Csodálatos este

Hatalmas köszönet a Vigo Tours-nak a fantasztikus szervezésért! Az online foglalás gyors és egyszerű volt, semmi várakozás. A Boszporusz esti fényei lélegzetelállítóak, és a vacsora igazán ízletes volt, tele helyi ízekkel. A török műsorok különleges élményt adtak, a hastáncos lenyűgözött! Ez egy felejthetetlen este volt, mindenkinek ajánlom a Vigo Tours szolgáltatásait!

Великолепный вечер

Большое спасибо Vigo Tours за потрясающий вечер! Организация была на высоте: мы быстро забронировали билеты онлайн, все прошло гладко. Сам круиз был сказочным: ночной Босфор впечатлил своими огнями и атмосферой. Еда была вкусной, особенно понравились местные блюда. Турецкие шоу — это отдельное удовольствие, танец живота просто заворожил! Мы прекрасно провели время и получили массу эмоций. Очень рекомендую этот тур и компанию Vigo Tours!

Una buena noche

El crucero fue agradable y las vistas del Bósforo espectaculares. La comida estuvo bien, pero no destacable. Los espectáculos fueron divertidos, aunque un poco cortos. En general, estuvo bien.
