Booking a gulet uner a last minute promotion is more and more popular every year. But is this way of making a reservation truly the best? Sometimes it is, of course. You can get truly amazing deals with huge discounts on realy great gulets, which are available just in your desired week. But a lot of times, last minute bookings can leave a bed taste in your mouth.

In this BLOG I will write all advantages and disadvantages of making LAST MINUTE GULET CRUISE BOOKING.

LAST MINUTE GULET CRUISES - Good things:
     - you can get huge discounts
     - if you book last minute gulet cruise, you can get truly big discount
     - last minute reservations are sometimes truly amazing

You probably think this are all the same thing....But when you look more closely....THEY REALY ARE! Last minute bokings are cheaper, but this is more or less only advantage you will get. If you do not care so much about the quaity of the gulet, if you do not mind the itinerary you will have during your cruise and if you are a bit flexible on your travel dates, then last minute reservations are okey for you. But sometimes paying 10% more for your booking is not such a bed idea. You will see it ob BED THINGS LIST

LAST MINUTE GULET CRUISES - Bed things:
     - on "normal" bookings, clients have to send 4 weeks before their departure preference list, which helsp the crew to prepare for the clients arrival. This is not done for a reason so early. Behind 1 group gulet cruise there is a lot of organization, so if a reservation is made from today till tomorow, crew will not be able to prepare for your group perfectly
     - there is always a connection between price and quality. In a perfect world, even if you paid 10.000 € for the gulet that has price 20.000 € the level of services should be the same. Unfortunatly this is only in the perfect world. It is impossible to offer same services for half of the money.
     - there are more then 500 gulets to choose from in the market. This means there will always be some last minute deals available. But on last minute market, you can choose between 3 to 5 different gulets, if you search for gulets early, you can choose between more then 100 gulets in your price range. So you can truly find a gulet that can 100% match your expectations
     - Earlier you book, more details you can decide about your trip. You can choose special route totaly tailor made according to your wishes. You can choose which activites you wish to do. You can even make your own menu on board. With last minute bookings this is almost immpossible or it is very very hard
     - In this days, you can actualy get higher early booking disconts on some gulets then as last minute.
     - Best gulets, with best services, with best food and best crew get booked very fast. So if you want the best experience, you should hurry and book a gulet with best name, tradition and experience. This kind of gulets will never be available as last minute.

A lot of times it truly pays off to make a boking early, to secure your period in time and get the best gulet in the market, even if you paid a bit more then you might LAST MINUTE.
