Why 'from 350 GBP'

What are the options that could make it more expensive?

Brinesley, talk about jumping the gun ! nobody mentioned single person supliments, may i suggest you do some research before shooting off at the mouth.



The price 'from 350GBP' is to do with the time of year and which hotel you choose.



I've seen the leaflet and it looks like excellent value, a chap called Ossie runs it, he is a really nice chap and speaks excellent English.



If you've got any questions just give him a ring, 0533 8406524 its not difficult.

Msg 6

Maybe your reading skills are not what they used to be. My reply was to AJ Msg 3 and in any case all single person supplements are a rip off no matter who the tour operator is. However, £350 sounds very reasonable for the tour described.

You are right it should not be difficult but if the person advertising the service only offers a Russian e-mail address as the only method of contact then everyone has a right to ask questions.

Website? Advertising a service should not be a 'cloak and dagger' exercise. Personally I will not deal with any business that offers such scant information.

Oh by the way I am in the market for a holiday to Turkey as I have promised my wife as a birthday present but I am not willing to spend a lot of time asking questions when the answers could be presented easily via a website.

I am emailing you off board I would hate your wife not to have her birthday present. Even if you just offer her the Istanbul F1!

Dave,



I'm sure there is nothing 'cloak and dagger' about Ossie, give the bloke a chance, give him a call I'm sure he would visit you and give you all the info you want.
