(3.3)Kekova Tour, nice Tour without resonable enough Time.
Time of departure was changed 3 Times, it was a day long trip with at most half an hour time for each sight seeing, thats too short to get even a clue for the things to see and explore. Meal was very expensiv(Drinks where much too expensiv) and not delicious. The St. Nicolaus Church was under maintance and we couldnt see the most parts of the church. Only good Thing was the Tour guide, she was kind and very helpfull.

(2.3)It was a bad experience!
How could a tour be good with Russian tourists and a Russian guide who speaks poor English? Not with this tour, but Demre and Kekova are worth seeing. By the way, Russian tourists were very happy.
