At the Marmaris Yacht Charter Festival, we inspected Gulet after Gulet and yacht after yacht. The luxury level Gulets and yachts all had wireless internet connection available throughout the yacht via a GSM cellular signal, for no additional charge for on board unlimited use during the charter. We were thrilled and amazed. We cruised on board the luxury Gulet Mare Nostrum along the southern Turkish coast from Marmaris to Bodrum and always had a strong GSM cellular signal and wireless connection. While we have seen some wireless internet connection available in some luxury yachts in other worldwide locations, rarely is there NOT an additional charge to the Charterer for on board use. The charter fleet in Turkey is at the forefront of worldwide yacht charter in on board wireless internet connectivity.

During our travels in Turkey, we stayed in hotels in Istanbul, Marmaris and Bodrum. At each hotel, on request, we were given a password for free internet wireless unlimited use from the comfort of our hotel rooms. We stayed in both high level and moderate level hotels and were offered free wireless internet. After charges incurred in other locations staying in hotels for wireless internet use charged by the hour, half day and day, we were very pleased with this amenity now being offered in Turkey.
