5 star service. Very nice bus for pick up and drop off. Nice and cold inside. The tour guide was the best by far very charming and helpful. The food on boat was also very nice. My son said the best foot he had so far, and we are staying in 5star hotel 1,5 for Basar is not enough at all. But you get a possibility to take a taxi back to your hotel if you would like to stay at Basar a bit longer

First we went to a large store as a stopover where you had half an hour to look (very expensive!) Then we went to the waterfall / market there we had an hour to take pictures etc. Then we went by boat and on the way back we got a swimming break of half an hour and afterwards we had dinner (chicken with rice baguette and salad) very tasty in my opinion. Then we went to a mosque where you could enter for half an hour (really very beautiful) then we went to the grand bazaar where we had an hour to do, in my opinion. I give 4 stars because we had to drive a lot with the van to go back and forth and it was really extremely hot in the bus. But everywhere it was really great and I definitely recommend it to everyone!!

Not quite as advertised but still great value for money! It took a long time (over an hour) to pick up all the passengers but we then headed to the pirate ship for a cruise down the river. We stopped to spend some time on a deserted beach then back to the moore for lunch (chicken, rice and salad). Next stop was the bazaar for shopping and then short stop at the small waterfall which was nice but unimpressive. Would recommend.
