“We joined the tour today, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The tour was conducted in Russian, even though we specifically requested an English-speaking tour, so we could barely understand anything throughout the day. Additionally, the website stated that the tour lasts 12–13 hours (until around 11 PM), but it ended up taking much longer — which caused a serious issue for me since I have work in the evening. The food was cold and poorly organized, and overall the tour management was very unprofessional.”

“Nice place to visit but I’d avoid going with this travel agency for sure. Non competent driver/guid. We were about to have accidents 2 times. We were two couples in this tour, we were all stressed during the road because of bad driving. We are also not sure if the driver was actually a guid , he didn’t tell us facts/stories about each attraction we visited. It was a strange not to have a professional guide for this price. He allowed other tour sales persons to keep coming and try to upsell us some non sense trip within our trip (ex electric car tour and 4x4 tour ..etc) Of course…”
