Title: Moonlight Cruise
Post by: Shellage on March 31, 2009, 11:58:37 AM: Whilst in Kalkan, for the first time, it is my partners birthday and I would like to book something special. Is anyone aware of any companies that run good quality evening dinner cruises? I don''t want to book dinner at a restauarnt as we will be doing that quite a lot during the holiday, so I am looking for something that bit extra special! Thanks for any info.

I was hoping to get something booked before we arrived as a little difficult to arrange a surprise when we are both there, but I will find a way to sneak off to the harbour and book something without him knowing. Good to know evening cruises are available anyway, thanks.

We think if you e mail jacksonvictoria@hotmail.com you will be able to book Ali''s boat. He is always very busy so best booked in advance.
Have a great time

Most men would welcome the opportunity to have a beer instead of window shop ;D ;D

Thank you for the suggestion of romantik.com but I can''t seem to find anything to do with boat trips? Is this the correct info?

None of the boats offer regular or scheduled moonlight cruises, they are on a special booking basis. Reason being there are apparently not enough people who regularly want to do moonlight cruises so it is a ''special'' trip.
