Day 1 : Split, Omis

Location: Split, Omiš

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast

All aboard, it’s time to start your sailing adventure! Meet your tour leader and group at 1:00pm at Split harbour. We will enjoy our first lunch on board together, before we set sail in the tranquil waters of the Adriatic Sea. There are plenty of stops for swimming on the way to Omis, a small port located at the mouth of the Cetina River and surrounded by huge gorges. Historically, Omis was home to the fearful pirates whose fast boats were used to attack trade ships. In the afternoon, you can go white water rafting along the Cetina River.

Day 2 : Omis, Makarska

Location: Omiš, Makarska

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

We will start the day with a swim break at beautiful bay along the Dalmatian coast. Next stop: Makarska which is a popular resort town on the mainland that has the Biokovo mountain range as a stunning backdrop. After a brief orientation walk you have the afternoon free to lie on the beach, take part in water sports like parasailing and jet skiing, go on an optional zipline adventure or just enjoy the many cafés, bars and restaurants that line the 1.5km beach. Let’s get this party started, as tonight we will have a rave in a cave!

Day 3 : Hvar

Location: Hvar

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

As the anchor rises this morning, we wave goodbye to the shores of Makarska and are bound for Hvar. Hvar is home to spectacular beaches, pumping nightlife and draws numerous celebrities. After an orientation walk you can sample some fresh cuisine at the local restaurants and then get ready to dance the night away as we hit the local bars and clubs!

Day 4 : Korcula

Location: Korčula

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Ahoy shipmates, this morning we are sailing to Lumbarda beach to go swimming, sunbathing or join in various water-sports and activities. We will then continue to Korcula town, the birthplace of Marco Polo. Korcula is graced with indented coves, rolling hills and a walled old town that resembles a mini Dubrovnik. After an orientation walk you can wander the streets checking out the local markets, visit the house where Marco Polo lived, or grab a cocktail in a bar located at the top of the old city tower for some phenomenal views.

Day 5 : Mljet

Location: Mljet

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Time to say goodbye to Hvar and cruise down the coast to the forest-covered island of Mljet to see its stunning national park and big salt-water lakes. The salt-water lakes were formed about 10 000 years ago and were originally freshwater lakes until the Benedictine Monks dug out a channel to sea. You can still find their medieval monastery on the island of St. Mary in the middle of Veliko Jezero (Big Lake). Spend the afternoon visiting the lakes, go swimming, kayaking, or cycling around the island. Of course, no sailing trip will be complete without dressing like a pirate so tonight we will have our on-board ‘Pirate Party’ with a delicious BBQ and traditional Croatian cuisine. It’s time to shake ye booty!

Day 6 : Mljet, Dubrovnik

Location: Mljet, Dubrovnik

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Feeling a little hungover from the night before? Don’t worry nothing like relaxing in the sun or a swim in the crystal clear waters can’t fix. Later that day we head for the ‘pearl of the Adriatic’, Dubrovnik! Not just a scene location in Game of Thrones, Dubrovnik’s rich history and uninterrupted 2km walls with encircle the city make this city standout in its own right! In the evening we indulge in some fresh seafood, before seeing what the Dubrovnik nightlife has in store — party in a 13th Century fortress anyone?



Day 7 : Dubrovnik City Tour

Location: Dubrovnik

Accommodation: Traditional Motor Sailing Boat

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Another day in paradise! Discover Dubrovnik’s main attractions with your tour leader and local guide.

Pure bliss!

My travel talk experience was great and memorable

24-Feb-2021

My travel talk experience was awesome and fantastic. Me and my husband was on their Morocco and Turkey tours in 2019, they operated their tours in a culturally fun manner and the tour guides were very nice and very approachable. It exceeded our expection, we love to come back with them in our future travel. Thank you travel talk you made our 2019 as one of our memorable year!

The Best of Turkey by...

