Sehr empfehlenswert!

Unser Reiseleiter Hasan war außergewöhnlich! Er war freundlich und geduldig zu uns allen und hat unsere täglichen Aktivitäten auf höfliche Weise hervorragend erklärt. Hasan sorgte ständig dafür, dass wir uns wohl fühlten und alles hatten, was wir brauchten. Dank ihm war unsere Erfahrung nicht nur angenehm, sondern auch unterhaltsam und voller Lachen, das wir mit ihm und dem Team geteilt haben. Ich kann eine Buchung bei diesem fantastischen Team nur wärmstens empfehlen! Sie waren alle wunderbar, sprachen Englisch, Deutsch, Arabisch und Russisch und kümmerten sich um Touristen aus verschiedenen Teilen der Welt. Vielen Dank für ein unvergessliches Erlebnis!

Tolle Erfahrung!

Es war ein lustiger Tag. Der Gruppenleiter war sehr gut. Rafting, Quadfahren, Jeepsafari und Ziplining haben mir sehr gut gefallen. Das Essen war nur okay, nicht zu gut. Außerdem mussten wir für alles, von Handyhüllen über Raftingschuhe bis hin zu Getränken, mindestens 10 Euro bezahlen. Es wäre besser gewesen, wenn die notwendigen Dinge für die Aktivitäten im Voraus erwähnt worden wären. Ich fand das Abzocke.

Das Rafting war sehr schön, das war es aber auch schon Minus gibt es für die schlechte Kommunikation und Organisation. Es war reine Massenabfertigung und alles musste sehr schnell gehen. Der Ton vom Guide war wie beim Militär und so kam man sich auch vor. Wir hatten den Ausflug Rafting plus Zipline, Buggy fahren und Angeln gebucht. Es gab keinerlei Infos dazu wann dies stattfinden sollte. Auf Nachfrage wurde gesagt, später, später…. Bei erneuter Nachfrage in der Mittagspause erfuhren wir das hier unser Rafting zu Ende wäre und wir dann Buggy fahren, und Zipline machen könnten. Angeln nicht, weil dazu hätten wir schließlich nicht auch noch Zeit. Die anderen Raftinggäste sind dann mit den Guides weitergefahren bis die Strecke zu Ende war. Somit standen wir dann alleine da, ohne Guides und wussten weder wann und wo Treffen ist bezüglich des Rücktransfers. Persönliche Gegenstände wie Handy und Geld waren im Transferbus eingeschlossen. Der Bus sollte dann an der Endstation des Raftings wieder losfahren. Es war katastrophal! Der Oberguide war nicht sonderlich freundlich sondern wirkte nur gestresst und brüllte die Leute nur an wenn es nicht schnell genug ging. Letztendlich haben wir nur noch das Buggy fahren gemacht! Wenn man solche Kombiausflüge anbietet sollte dies auch umsetzbar sein. Es kann nicht sein, dass ich mich blöd von dem Guide anmachen lassen muss wie ich mir das vorstelle und sagen lassen muss das für den Rest keine Zeit mehr ist. Des Weiteren wäre es auch schön, wenn man auch nur so viele Gäste auf einen Ausflug plant, wie es auch Sitzplätze im Transferbus gibt. Wir wurden als letztes abgeholt, waren drei Personen. Es waren aber nur noch 2 Sitzplätze vorhanden. Einer von uns musste dann auf der Treppe im Bus sitzen. Die Transferzeit betrug ca. 60 Minuten.

Lovely day out and great communication and time keeping by Vigo and partners

Lovely day out for family of 5 including 2 teenagers and a pre-teen. We only did rafting. We were the last pick up so the transfer was just over an hour. Guide was jolly and created. a good atmosphere throughout. He didn’t really speak much English but the other family in our boat were German/Turkish and remembered some English from school. Beautiful views and nice time boating. Blue clear water. The water itself was cold but a refreshing cold rather than freezing. We made a stop soon after the boat ride began where they were selling food and drink. We declined and thankfully they weren’t pushy. The guy taking videos through the trip disappeared at the end so didn’t have hassle to buy the video. The included lunch was made more special by the tea making every effort to ensure that our family of vegetarians not only had enough to eat but enough variety. We've been rafting before so probably could have handled more thrills but the guide understandably was playing safe with the children. Great value for money.

Toller Ausflug

Hatten die Tour kurzfristig über die Internetseite gebucht. Alles wie vereinbart geklappt. Das Wasser war zu der Jahreszeit im September nicht so hoch, aber der Spaß blieb nicht auf der Strecke. Die Tour wird von Dallas Rafting ausgeführt. Natürlich wird bei dem Preis noch versucht ein paar Sachen extra zu verkaufen. Aber alles im Rahmen und nicht aufdringlich. Wasserschuhe 9 Euro, Foto 4 Euro, Video 20 Euro, Getränke 2 Euro, Bier 4 Euro, Zip Line 9 Euro. Essen und Boote machen einen guten Eindruck sowie Helm und Schwimmweste. Kann die Tour auch für Familien empfehlen, so ab 5 Jahren werden die Kinder viel Spaß haben, Auf den Fotos sieht es wilder aus als es wirklich ist.

Reply from Vigo Tours: Thank you very much for your review!

Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Ihnen die in Zusammenarbeit mit Vigo Tours und Dallas Rafting organisierte Rafting-Tour gefallen hat. Es ist unsere oberste Priorität, dass unsere Gäste unsere Aktivitäten und Touren genießen. Wir arbeiten sehr gewissenhaft und hart mit unserem Team und unseren Geschäftspartnern zusammen, um dies zu gewährleisten. Mit unserer 21-jährigen Erfahrung sind wir stolz darauf, mit unseren Touren und Aktivitäten eine hohe Kundenzufriedenheit erreicht zu haben.

Wycieczka raftingowa z Side

Podczas naszych wakacji w Side uczestniczyliśmy w wycieczce raftingowej z biurem podróży Vigo tours jako 7 osób. Spędziliśmy wspaniały dzień jednym słowem. Wszystkim nam się podobało i spędziliśmy bardzo przyjemny dzień.
