How to hire a luxury yacht?

How much does it cost to charter a yacht?

The cost to charter a yacht can vary depending on the amenities on the boat as well as the size and destination. On average, it can range anywhere from 500€ to more than 10,000€ a day. Typically it will cost 12,000€ a week for a modest yacht. Aside from the base price, you will have to account for the port fees as well as the fuel used for your journey. When renting a yacht, it is normal to have an "APA" (Advance Provisioning Allowance) that will cover these expenses. The APA is 30% of the amount of the initial hire and the unused balance will be paid back. It is also important to note that most prices are displayed without tax since the tax rate depends on the area of navigation as well as the vessels flag.

Do you need a license to hire a yacht?

Most of the yachts are rented with their own skipper and crew. Therefore, it is not necessary to have a license or any kind previous nautical knowledge to hire a yacht. Due to the large size of yachts, special licenses are required so it is best to use the professional skippers provided.