10-Sep-2024

The Best of Turkey by Land was fantastic! If it’s a “tour” of Turkey you’re seeking, this one is the pick of them all. We travelled to the most spectacular locations, and experienced breathtaking moments and views, in every stop! Our tour guide Mustafa was very knowledgeable and talked us through the history of the land. He was friendly and very patient, considering the hours he puts into his tours. Mus was able to swap the days activities for some days to ensure we were given the best opportunity for photo’s and leas tourists in other locations. Our bus drivers did an amazing job getting us to all locations safely! Thank you Ahmet & Ali, you are superstars… Highlights for us were Gallipoli, Ephesus, Pamukkale, Fethyie and hot air ballooning in Cappadocia. The group consisted of all ages, which worked out to be a good mix. The weather varied between 25 - 36 degrees throughout the trip, so be sure to pack the sunscreen and portable fan. Hotels varied, each one having it’s own idiosyncrasies, but overall very good. Some of the days were extremely long but we got through them.. I’d recommend this tour to anyone that wants a taste of the beautiful land that Turkey is ☺️

First time doing a tour...

28-Jul-2024

First time doing a tour overseas, wow what an amazing experience. Smaller tour group which was awesome, great hotel choices, professional transportation services and saw the best of Turkey in 12 days. Our tour guide Aykut's hospitality was second to none, he went above and beyond for every member of the group. His knowledge of his country's history and culture was outstanding and explained in a memorable way for a lasting memory. Aykut's has extensive experience as a tour guide and it shows in every way, many special tips from living/growing up in Turkey. Aykut's planning meant everything ran smoothly making our only job to turn up with your belongings and enjoy your experience. Thank you again Aykut for going the extra mile, making sure places had gluten free options for me and for all the funny jokes ☺️

We had an amazing time on our 12 day tour of Turkey! Our guide Yild was attentive, always was there to help us make the most of our trip and great fun! Would definitely recommend this tour to others!!

Such an UNREAL EXPERIENCE! I...

13-Aug-2024

Such an UNREAL EXPERIENCE! I cannot recommend the best of Turkey by Gulet for 12 day tour enough. On this tour we were able to see all parts of turkey from the coast line to the major cities and immerse ourselves in the culture and history! Mustafa is the best tour guide who priorities experiences, learning and safety of all tour participants (he also doubles as a comedian so ensures many laughs are had). From sailing on the Mediterranean Sea, experiencing the best food and culture in Istanbul, to paragliding over Pamukkale springs, and finally ticking off the bucket list moment of hot air ballooning over Cappadocia, this has been a trip not to forget. I cannot recommend this tour enough and would encourage anyone going to turkey to book this trip with Travel Talk!

I did the travel talk...

26-Aug-2024

I did the travel talk turkey tour with mus. He's an awesome guide full of local knowledge. There had been wild fires at Gallipoli so rearranged our itinerary to allow us a chance to visit which we did! I spent 3 days on the gulet and was a great way to relax. Would highly recommend the tour as a way to visit turkey and would do it again.

Just finished the 10 day...

30-Apr-2024

Just finished the 10 day ANZAC tour in Türkiye. Wow what an experience! The tour although busy was jam packed with amazing experiences made all the more richer by our highly knowledgable and very funny guide Aykut. The bus was full of 44 Aussies and Kiwis which would've been no easy feat to control. Aykut and our drivers Naci and Sevki were kind and patient making our long drives enjoyable. Gallipoli was a bucket list of mine, and what a beautiful humbling experience it was, especially the following day tour of the cemeteries. Other than that highlight, the early morning hot air balloon and all the other sites the Kapadokya offers was pretty special too. I will be using Travel Talk again. 5 stars!

We did the 11 Day...

26-Apr-2024

We did the 11 Day Anzac Tour of Turkey. It. Was. Phenomenal. My husband and I absolutely love Turkey and were excited to explore the country. Highlights were definitely the Hot Air Balloons in Cappadocia and the privilege of attending the Dawn Service at Anzac Cove. A bucket list item ticked off. This was my second Travel Talk in 2024 and I would absolutely do another one in the future. The tour was organised and our guide, Mustafa, was fantastic.

One of the best holidays I’ve had

25-Feb-2021

We went on a tour of the Balkans and it was above our expectations. Bojan was the best tour leader gave us so much information about the places we were visiting but also a great laugh! The tour ran so smoothly and was the perfect way to see the area in a little amount of time. It was one of the best holidays I have been on, I loved every minute of it and I can’t wait to book another tour with travel talk. They are great value for money!

29-Oct-2023

Just completed the exotic Morocco tour with our excellent guide Abdul! He was one of the best tour guides I have met, he brought so much energy and knowledge on the tour and could not imagine doing the tour without him. The tour itself was so diverse, seeing so many different landscapes. It has been one of the best trips I have done. Would highly recommend!
