- the staff are great - friendly and helpful. 
- but they’re difficult to hear on the boat so a lot of us were confused about what was going on. Also the photographer is constantly trying to get you to pose so they can sell you photos afterwards. 
- the snorkelling was fantastic, (make sure you use the flippers as it helps a lot!), and the views are incredible. 
- the buffet lunch was really bad. Awful cold and overcooked food. Crazy busy queues as all the boat tours get dropped there. Nice little beach there but the food was really awful. Defo pack a lunch.

Pros: The crew was friendly, the water was beautiful, the drinks were plentiful and the guacamole/chip snack was good.  Cons: no snorkeling instructions given, no fins for snorkeling and the current where we were dropped was the strongest I\'ve ever snorkeled in - it was hard to get back to the boat and several people were struggling without help from the crew - seems all they were interested in was taking photos to try and sell to you later.  They started handing out alcohol as soon as we took off from the pier - a first - all others we have been on wait until after you snorkeling.  Huge issue was they did not even take us where the tour description said.  They left us on Isla Mujeres for about two hours instead of the final stop on the tour of North Beach - the weather was great/hot so that was not the issue - and we specifically asked the boat captain if we were going there after Isla and he said yes - he would drop us a three minute walk from there and we would have about an hour on what he called the best beach in the world.   Didn\'t happen - he lied.  In Isla they dropped us and gave no clear instructions about how to find the boat when it was time to leave - they moved from where they dropped us to another pier.  Our group was asking ferry workers how to find our boat and wandering around in a huge crowd.  When we started cruising away from the island we asked again about the beach and he said we weren\'t going because we couldn\'t keep our transportation back to the hotel waiting - yet he motored back extremely slowly and kept pouring shots and other alcohol to everyone while pushing photo sales.  There were young teens on board and they blasted the nastiest music I have ever heard, with every cuss word, promoting violence and sex.  Very inappropriate. Back at the pier of origin I asked for the restroom and was sent up a shaky spiral staircase in a dilapidated building with a long hall of abandoned rooms - creepy - finally found a toilet in a former shower stall - no sink - no paper - beyond nasty.

It’s strenuous, exhausting but totally worth it. I strongly recommend proper hiking boots and before booking think carefully about your level of fitness! We took the tour offered by Platanos Tours. Nickos, our guide, was amazingly helpful and informative. Further explanations were given on the coach journey on the way to the start and he was the back marker for our group ensuring no one was left behind by mistake. He provided a great deal of insight and reminded the group that the hike was not suitable for people with certain medical conditions. He was an exceptional guide. A slight omission was that we weren’t told to look out for the yellow and black directional markers painted on some boulders along the way but this became quickly obvious. All the details regarding meeting points and arrangements for the return journey back to Chania were made very clear. Our coach driver, Manolis, was also excellent.  The mountain roads can be very twisty and at all times Manolis’s driving was calm and safe. The arrangements provided by Platanos Tours were clear, booking was easy, and the pick up time was punctual. I certainly would recommend this operator and their price was excellent. Great value in all respects. Tip: if you intend to swim at the end of the hike, pack some sandals / flip flops!

The gorge is a 16km downhill trek with some very steep sections and very unsteady underfoot rocks. This is not one for someone who\'s knees/joints are a little fragile. Walk is largely in shaded woods with some exposed sections. Multiple rest stops along the route. Easily managed in a pair of trainers that are grippy. Need to take food with you for snacking/sandwich but town at end of trail has some restaurants with standard Greek options. Our main feeling was you largely pay for the bus and the \"insurance\" of having the guide following at the back of everyone to make sure you\'re all ok. It\'s otherwise a largely self guided trek through a nice national park. Tickets to the park can be bought online €5 so get them before the bus as that\'s easier. The ferry back leaves at 530pm but we\'d finished by 1pm so pack swim shorts for the beach (multiple lounger type bars at the end). Our biggest criticism has to be pick up and drop off. Although we appreciated the advantages of the early entrance to the park, our bus pick up time was 0530hrs. The bus back then went to Chania despite having picked up these tour participants well after us in the morning first to drop them off. This meant an extra 45-60mins on the bus at the end of a very long day and was not appreciated. Surely those picked up latest should be dropped off latest to be fair. Otherwise it was well organised and let but largely self guided when actually there. The gorge is pretty and if you like nature walks then it\'s definitely worth a day trip. But you will be out all day!',3.0,'2023-07-06T14:34:10Z','REV-fe8SWWN6Vv9j1y4bd8WUNIXU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Ewan_H','VIATOR'),('105339P11','Samaria Gorge Trek: Full-Day Excursion from Chania','Samaria Gorge trekking','Wonderful tour and, in deed, it is not one of the easiest tours, but Elena, the tour leader, was very nice and helpful, she told us all the information and mentally prepared us for the tour.

