Customer reviews & ratings
Es war f�r uns ein einzigartiges Erlebnis, das ich nicht missen w�rde. Die geplanten Aktivit�ten waren cool und super geplant! Dennoch habe ich das Gef�hl, nicht viel gelernt und die Tage vor Ort nicht optimal genutzt zu haben. Das ist schade. Ich denke, dass es sehr abh�ngig von dem Guide ist, den man hat, wie die Zeit zwischen den Aktivit�ten gef�llt wird. Da war in unserem Fall noch Platz f�r Verbesserung. N�chstes mal w�rde ich au�erdem eine Tour buchen, bei der man sich mehr bewegt. Es war mir zu viel sitzen und essen und warten. Aber das hat zum angegebenen Fitnesslevel (m��ig) gepasst, daher ist dies keine Kritik an der Tour an sich! die Tour an sich war sehr toll und abenteuerlich, es gab aber einige Punkte, weswegen ich ggf eine andere Tour oder anderen Anbieter empfehlen w�rde.
Maren Oct, 2024 VerifiedThat I definitely recommend it to friends and family. It is great to get to know new people and learn interesting facts about the country and culture. Especially when you want to get to know new people and learn more about the country?s culture, history and traditions, it is the best to have a local guide as well. Nabil was fantastic!
