39 Years of memories

Jun 16, 2026

2026 will see the last of gulet parties on board the Cevri Hasan 5. These escorted holidays were initially held on board the Cevri Hasan 1 and 2 before moving on to the new Cevri Hasan 3 in 1992. Following the retirement of both captain Mustafa and the boat itself in 2018 (our 30th anniversary year) we upgraded to the luxury Cevri Hasan 5. This wonderful gulet and its current captain Taner and crew will continue to provide first class services to clients bookiing private charters.

“Our guest book sometimes isn’t kind, when looking at old photos, but it is kind with the memories of Turkey. Without DayDreams and Jenny’s knowledge of the history, we would know nothing of Turkey and her people (who are very welcoming). Age has the benefit of taking the edges off bad memories sometimes and stacking up the good memories. It must be the influence of the Cevri Hasans (thanks to Captains Mustafa, Hasan and Tanner and your various crews). The food is always excellent. A chapter closed when Captain Mustafa and his boat retired. Just remember how much pleasure has been created over the years”. Terry & Glennys Bradley – regular clients from Yorkshire

ABOUT US

DayDreams Travel offers gulet holidays, both private charters and cabins only, on a diverse range of gulets from low budget to luxury and superior deluxe gulets, with numerous flexible itineraries along the Turkish coastline and Greek Dodecanese islands.

DayDreams Travel was founded by Jenny Day in 1987 following a corporate weekend to Istanbul for 100 clients from her London based PR consultancy. Using her expert organisational skills she went on to organise several gulet charters. They were so successful the word spread and her dream of offering a special style of holiday to a wider audience become a reality.

TESTIMONIALS

“Jenny, we had a wonderful holiday ! All said it was the best, a few tears from some when it came to an end. Even the 18 month old was running around at the end without any fear. Captain Taner was great in getting the younger ones to water ski. I cannot fault anything and that includes all you did at your end, thank you” Mr Charles Aldous from England travelled on the Cevri Hasan V with his extended family in July 2013.