It was everything that we expected and more. Anyone doing this hike needs to take on board the warnings and advice given by the tour operators. This is not a walk in the park. It’s strenuous, exhausting but totally worth it. I strongly recommend proper hiking boots and before booking think carefully about your level of fitness! We took the tour offered by Platanos Tours. Nickos, our guide, was amazingly helpful and informative. Further explanations were given on the coach journey on the way to the start and he was the back marker for our group ensuring no one was left behind by mistake. He provided a great deal of insight and reminded the group that the hike was not suitable for people with certain medical conditions. He was an exceptional guide. A slight omission was that we weren’t told to look out for the yellow and black directional markers painted on some boulders along the way but this became quickly obvious. All the details regarding meeting points and arrangements for the return journey back to Chania were made very clear. Our coach driver, Manolis, was also excellent.  The mountain roads can be very twisty and at all times Manolis’s driving was calm and safe. The arrangements provided by Platanos Tours were clear, booking was easy, and the pick up time was punctual. I certainly would recommend this operator and their price was excellent. Great value in all respects. Tip: if you intend to swim at the end of the hike, pack some sandals / flip flops! The beach is pebbled and very very hot so walking barefoot to get into the sea requires sandals but the cool clear water is great for tired legs!',5.0,'2023-09-06T10:27:27Z','REV-/iLqoBGIEMWAJnZiAZeV1Yvwqso//EmWErYCgMQDZjY=','en','anna201570','TRIPADVISOR'),('105339P11','Samaria Gorge Trek: Full-Day Excursion from Chania','Perfectly organised Samaria gorge hiking tour','A very well organised tour from pick up to drop off.

The gorge is a 16km downhill trek with some very steep sections and very unsteady underfoot rocks. This is not one for someone who\'s knees/joints are a little fragile.

The pick up is quite well coordinated but its an early start, its a bit of a bun fight at the port as the organisers have several different nationalities to deal with, all with our own strange idiosyncracy`s The ferries used are ok, the older one is more comfortable than the new ship which is odd. Breakfast and Dinner are laughable and not worth the title, take your own drinks and snacks for the way over. Bun fight disembarking, white knuckle ride up the cliffs.

The day began with a chaotic boat ride on Seajets. Our party was not on their list of passengers despite us having paid in full for the trip. They added our group to the list and issued us the boat tickets. Getting on the boat is chaotic - everyone climbs on the car deck and then there is a mass of people trying to enter. 

The main seating area on the boat is comfortable. 

Once we got off the boat, the bus tour began.  It was very hectic.  There was only one hour allotted at the main attraction - the city of Oia. The sound system on the bus was horrendous. The tour guide’s directions were confusing.  The tour guide himself did not join us into the main scenic area, as a result of which we found ourselves trying hard to find his suggested spots. Finally we saw the place in a rush by asking different store owners the way. The tour then went to Fira, the capital city. Again, it was rushed, with the guide pushing us to eat at one specific restaurant.

The tour operators sold hard a boat ride to a volcanic caldera. We opted into that boat ride - it turned out to be just that - a boat ride.  Since we did not know in advance that we would be able to swim in the hot springs, we just stayed on the boat.

Though Santorini was supposed to be the highlight of our visit to Greece, it was very underwhelming because of the way this tour was organized. We saw the main sights, took photos, but that was it.  I think they should have restricted the bus ride to Oia, and eliminated the boat ride to the caldera.  Perhaps they could have included a nice restaurant or bar in Oia for its view - even if we had to pay for the food consumed.',3.0,'2022-08-09T06:41:28Z','REV-pwmyWjC8EKCthIvIM6eC2IXU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Rema_D','VIATOR'),('105339P16','Full-Day Trip to Santorini island by Boat from Heraklion','Stunning','Oia ands Fira we’re both beautiful, would have liked more time in Oia….might just have to go back and stay 1 or 2 nights 😍',4.0,'2022-07-30T13:15:59Z','REV-qNTIhreJvOEcZaUfb0df8IXU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Brian_B','VIATOR'),('105339P16','Full-Day Trip to Santorini island by Boat from Heraklion','The trip was Not all what...','The trip was Not all what I paid for!!!

