The safety of our guests is our top priority. So what are the benefits of a Private Gulet Charter with Zephyria Yachting?
- Private Gulet Charters offer a unique experience. Due to the space available on our gulets, you can practice safe social distancing with ease, added to that you are well away from any crowds. A gulet is like a private floating hotel, where you have the flexibility to explore the beautiful coast of Turkey without having to be with anyone apart from your own traveling party.
- There is only a limited number of crew members on our gulets. For our guests’ safety we are constantly checking and recording the temperatures of our crew.
- The crew wear masks and gloves during all customer service activities.
- In addition to our daily routine of thoroughly cleaning all the cabins, bathrooms and commonly used areas, disinfection processes are also implemented.
- Due to Turkish regulations, after every charter the whole yacht is fully disinfected and sterilized by a legal & certified health company. Chemicals used during the disinfection process are approved by the Ministry of Health and WHO Gulet Disinfection Process
- Other Covid19 safety procedures that are in force by the Ministry of Health are applied throughout each charter cruise.
