A gulet concept built for Aussies who know how to enjoy life.
Aussies On Boat brings together the natural charm of Turkish gulets with music, content moments, DJ performances and a social cabin-cruise atmosphere made for Australian travellers who want more than a standard boat trip.
Aussies already love gulet life. We just made it feel more like them.
We know Australian travellers love the gulet cabin-charter concept. They enjoy the sea, they know how to have fun, and they understand how to make the most of every minute. So we wanted to build something that goes beyond a classic cabin cruise.
That is why Aussies On Boat adds music, photography, content creation, onboard DJ performances, sunset parties and night-party style moments to the natural gulet experience — without losing the relaxed Mediterranean feeling that makes gulets special.
A cabin cruise is better when the people onboard share the same energy.
Same Mood Onboard
Age matters, but mood matters more. We bring together travellers who actually want to enjoy the same kind of social, fun and relaxed gulet experience.
Music & Moments
Good tunes, sunset sessions, DJ performances, content moments and onboard energy are part of the concept — not an afterthought.
Real Gulet Culture
We are not trying to turn gulets into cruise ships. We keep the natural wooden-boat feeling and combine it with a more modern, social experience.
We know which bay fits the music, the boat and the moment.
We are locals of this coastline. That means we know which bays are better for swimming, which ones work for music, which routes feel smoother, which boats suit which groups and which captains are the right fit for the experience we want to create.
Many of the boats involved in the AOB project are connected to the YourTourKey network. That gives us direct access to trusted boats, local captains and real operational control instead of just listing random options.
Founded by locals who know both the coast and the business.
Aussies On Boat was founded by Baran Bilgin and Emre Akkuş as a focused concept under the YourTourKey brand. The idea came from seeing the gaps in classic gulet cabin cruises and building something more social, more intentional and more alive.
This is not a faceless boat-listing page. It is a planned, operated and supported concept with real people behind the guest experience, the boats, the music, the routes and the brand.
Baran Bilgin
Baran focuses on guest communication, operations, choosing the right boat, captain coordination, tour-day comfort, customer requests and partnerships with tourism companies in Turkey and abroad.
Emre Akkuş
Emre works across customer reach, brand direction, social media, software, accounting and advertising team management — making sure the AOB concept reaches the right people and works as a serious brand.
Fun concept on the front. Real tourism operation behind it.
Aussies On Boat is a sub-brand of YourTourKey and belongs to the same company structure. YourTourKey brings around 10 years of local boat, gulet and tourism experience to the project, while AOB focuses that experience into a more social, music-led concept for Aussies.
YourTourKey’s role is simple but important: trusted boats, captains, local operations, route knowledge and the experience needed to understand what classic gulet products were missing.
Cabin cruise or private charter — same AOB concept, different setup.
Cabin Cruises
Choose AOB cabin cruises if you want to travel with people who match your energy. Before booking, we ask about expectations, age, music taste and travel style so we can place guests in the right boat and cabin setup.

Private Charters
Already have your Aussie crew? Take the boat private. Music, DJ performances, photo moments and the AOB-style onboard concept can also be built into private gulet charters.
Plan a private charter →We are not a luxury yacht club, a cruise ship company or a random tour seller.
Not a catamaran or big cruise-ship rental company.
Not a classic, boring tour-company experience.
Not a random reseller pushing whatever boat is available.
A planned gulet concept combining Mediterranean simplicity with proper music and social energy.
Registered, local, responsive and very reachable.
Guests can trust us because we are a registered company and travel agency, we work with boats we can stand behind, and we support guests quickly through WhatsApp and email before, during and after the trip.

We’ll sort the boat, the mood and the music.
Tell us your dates, your group size and what kind of energy you want onboard. We’ll point you towards the right cabin cruise or private gulet charter.