It was confusing to figure out where to meet the bus pickup. Once we figured out that we were supposed to meet them at a public bus station, it was confusing to figure out which bus to get on. The bus dropped us off at the port without instructions. We waited in a very long line and were handed a packet of tickets, again with no instruction. We boarded the boat and rode to Santorini and when we got off, we had no idea where to go. There were 20 busses in the parking lot and nobody had told us which one was ours (nothing said “Platanos or Viator). It turned out there was a handwritten number on the top ticket in the bundle and, apparently, that was the bus number. Things went more smoothly once we were on the bus. Our tour guide, Bruno, was very knowledgeable and fun. He communicated instructions clearly and provided helpful tips for each stop. 
Santorini was beautiful and did not disappoint. Oia was the better stop, the capital was not as picturesque and we didn’t know what to do there. I would have rather just spent the whole day in Oia.

Whilst the boat and coaches are quite well organised and comfortable, it is a long day, 14 hours from hotel pick up to drop off and out of those you will be either sitting in the boat or a coach for about 10 hours; the remaining 4 hours will either be given to ‘sightseeing’ herded around by an uninterested ‘guide’ or eating in a mediocre restaurant they recommend and probably get commission from.

Oia and Fira are unfortunately the two most commercialised (and expensive) towns on Santorini and you will very likely be visiting them together with literally thousands of other day trippers from boat excursions and cruise liners. 

At the time of our visit to Oia, the coach park must have had 30+ coaches in it, it’s alleyways we’re teaming with day trippers and you had to queue, 10 deep, to take photos of the views. The experience was manic, unpleasant and not the way to enjoy what Santorini has to offer.

We overheard a fellow day tripper on the boat back to Rethymno saying ‘ well that has made up my mind, I shall certainly not bother visiting Santorini again’, what a sorry impression to leave.

Santorini is a totally unique, stunning and interesting place to visit and offers so much more than a quick, crowded glimpse of Oia  and Fira can offer.

My advise would be, if you can, don’t bother with a day trip, your hard earned cash would be much better spent visiting Santorini for a few days at your leisure and experiencing Oia and Fira when all the day trippers have left.',2.0,'2023-10-10T10:42:34Z','REV-SqCZgSuMS0vXQTCMRi85/OQFb7be+PTDeH7hEX0/V7g=','en','dsyvs','TRIPADVISOR'),('105339P34','Full-Day Trip to Santorini island by Boat from Rethymno with Transfer your Hotel','Santorini 2023','The tour operator was great.

Wir haben also für die Tour bezahlt und konnten an der Tour nicht teilnehmen, da die Abholung am Hotel nicht eingehalten wurde.',1.0,'2022-08-12T02:57:29Z','REV-6CTxpP/JHmlDYdm/kJDvo1XFSUJaNhLSB4ANHp4rAO8=','de','luisafF4310UK','TRIPADVISOR'),('105339P4','Full-Day Kourna lake & Argyroupoli Crete Nature from Rethymno','Άψογη εξυπηρέτηση!','Η καλύτερη ομάδα και με την καλύτερη εξυπηρέτηση!

Our guide Catiana was excellent, she gave us lots of information en-route to the stopping places. 
The lake was ok, but it’s best to use that time to have something to eat with a lovely view over the lake.
The only reason we didn’t give it 5 stars was due to the bus being absolutely crammed full, although that was bearable for my wife and myself, if you are a tall person you may struggle with leg room.',4.0,'2023-08-19T14:05:44Z','REV-6uBfnMx9AbF55UsmeJ5RHgr4JIepV7alVNb0K1tHJXI=','en','Michelle R','TRIPADVISOR'),('105339P31','From Heraklion : Full-Day Bus Trip to Chania city , Kournas lake & Rethymno city','Super fact & fun day','It was a long but great day- travel agent was super explained so many facts and places-

You must bring good quality shoes (hiking shoes preferable)- no Converse or other city style shoes for this hike. The path is very rocky and the feet hurt.
It\'s not difficult for those who are fit and used to hike. For more regular people - it\'s quite challenging because of rocky path. You must be generally fit for such a hike.

Pia was always very nice and helpful and even spoke to all the guests in their own language (4 
or 5 different I  remember) while explaining and giving tips during the tour.
Gramvousa Island and Balos Bay were lovely,not to crowded  with the possibility to find a nice spot to relax.
The flow with getting the tickets for the ferry went on without any problems as well as the save drive back to the hotel.
The ferry itself was very very full (but it\'s of course not the fault of Platanos Tours) but it was possible to get something to drink and to eat.
It wasn\'t that special but nice to have something ( but you might avoid the packed \"hamburger\" ! 😉).
All together a lovely day trip.

