“How much does a yacht charter in Turkey cost?” is the first question most of our guests ask – and the honest answer is that it depends on the type of yacht, its size and age, the time of year and what you add on board. Prices range from a few thousand euros for a classic gulet in the shoulder season to several hundred thousand for the largest superyachts in August. In this guide we give clear 2027 price ranges for every type of yacht in our fleet, explain what is included and what costs extra, and show sample budgets so you can plan with confidence.
All prices below are for the whole yacht, per week, including the professional crew. Because you charter the entire yacht, the cost per person becomes much more attractive when you share it with family or friends.

What Is Included – and What Is Not
The charter fee includes the yacht, crew, insurance, linen, cleaning and water toys; on gulets and most motorsailers it also includes cruising fuel. Food is usually a full-board package of around €60–€90 per person per day; drinks, marina fees outside the home port, Greek island fees, transfers and a crew gratuity of 10–15% are additional. On motor yachts and superyachts, an APA of 30–35% covers fuel, food, drinks and fees, with any balance refunded. See our inclusions guide and mega yacht cost guide.
Sample Budgets
A family of ten on a comfort gulet in June: about €30,000 charter + €5,000 food + €2,500 drinks + €3,000 tip ≈ €4,000 per person. A group of twelve on a 38-metre motor yacht in July: about €120,000 charter + €40,000 APA + €15,000 tip ≈ €14,500 per person. A couple on a classic gulet in October: from around €6,000–€8,000 for the yacht. Compare these with villas and hotels in our cost comparison.
