Shared boat trip vs private charter from Kaş — which is worth it?

Side-by-side comparison of two popular Kaş boat trips, with duration, price, what's included and who each one suits best.

Quick answer

Shared boat trips like the Kaş Bays & Islands tour put you on a small-group boat with other guests for around €35 per person; a private charter gives your group the whole boat — captain, crew, route — from about €390 for the day. Above roughly six guests, the per-person cost evens out and privacy becomes the bonus.

Our recommendation

Below five guests, the shared boat is the obvious value. From six up, the private charter starts making mathematical sense and gives you control over the day. For special occasions, book private even at four guests — the difference shows up in the photos.
