We all enjoyed daily exhilarating swims - even the reluctant swimmer. The water was always warm and inviting, endearing us to this lovely country of Turkey.

Wow! Everything was just perfect - the Boat, weather, swimming, scenery; but even more perfect was the lovely crew who made us so comfortable and gave us superb food.

Sleeping on the sunbeds at night has definitely been the highlight of my week. Finding all the small bays where no-one else has been. After sailing the Greek Islands 2 years ago we didn't think that could be topped - but you did and evem more - the food and service was top-notch.

Greg and Jan, Long Beach California
This has been a sublime experience. We are all now so thoroughly relaxed it will be difficult to disembark! Mehmet: you are the best captain at finding great swimming spots, with just enough breeze and no mosquitos! The food has been marvellous and abundant, most of all delicious. Ali: thank you for taking such good care of us especially when you picked up the jellyfish to see if was the stinging kind! Now that's dedication to your passengers! A beautiful boat and a charming crew. Thank you from all of us for a very special vacation.

Thank you for a fantastic week! Service, food and boat have been unsurpassable! Much needed relaxation, sun and swimming: it was all more than we could ever imagine!

This was a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday. We are coming back.

Although we have only been here for six days, being on board Odysseus was like being at home. Mehmet, Ali, Tugay and Mutlu made us feel like that, albeit that home was a five star floating hotel. Mehmet's skills in the gallery and on the high seas was unsurpassable; Ali's service, attention to detail and explanation of each dish presented before us was remarkable, especially his references to oilyoil and potatoes. Both were ably helped by Tugay and Mutlu. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. The lapping of the waves, the creaking wood on board at night, the weighing of the anchor, the sounds of the cockerels in the morning - all these are noises that will stay with us for a long time. The early morning swims, the sunrises and sunsets, the bays and the blue skies and blue seas, even the wind, will be remembered for a long time too. It really was an oasis of tranquillity and serenity, peace and relaxation amidst the troubles of the world, particularly so this week. It was like being in a different world.

Patrick and Victoria
The boat is fantastic and our fabulous crew was amazing. We have been pampered and treated like visiting dignitaries. The service, smiles and the growing friendship - thank you so much - it has been a magical, mystical tour!
