TWO/THREE-NIGHT MINI-CRUISES

A mini-odyssey along the Lycian coast

Are you ready to experience your very own mini-odyssey along the Lycian coast? “The rhythm of the wine-dark sea, spectacular sunsets viewed over glasses of chilled wine, and endlessly changing coastline...” This is how The Times described our mini-cruise, and doing it aboard one of our boats is the perfect way to spend a few blissful nights during your holiday.

Feel free to combine it with one or two hotel stays, visits to the Greek Islands or simply on its own within your travel itinerary. Voyage Elegante offers you three incredible vessels to choose from. Perdue, La Rouge and Usturmaca.

Perdue - Luxury yacht

Minimum stay 3 nights

Our luxury boat is available for a minimum stay of three nights. Giving you 23 metres of unbridled luxury, it is not a motor yacht but yet provides a fly bridge with outdoor jacuzzi and open cinema. It is not a sail boat, but yet it sails. It is not a gulet, but yet it boasts acres of sun-bathing space with futons to lounge across at your leisure. 

Perdue has one Master Cabin and two equally spacious VIP cabins. The Master Cabin has a Jacuzzi tub, ensuite bathroom, and VIP cabins with shower units.  The toilets are standard household toilets rather than cumbersome marine pumps - and the lounge has sumptuous leather furniture.

Your crew

Looking after you is a crew of three: Captain, Chef and Deck Hand who stay in their own separate quarters. 

What’s included

You'll be treated to a hearty cooked breakfast, lunch, high tea and dinner with unlimited water and soft drinks. Enjoy 24-hour air-conditioning to keep you cool in even the most extreme conditions. 

The toys on board

During the day, there are plenty of toys to play with including a Sea bob, water skiing, knee skiing, pedalboard, fishing tackle and snorkel.

La Rouge -Deluxe yacht

Minimum stay 3 nights

A deluxe boat is available for a minimum stay of three nights. She is brand new, 16 metres long, with 24-hour air conditioning and as her name implies, stands out thanks to a bright red hull.

The Master and VIP cabins come with standard household toilets, while the twin-bedded cabin includes an electric toilet. Outside, the boat's flybridge features an impressive open-air cinema system.

Please note: The boats have sails mainly for aesthetic reasons. They may be raised for a pleasing visual effect but the motors are the prime source of power. Prevailing local conditions including the weather may force changes to be made to the itineraries for practical and safety reasons. The Captain’s word is final.
