Pamukkale Turizm Antalya Istanbul Europe recent customer reviews
Сиденья раскладываются недостаточно. Каждые два часа ночью автобус делает остановку, включают свет и водитель кричит сколько остановка. Зачем это ночью? Пусть выходят те, кому нужно. Зачем включать свет и будить каждые два часа?

Driver Cetin Cakmak did not want to allow me on the bus, screamed at me in front of all the passengers, made me cry, and ruined my whole trip. Never ever in my life have I had a man yelling at me like that. Unbelievable and very upsetting. Shame on Pamukkale customer service.
