We rested at the Festival, but there was an excursion to Armas, where the food is the same, the rooms are worse and killer, the territory is larger and scattered over the locations, which cannot be said about the Festival. From Armas they carry on a truck, from the Festival they go 7 minutes on foot. On the beach for Armas they give french fries, donuts and beer, for the Festival only soft drinks. The price is from $400-900 more expensive for Belarus. By nutrition: red green apples, watermelon, melon, pears, peaches, oranges, burgundy plums. In the evening, french fries, as well as rustic potatoes, pasta, rice. From meat, fish, beef (local meatballs), sausage, chicken, ham. Three types of hard cheese. Cakes, pies, favli, cookies. All greens, herbs, salads. Alcohol: beer, cocktails, Erkki, bolontais and a lot more. They took it from a teztour, compared it with two more tour operators, it turned out to be 400-600 euros cheaper. Of the minuses: the entrance to the sea is a sand with small pebbles, then large ones (you need shoes or swim in slippers).
Regarding the dollar exchange rate, I’ll start with the fact that at the hotel they brought me 23-24 lira per dollar, the guide 25, in the exchanger 24, in the pharmacy they considered 25.5, the most profitable was in De Facto 26.3. They don’t take a hundred, they took the largest $ 50, but for a complete understanding, the store does not change, but only gives the right to pay for the purchase in foreign currency, and give the buyer change in local currency at a favorable rate. And then it’s up to you to decide whether to buy rags at once or break them into three purchases with the supposedly primary currency of $ 50, paid at different cash desks.
We took an excursion from the teztour to Kemer or Kemer 3 D, which includes Mount Olympus, a mosque, a boat trip with swimming and lunch at a fish farm. The price is very good $ 80, provided that the entrance ticket at the box office on the mountain is $ 45, on the street near Ginza or other travel agents, the price is 50-60 but the rise in a jeep or quadric. Mount Olympus is a super object, the scale of investments and the project itself is impressive. Take water with you, lay your ears and a windbreaker there in places it is windy.

In general, I liked the tour, the only negative was lunch at the fish farm, after which I rinsed all night. From edible only rice and pita bread, the rest is not sure. There were four of us, the one who ate pita bread and rice was lucky. The adoption of white coal helped, 4-5 tablets for an adult, it costs 100 lire a jar of 30 tablets.
