Private Boat Charter in Dalyan
The shared boat leaves at half past nine whether your toddler is ready or not. A private boat leaves when you do. You get the whole deck, the skipper works to your list, and you can stop for a swim in the river on the way back because somebody asked.

The day, hour by hour

Early start to have İztuzu almost to yourself, or a late start and stay out for the sunset. Both work.

Mud baths, Kaunos, Köyceğiz Lake, İztuzu Beach, the quiet channels most boats skip, a swim stop in the river — any combination.
- You choose lunch

Questions people actually ask
How many people fit?
Boats in Dalyan range from about six to about thirty passengers. Tell us the number and we match the boat — you should not pay for a thirty-seat boat to carry eight.
Is it much more expensive than the shared trip?
Per person, not always. Once a group reaches six or seven, private hire is often close to the same money and a completely different day.
Can we do a route that is not on your list?
Yes. Tell us where you want to go and we will tell you honestly whether the boat can get there and how long it takes.
Can we book at short notice?
Often yes, but in July and August private boats go days ahead. Message us with your dates and we will tell you what is genuinely free rather than taking a deposit and sorting it out later.
