Travel agency: КолоКрай (Kyiv) Service type: экскурсионный тур |
I went on 22.08 - 24.08 on a tour to the Pamir radar station.
This is my first experience, and probably my last.
Everything is bad: from organization to communication.
The whole trip (which is 4 days / 3 nights) did not leave the feeling of total swindle and the desire of Kolokray to earn money at all costs without straining.
On the day of departure it turned out that:
- Instead of one bus, they took two;
- for this purpose, they urgently found a driver with a minibus, who drives well, but the region where he got involved in driving does not know at all.
- two normal guides for 2 groups, as I understand it, could not be either. At the last moment, a replacement was found for the sick woman: she turned out to be a teacher of Russian language and literature, who knows neither the history of the Chernivtsi region, nor a tooth in the Ukrainian language.
- "tour guides" did not provide qualitatively new / interesting information on the visited objects: sheer balabolism "about nothing"
- the most diverse audience in terms of both age and interests: from teenagers with parents to pensioners with sticks, mixed with HR aunts and anecdotal accountants ... sadness and melancholy
- and this is for 5000 UAH per person, which, as for me, for such poor quality, is prohibitively much.
Summary: organization/communication/preparation is disgusting. The only good thing is that by a miracle we still got to the Pamirs, for the sake of which, in fact, everyone went.
I advise: those who are happy with everything described above.
I do not advise: young people, as well as those who value money and time.
