(4.0)It could be better
Communication with Vigo tours was satisfactory. I wanted to change the date of my kayaking and it worked. However, it turned out - happily I came to look for the buro one day earlier - that first, people in the buro does not know about me and secondly that they do not have kayaking the next day. Asking if I could go one day later- I agreed. However again, I received a info on email that I can go at the day I planned, (the 15th of Mai). I was the only one on the kayak tour! I accepted this - it would be nice to be asked what I prefer; the change of date or kayaking alone. I had one guide who claimed to be 20 years in the job. After so long time he could have had a guided tour prepared in English in an interesting and explanatory way. He also could have learned this language to the level of easy communication. The tour itself is more interesting when you hear about the history and what you really see. For his way of guiding, I give a barely 3. My guide seemed to be not very interested in what he was doing; but rather in finishing the tour and going to other activities. He took pictures of me in order to have "some extras" but they were not made with feeling. On the last part of kayaking, he went so far away that I couldn't see him and was confused not knowing where to turn. I have weak eyes and need to have a kayak close ahead to me so that I can follow him (he was informed about it). So, as in the title: it could be better.

(5.0)Морская байдарка по затонувшему городу Кекова
Я и мой друг останавливались в Олимпос Чиралы, и мы совершили отличные горные походы в течение 1 недели. Мы нашли Виго туры в поиске в Интернете морского каякинга. Мы на собственном автомобиле поехали к месту старта тура, Учагизу. Виго туры предоставил нам местоположение в Google, и мы встретились с группой там. Совершили замечательный и незабываемый тур на морской байдарке по затонувшему городу острова Кекова. Это было просто потрясающе.