We wouldn\'t be annoyed if it had just been advertised as such, but the description they offer is false. 
They advertise it as a \"tour\", with a tour guide, but it\'s not. You are crammed onto an old bus with at least 50 other people, with AC that does not work, and a \"tour guide\" chimes in every once in a while with inane \"fun facts\". Then they dump you at the ferry and you\'re on your own, the claim that the tour guide is with you all day is a lie. 
The price of this \"tour\" does not include the ferry ticket, which we realized beforehand luckily, so you have to bring the fare (27€-ish each) in cash. 
This \"intimate size\" with \"no more than 15 people\" is completely BS too.
The bus ride back, with everyone already sweaty and gross from being outside all day, was unbearably hot.
Again, if the description of the \"tour\" had been honest, we would not be so annoyed, but lying about the experience and not explicitly explaining the boat fare being separate is a shady move.

From visiting iconic landmarks such as the Burj Khalifa, Future museum, Dubai frame, Abu Dhabi day trip and the Dubai Mall to exploring the cultural heritage in Old Dubai, every day was filled with exciting adventures.
One of the highlights of the trip was the desert safari experience. The thrilling dune bashing, camel rides, and traditional entertainment in the desert were unforgettable. The evening dinner cruise along Dubai Creek was another memorable experience, showcasing the city\'s beautiful skyline while enjoying a delectable meal.
Lalit\'s attention to detail and personalized service truly stood out. He was readily available to answer any queries or concerns we had, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. His knowledge about Dubai and its attractions was commendable, providing us with insightful information and recommendations.

Just returned from a wonderful tour of Morocco with my husband and son. Abdou (our guide) and Aziz (our driver) were just wonderful.  They were both very knowledgeable,  keen to share their knowledge, very kind and a pleasure to spend time with. Nothing was too much trouble. 

Starting in Casablanca, we visited some amazing places.   Rabat, Meknes and on to Volubilis, which is just breathtaking.

Fez was a fascinating place to explore, the amazing souks and the tannery.  Great place for leather goods.

 Merzouga and our camel ride in Sahara Desert to experience sunset and sunrise was incredible. The camp was lush and the drumming was fun! 

Todra Gorge was probably my favourite place,  just loved it. 

 For film buffs Ait Benhaddou is a must,  Game of Thrones, Gladiator, Indiana Jones are just a few of the movies filmed at this incredible Kasbah.
 
Finally onto beautiful Marrakech to spend time in the souks and explore Jemaa el-Fnaa.

I would visit Morocco and use these guys again without hesitation. Just wonderful.',5.0,'2022-04-22T10:53:13Z','REV-XxPcloJSU2MHhlc0Ucw+ZWBqodxcswYY69Kbfy7lpdI=','en','448elisseb','TRIPADVISOR'),('105356P3','Sahara desert trip 2 days from Marrakech','Memorable trip and a great way to see Morocco 🇲🇦','This was my first agency planned tour ever, and also travelling solo, so wasn’t sure what to expect. The team at Atlas however exceeded expectations and provided excellent value for money. The tour started off with a hike into the Atlas Mountains (to the summit of Mt Toubkal for the really adventurous ones). The guides were experienced and paid attention to every member in the group and accommodated for everyone’s needs. Our accommodation and food was included for the whole trip (5 nights, 4 different locations) - tasty local food for both vegetarians and non vegetarians, comfortable beds, clean and spacious rooms, and clean bathrooms. From the Atlas Mountains, on day3 we set out into the desert in a private mini van. 
Stopping along the way to see many landmark sites and take pictures - for example, the Ait Ben Hadou, Dades Gorge, Todra Gorge, Tischka Pass, Valley of Roses to name a few places. When we arrived at the desert, the camel rides were included to and from the camp. It was a great experience riding the camels just before sunset and sunrise. We stayed at luxury tents with en-suite, and plenty of warm blankets. We also stopped along the way at some local shops to purchase Berber items such as rugs, clothing, souvenirs etc. Because of the guides we were never harassed or forced to purchase. Overall it was a great tour with a good group of other travellers who all got along well, and enjoyed the six days. Lots of wonderful memories to last a lifetime.  

I had booked a planned itinerary but the guys are really nice and can be flexible as needed, you just need to communicate what you want to do. This is great way to see the less visited (compared to Marrakesh/ Casablanca) and natural sights of Morocco. It’s also manageable for different budgets. 

Thanks to Hussein and his team - Mohammed, Abdul, Abdul Rahim, and Ibrahim for showing us around Morocco! I highly recommend using Altas for your visit to Morocco.',5.0,'2022-04-09T08:55:56Z','REV-bIvBkKiOD6oW40DFqHeoONyDNpVHxhsvvNC7ji9N67w=','en','dsouzamaria','TRIPADVISOR'),('105356P3','Sahara desert trip 2 days from Marrakech','El no viaje al desierto del Sahara','NO LO HAGAS¡¡¡¡¡

The guide, Abdel, was amazing. Really knowledgeable about the hiking and Morocco as a country in general - where to go, what to do, where is the real moroccan experience and where are classic touristy traps. 

