Incredible, no-nonsense tour - Highly recommend - Incredible tour: The locations visited were incredible and well worth a visit. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable, giving us interesting history behind Myra and the St Nicholas Church. The journey was long but comfortable overall. No-nonsense tour with no forced stops at tourist trap shops on the way which is common with other tours - this was fantastic and meant no time was wasted on the way.
