Never again and nowhere with them!

To say it was terrible is an understatement.

We went on the May holidays with a group of 6 people. Naturally prepared in advance and paid for the tour. Yes, it was not expensive, because. lasted only 2 days and 2 more night trips from / to Ukraine. But we were ready for it.

We were not prepared for the fact that at least some comfort and time in other cities would be taken away from us.

It all started from Lvov... On the phone, our accompanying Taras said that the bus was delayed by 30 minutes. Later, 30 minutes turned into 2 hours, then another one and a half ... Bottom line: instead of the stated "departure from the Lviv railway station at 15:00", we left at 18:30. And all this time we spent on the street, in a cafe near the railway station and again on the street.

The bus turned out to be very comfortable and clean .. but it was not our bus. He just drove us to the Terminal.

At the Terminal, we were asked to wait more ... Specifically, we were not told how long to wait. But they said that the tour may not take place at all, because. there is no bus for us (as it turned out later, the accord sent 54 buses over the past couple of days).

At 20:00 we finally left the Terminal. The bus was already worse than the previous one, but tolerable. Let me explain why we were so picky about the bus: firstly, 2 night journeys should be at least comfortable, and secondly, there were men among us who were tall and when buying a tour we were convinced that the buses were comfortable and in all places (not paid) sufficient legroom.

And so ... 20:00 the whole group in the bus. It is full, only a couple of seats in the back are free. It seems that everyone has calmed down and are waiting for the border. At night we passed the border quite quickly. There were certainly nuances, but it could be worse, agree?

After crossing the border, our "super-guide" tells us another "pleasant" news: the bus does not go further with us, and another bus is waiting for us - already the third one!

Of course, we hope that the bus will be no worse, and maybe even better. But...the bus was smaller!!! and there weren't enough places. How so???!!

As a result: the bus will not change anymore, there is not enough space (the bus is old and is no longer intended for such transfers, people are scandalous because they paid for one thing (after all, someone paid extra money for the front seats, and someone for an extra seat nearby ), but it gets completely different !!!

After a while, everyone was seated, no one wanted anything but to return home as quickly as possible. The bus started moving and our "super-guide" Taras tells us another news: instead of a whole day in Vienna, we will spend 3 hours there.

Guess the reaction of the bus passengers?

There was one ooooh huge plus these days - our hotel in Budapest. 4*, spacious rooms, delicious breakfast. Too bad we were only there for 1 night and didn't have time to enjoy the hotel.

In Budapest, we were shown from the bus window "the windows of the hotel, near which we meet after a walk." And this is another brilliant move of our "super guide"

We crossed the border to Ukraine very quickly and unnoticed by us. But the driver had problems - according to rumors, he did not have any documents for passenger transportation.

Oddly enough, we were brought to the Terminal exactly at 8:00, as stated in the info sheet.

Naturally, none of the tourists received any apologies.

Let this be an additional experience for us.

Tour: Hungarian Czardas. Vienna-Budapest. Flight 888.