Food and luggage were managed by Mohamed, who prepared really filling and nutritious meals. With luggage, we had taken one small suitcase for two people for mules to carry, however, considering the dust and on and off loading, we realised a smaller and less fancy bag would have been better.

Also, make sure to take passports - these are needed for checkpoints. 

Accommodation - very basic, with mixed-sex bunk beds next to each other. With loads of people in one room, it was noisy and smelly, which made us struggle to wake up early for our 2nd day of hike.

The guide, Abdel, was amazing. Really knowledgeable about the hiking and Morocco as a country in general - where to go, what to do, where is the real moroccan experience and where are classic touristy traps. 

Food and luggage were managed by Mohamed, who prepared really filling and nutritious meals. With luggage, we had taken one small suitcase for two people for mules to carry, however, considering the dust and on and off loading, we realised a smaller and less fancy bag would have been better.

Also, make sure to take passports - these are needed for checkpoints. 

Accommodation - very basic, with mixed-sex bunk beds next to each other. With loads of people in one room, it was noisy and smelly, which made us struggle to wake up early for our 2nd day of hike. Nevertheless, the lodge is good for what it is, considering it\'s remoteness to civilisation.

Rocky took me exciting and interesting places to see in old Dhaka.',5.0,'2024-01-24T13:04:38Z','REV-3V3HXmQXfFf2KdaZ6PguNWWvrvDqVPtphltbSwMwW/I=','en','stockw2024','TRIPADVISOR'),('105360P9','Dhaka City Tour in a Local Way - Explore Dhaka Like a Local !','Fantastic tour of Dhaka','I had one day in Dhaka and wanted to see as much as I could.

Dhaka is such a challenging city to navigate. We were able to see sites all over the city, when it would have taken me all day to travel to one site if I were left to my own devices. Rocky is knowledgeable and friendly, and I learned so much about the culture! As a woman traveling alone, I felt very safe on this tour and was able to travel to places I wouldn\'t be able to navigate safely alone. 
I strongly recommend booking the Bangladesh like a Local tour with Cholo. Dhaka is not a city that can be navigated solo if you don\'t know it well.

I’d highly recommend Rocky, not only because it’s a great tour but as an individual , he is passionate about his work, he reads his clientele and gives u precisely the amount of information that your brain can intake.',5.0,'2023-07-28T22:30:42Z','REV-ccSsTAnwayKrptDup9vrVL5eXYO45JaZVMVWQXxcugI=','en','itsvivek4u','TRIPADVISOR'),('105360P9','Dhaka City Tour in a Local Way - Explore Dhaka Like a Local !','Awesome tour','Had a great day in Dhaka with Rocky.

He is an incredible guide and seems like he understands western customs well, making you feel comfortable at all times.  

Highlights were the Sadarghat, boat ride, and Ship Repair/Salvage yards.  I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the tour, and would even recommend booking longer tours with Rocky outside of Dhaka, if you have the chance.',5.0,'2023-05-04T09:52:44Z','REV-KfFsVQJDQy+BFo2bDEgNaENqervi7+ctOBgi9mHmua0=','en','131jeffreyl','TRIPADVISOR'),('105360P9','Dhaka City Tour in a Local Way - Explore Dhaka Like a Local !','Dhaka in a local way as it is!','Amazing tour with rickshaw and experiencing Bangladesh in a local way!

Rocky helped me arrange a special tour-- Dhaka like a local combined with a food tour! 
Dhaka is such a challenging city to navigate. We were able to see sites all over the city, when it would have taken me all day to travel to one site if I were left to my own devices. Rocky is knowledgeable and friendly, and I learned so much about the culture! As a woman traveling alone, I felt very safe on this tour and was able to travel to places I wouldn\'t be able to navigate safely alone. 
I strongly recommend booking the Bangladesh like a Local tour with Cholo. Dhaka is not a city that can be navigated solo if you don\'t know it well. The tour was fun, professional, and so rich in sights and culture.',5.0,'2023-10-28T12:04:49Z','REV-9sCvjG1jbeltV/2XpbCGSIXcovXDaQMkB9eYxjmwQeQ=','en','750ardenw','TRIPADVISOR'),('105360P9','Dhaka City Tour in a Local Way - Explore Dhaka Like a Local !','Great experience','Rocky did a great job.
