A refined version of a traditional fishing and cargo vessel used by fisherman and sponge divers to transport their catch. What all is needed for a successful "Blue Cruise"? Perfect summer weather, a comfortable and clean boat, a friendly and courteous crew, excellent food and at last a harmonious group. All this indicates that you as the customer have only little influence, except by the choice of
agency. We are fortunate that 2 years ago we found an agency where all fits perfectly. While you still indulge in the pleasures of the last meal the next equally delicious one is already prepared. All this, however - quite modern and healthy - with a wide selection of delicious vegetables and an unprecedented variety of side dishes, juicy fruit and fresh fish. As you rarely go below deck, it must be noted that the captain, with whom you just had a nice talk (he understands enough English and German) had used the time since his last tour in the morning to clean again the shiny inlaid floor as well as all the bathrooms. The only disturbing in the spacious cabin is the mess that you left yourself because you had been in a hurry to rush back on deck not to miss too much of the beautiful coastline or - even more horrible (!) - the freshly prepared afternoon pastry. So when you leave very reluctantly the bay where you just spent wonderful hours, you should already know from experience that the next one will be again the "prettiest". So passes the week with that relaxing succession of swimming, eating and a few occasional trips ashore to small enchanting villages. But nothing is more rewarding than coming back from a trip from the hot mainland when one immediatley catches the refreshing breeze as you enter the boat. It is the same feeling you had experienced when you came aboard the boat for the first after the transfer (in an air conditionned modern bus) from Dalaman airport to Marmaris. This undisputed tourist location, although in one of the most beautiful and greenest bays of the Mediterranean Sea fades miracoulosly away when you come aboard your wonderful boa which wil be home for the next seven days. It is true though that you will spend - after a quiet week along the coast - the night before the departure in Marmaris, but not without having explored the extensive Bazaar which you do not leave without one or the other souvenir. Who is now to praise for the beautiful boat, the smooth transfer and perfect food supply? Haydar Öksüz, the head of Marin Tour. thanks very much
