, join the Fethiye to Kas gulet cruise, it’s truly a magical experience not to be missed.
