Blue Voyage and Wild Boar Hunt
TROFE Hunting Safaris is the owner of 2 wild boar hunting grounds of total 245.000 hectares within the coastal area of the Aegean and Mediterranean seas. We use this to our advantage and organise unforgettable hunting holidays so, on this programme, you can spend your daytime visiting the marvellous and unique crystal clear coves of our breath-taking coastline where you can swim, fish, do water sports and sunbathe. After sunset you will have the opportunity to go ashore with our hunting guide and have the opportunity to hunt wild boars with record fang length so that you can combine a special holiday on a gulet with your family and friends while still enjoying the thrill of your passion for hunting! Just like our standard stalking hunts, our professional guides will prepare the hunting grounds for you – the only difference will be that instead of staying at hotels you and your family or group of friends will have the magnificent opportunity to stay on de-luxe gulets. The best period to combine wild boar hunting with a Blue Voyage experience is between May and October. Every wild boar hunter must experience this at least once in his lifetime.You can choose to hire a de-luxe or ultra-de-luxe type gulet for one week from our company. The size of our gulets are 22m, 26m and 30m long with 4, 6 or 8 cabins. All our gulets have 2 master cabins with a Jacuzzi and all cabins have their own shower and toilet. They also have central cooling system, plasma TV and double beds. All our crews are specially trained and include a qualified cook to ensure that you have the very best of cruising experience.
