Hello. First time in Cyprus. Been to many places before. Traveled for 13 days with a fellow traveler. Let's get started.
Country - combed Crimea. People are an intelligent scoop. Prices - as we have in supermarkets. Cafes - 10-15Ё from the nose. The beaches are all public and free, so every time I sunbathed in a different place. Sun loungers and umbrellas are paid. But if you sunbathe before dinner, then you can get it for free: tax collectors go before dinner. The food at the hotel is a real austerity, but I was fine.
I will describe my average breakfast and dinner: Breakfast: a glass of milk, milk with dumplings (that's what I call corn flakes), 2 sandwiches with honey and cheese, 4 slices of Adyghe cheese. There is an opportunity to make sandwiches for the whole day - the waiters don't care, because there are only Russians and everyone is already used to it.

2 Dinner: Salads or vegetables drizzled with olive oil, fish (or meat), scrambled eggs/spaghetti, olives, oranges, rice and grated cheese on top.
The room is small but clean. We cleaned every day. Never left a tip. For things and passports - they were not afraid.
There is nothing to do on the territory of the hotel. Unless there is an abandoned water park behind the hotel - you can climb there from hell to do.
Havka - stocked up at Lidl. I often bought juice there for 1Ё per liter and for 2-2.50Ё I bought a box (6 pcs) of awesome ice creams in a biscuit or tube for a promotion.
Animals - there are cats, no dogs. A bunch of geckos running around - funny creatures. Hungry fish swim in the sea near volcanic reefs - they eat everything. I counted 8 varieties. There are crabs and funny snails.
Flora - lawns, palm trees, flowering trees, lemons - on the territory of the hotel, free watermelons, melons and oranges in the gardens. Now the figs are ripening. Plus - red delicious crap grows along the roads. Plum size. Produces milk. Tastes like dogwood. They ate a lot and not one day - alive. But the locals don't eat (get drunk, bitches).
Excursions - I personally went only to Famagusta. Was satisfied. The rest of the excursions are rare crap: it takes 3-4 hours to go for 15 minutes to splash in the fountain or just "for show".
Climbing - it was great to save the phone with a Google map loaded in advance through a free Wi-Fi. We climbed on foot all the nearby villages within a radius of 15 km. Quite unstressed. I categorically recommend walking in CAVO GREKO to the cape. From there you can return home along the promenade - through various interesting caves and interesting volcanic embankments. Very, very, very beautiful. A bunch of benches just on the edge of the cliff overlooking the sea.
Budget - for almost 2 weeks I spent only 100Ё. FOR ALL.
Okay, even zae . . write - still no one will read it.
CONCLUSION: Go safely to this hotel - it costs a penny. The staff is almost invisible - and that's great! Purely. 95% of guests - CIS. Well, what's in the ass - but shake the rolls, and you won't be stupidly lying and bored.

We went to Bulgaria for two years in a row with Mediatour and Doris. Both times we were satisfied with the paperwork and transportation. We chose the hotel ourselves, so that later we would not make any claims against anyone. We were also lucky with the hotel. The buses are new, comfortable, there were no complaints about the drivers, the main thing is not to sleep at the wheel. We made stops at parking lots, they counted us all the way, we didn’t swear. And they went to Europe with the Accord-tour, then they were afraid all the way that the 25-year-old neoplan would not fall apart. When it started to rain in Krakow, our tourists were sitting on wet harnesses, and we were sitting under the hatch from which it was always drafty, and it was cold with heating. Here is the European service for you. We would love to go to Bulgaria more than once with both Mediatour and Doris, but there are many other countries in the world. Keep it up. And no one is safe from the human factor.

Firm Doris flight 215 Kyiv-Sofia, 08.08.2015
1. Everything they tell you when buying tickets is complete nonsense. In reality, the bus goes to Varna, where passengers to Sofia must change to a local regular bus
2. There is no service on the bus. There is no Internet, no tea and coffee, no hot water, and no fresh drinking water either.
3. The bus is old and broken. The first time I broke down in Uman because of which I was late to Odessa for half an hour. The second time there was a breakdown on the Odessa-Reni highway (this is not a highway, but a training ground for tanks) idle for more than 7 hours, and as a result, arrival in Varna was not at 7.00, but at 17.20. The bus to Sofia left at 17.30. And as a result, arrival in Sofia on August 10, 2015 at 02.30 am, although according to the schedule, arrival in Sofia was indicated on August 9, 2015 at 07.00 local.
4. Attitude towards passengers is disgusting. The bus goes from border to border without stops, and these are pieces for 5-6 hours. Drivers and the "stewardess" do not care that people want to go to the toilet or buy water or eat (they were counting on a day's journey, but it turned out to be two days). After several scandals, the "stewardess" gave out a bottle of water (obviously paid for in tickets)

Think a hundred times before contacting the Doris firm.
The Nazis transported prisoners more comfortably than Doris transported passengers.

I will contribute to the reviews from the carrier Doris. The buses are comfortable, I travel not for the first time, BUT: it all depends on who the driver and accompanying person are. There was an impression that the employees are doing a favor, that they are carrying passengers. I understand that work seven days a week, a long journey, sleeping from time to time, working with tired people...but the escorts are recruited on the principle that the more tactless the better..maybe because there are no other options for traveling to Bulgaria?? And they have absolutely no control? I bought a ticket through Chernivtsi (the road is better, fewer borders), so not only was the bus late for an hour, they changed the route (without my knowledge), explaining that you are going to Kyiv anyway .. drivers and accompanying boorish .. in short horror. .Although again I repeat: 3 out of 4 trips we had excellent staff and the trip was a pleasure .. so how lucky))

I went with my wife to Golden Sands, the transportation was carried out by the Doris company, from 01.08 they left on 13.08, everything is clear and the road is difficult and I agree with what was said above that the stops were rare ... on the way back, the drivers changed, but we apparently out of spite, for a long time and got up in a field so that no one could get out, although before that there was a gas station, but this is half the trouble, getting behind the wheel, taking the lives of many people into our own hands, and at the same time we think that we trust life to professionals, these people make such mistakes and rash acts, already 14.08 under Ivano-Frankivsk trudged along for a long time, apparently the nerves could not stand it and our driver stupidly went head-on overtaking with ZIL .... fortunately the truck went to the side of the road ... what kind of comfort can we talk about? Then at the bus stop he approached the guide and asked how so? to which he spread his arms and shrugged. Bus number CH3939AK.

Horror! Instead of the promised 25 hours of travel, we drove 35 hours!!! We ordered tickets from Krivoy Rog to Sunny Beach. Already when landing, we learned that the route was changing and we were going through Zaporozhye. It's a hook at 7 o'clock!!! No apology, no regrets from the carrier and the escort. Accompanying Sergey is generally an unfriendly person. The promised WiFi was not available. There was no toilet. In Zaporozhye, I had to ask to go to the toilet in the city hospital, because we stopped somewhere on the main street and the child could no longer endure it. We were supposed to meet friends. Accordingly, due to being late for 10 hours, they no longer waited for me. There is no Wi-Fi, I just could not contact my friends. Passengers, including me, asked to call the drivers. But the drivers were not allowed to use their phones. In general, the service is ZERO!!! I will post this review on all resources where the name of this carrier will be mentioned. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!
