Fully Crewed Vessels
All charters include a full crew and it is their job to ensure that you and your group have a magical holiday; should you require anything, just ask one of the crew and they would be happy to oblige. The great thing about having an experienced crew is that they are very familiar with the region and when you feel like snorkelling, they know all the best spots.
Online Solutions
Sourcing a reputable yacht charter operator is best achieved with a Google search and once on their website, check out the yachts and read all about the experience and when you are ready to talk to a staff member, click on the chat window and youâre good to go. Make sure you factor in visas and also keep abreast of the current Covid situation prior to making any firm plans.
If you calculate what a regular 3-week resort holiday will cost and compare this to the âper headâ cost of the yacht charter, you will see that yacht holidays are very reasonable with shared costs in a group. Your food, drink and accommodation are all onboard and when the skipper leaves the port, prepare for an amazing experience cruising South East Asia.
