Wasted time

The trip is not worth the holiday day. The first thing they do is drive you to a store to buy something. Lunch is not served by the river as described , it takes place in an alley. Boat tour is cancelled due to the weather and the city stroll was also not done which was not due to the weather. The stalactite cave and the Damlatas cave were not shown to us either, although that was how it was described. Even on the way back they tried to sell you something. Can only recommend to everyone to save the money and time !!!!

Very good !!

Was a lovely day well organised the guide was great.. explained it well and was funny. The only thing was we didn't have enough time in bazaar at the start. Also on the boat we purchased our drinks - the cans of Fanta and coke were out of date!!!
