    The group was too big Instead of promised 25 people, we had 44 people
    Wingbuddy commented on this review
    Thank you for your feedback Natalya. We’re sorry to hear about the larger group size compared to what was initially promised. To accommodate the increased number of participants, we had to split the tour into two buses. We understand that a smaller... Show more

    It was truly a disappointment to have learned that a tour which promised 25 person max, actually consisted of 43 people. That many people was extremely hard to navigate, a lot of extra time spent on gathering and explaining, which caused delays. The age group our young group was placed with was completely different, they could have done better there. Our guide and driver were amazing and truly were the reason that there are more stars than wing buddy deserved. Only 1 properly rated hotel was given to us, the rest were below 3 stars. Food was mediocre, will never use nor recommend wing buddy again!

    Sera and Meta (the guide and bus driver) were excellent. I found the staff at the Nidya Hotel (Istanbul) to be particularly helpful.

    The guide we had was the very best for knowledge and kindness. The driver we had went above and beyond to help me. The translator that was supplied for the quebecois was very helpful even for the English speaking people on the tour. It was the best holiday of my life. There was only one thing that was beyond everyone's control and that was the wind stopped us from going on the balloon ride. Will have to find a way to do that another time. Thank you for the very best your that you supplied.

    The tour was excellent and part of it was the fact our group was only four persons. The tour guide and driver were amazing, very professional, very knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant. The whole tour was very casual and interactions with our guide were more conversational and very interactive. We were very impressed with Wingbuddy and how they allowed us to customize our trip and even make changes after we departed. We will definitely do this again.

    As this was our 1st tour ever with a guide, contrary to my beliefs from the past, we were pleasantly surprised by many things: the small group (only 4 cpls +guide+driver), guide's (Serap) knowledge, sincerity, willingness to go extra mile (wife & I are vegetarians & Serap made sure that other than buffets, she arranged with the kitchens to have them prepare veggie meals), sociable, and an excellent sense of humor. The driver (Bekir) was also very helpful, prompt, sociable and overall very sincere. (To the point that we all exchanged our whatsapp# to stay in touch and we admired them both for their qualities). We would definitely look forward to taking tours with Wingbuddy & recommend to others. Thank you for a memorable tour. ....Jatin & Daksha Jadav.
