Travel agency: Орбита Туроператор (Kyiv) Service type: экскурсионный тур |
We went on a tour to Sri Lanka from 18 to 28. 09. 2010. The group leader was a representative of the tour operator "Orbita" Svetlana Sviridenko. Before that, we heard positive reviews about this company, but in reality it turned out that this is far from the case. Starting from the airport, this person did not actually fulfill her duties, even elementary ones. Most of the group traveled half the world, and they know how the leaders should work, and given that we had a representative of other tour operators with us, even more so. Upon arrival in Sri Lanka, the host party wanted to convince us that for all excursions in which we should be paid additionally, although this was included in the amount we paid in the program, and if we had not rebelled and personally demanded an explanation from the representative of the host party , and did not force Sveta to take action, then we would probably have to pay extra for it. Aitken Spencer Travel - Host of Sri Lanka. After that, the leader did not maintain a relationship with the group at all, the entire tour program was completely changed, we did not know where we were going the next day, everything had to be decided directly by the guide Chan, who had a rather weak command of Russian and did not have the necessary information about his country, in general, 3 minus, and besides this, by deception, he took possession of 100 US dollars of one of us, whose luggage was lost at Sharjah Airport (UAE). That is, we didn’t have a leader, when we contacted her for the necessary information, we sometimes received expressions with obscenities, and only when they started filming her on video, he tried to restrain himself. Thank God the group was mostly composed of adequate people. There is much more to write about this person Sveta, the representative of Orbit. But thank God that we had no incidents, otherwise we could only rely on ourselves. Upon arrival in Kiev, we complained directly to the head of the Udod company, but no one listened to us, an hour and a half was wasted, which indicates that this company is not as good as they said about it, perhaps people who created a positive image no longer work there, but the director spit on us customers. It felt like our leader, more than 30 years old, came to us from the Soviet of Deputies. So think very carefully when dealing with Orbit and the host from Sri Lanka. But Sri Lanka is worth going to, and if not for a good group and a beautiful country, it would not be very fun.
