    Der Ausflug war sehr schöne und ich würde Ihnen auf jeden Fall wieder machen. Wenn der Termin nicht verschoben worden wäre, hätte ich die Buchungsbestätigung einen Tag zu spät erhalten. Vielleicht hat dies aber auch mit der Verschiebung zu tun gehabt. Von Mitreisenden habe ich dann erfahren, das man die Tour auch für 90 Euro incl. Getränke erhalten konnte. Es war zwar von Olbia eine Abholung möglich, aber ich musste trotzdem mit dem Auto fahren, daher finde ich den Preisunterschied nicht gerechtfertigt. Was ist ganz schlecht finde, die TUI App bzw. der Chat, hier bekommt man keine Vernünftige Antwort und kann auch nicht richtig nachfragen. Ein Ansprechpartner Vorort ist hier doch ein großer Vorteil. Meiner Meinung nach wird hier am falschen Punkt gespart.
