The Ultimate Aegean Experience Greece & Turkey: Gulet to Island Escape
Two countries. Two iconic experiences. One unforgettable singles holiday. This exclusive Aegean Gulet & Rhodes Escape combines a week sailing Turkey’s stunning coastline on a traditional Gulet with a relaxed week on the Greek island of Rhodes — designed for solo travellers who want more than just another beach break.
Why This Greece & Turkey Combination Works
Why choose between sailing or island life when you can have both? The Turkish Gulet and Rhodes holiday is perfect for solo travellers who want variety, depth and connection - not just another hotel stay..This holiday delivers contrast, balance and flow. You begin with adventure and connection at sea, then slow the pace with culture, comfort and island living.
