Bawiliśmy się na wycieczkach świetnie!

February 10, 2021

Zdecydowanie mogę polecić biuro Nil Woyage.

podczas naszych wycieczek w Luksorze, Safari i domu delfinów nie było absolutnie żadnych problemów, bawiliśmy się na wycieczkach świetnie! Mają duży wybór wycieczek fakultatywnych, wszystkie te wycieczki się odbywały. Pierwszy raz byłam z nil woyagem i na pewno nie ostatni! Wreszcie znalazłam jakieś porządne biuro, które dba o swoich turystów! ”

Izlet Mega safari iz Hurgade da posjetite beduine u pustinji je prevazislo moja ocekivanja…izrazito dobra organizacija, prekrasno mjesto, strucan vodic. Predlazem da se uzmu svi fakultativni izleti u Hurgadi, jer se zaista ima sta za vidjeti. Ovo je sigurno jedno od najboljih putovanja na kojima sam bila.
