The boat trip through the canyon itself is impressive. The views are amazing. Be sure to take warm clothes! A strong cold wind blows in places. First, everyone occupied the upper deck, and then went down to the closed lower deck. Immediately, everyone wanted hot coffee, as it were. 3 in 1 from a sachet.
After visiting the canyon, the trip program includes a visit to the lower lake - Manavnat reservoir. In 2 hours they promise to feed lunch, take a boat ride with a swim. In fact, there is no boat, no one dared to swim from the pontoon among the fishing rods. And those who wanted to go fishing broke their gear. Half-hour lunch and 1.5 hours waiting for departure to the hotel.
5 stars only for the Green Canyon itself. I will leave the rest without evaluation. Maybe others will have better luck.
Great tour. The eyes rejoice in the colors from the blue water, the mountains strewn with coniferous trees. They say the water is cold there, but it is very pleasant for us as residents of central Russia. At first, we were given a little test ride on a boat, we stopped to swim and fish (hold a fishing rod) for an hour to catch something substantial, it's ridiculous to count. There are fish there, but they don't want to bite because of the splashing and diving. After we were taken to eat. You will all be given tokens on the ship, which it is better not to lose, for them you will be given either a piece of meat or fish or chicken in a restaurant.
After lunch, we sailed for a long time along the canyon admiring the rocks and forests. We saw mountain goats, flamingos, loons, and eagles. We stopped to swim at the pirate ship again. On the way back, you will be offered to redeem your photos. Bargain boldly. It is more profitable for them to get at least something from you than to waste the spent materials. I was offered a set of photos and 2 plate frames for an initial price of $ 84, I bargained up to 30.
It is a very picturesque place. The road to konen fascinates with its views and serpentines. From above, near the dam, you will find a beautiful view and gorgeous mountains. There is a parking lot for transport. Mini market with souvenirs and snacks. At the bottom of the canyon there is a developed infrastructure with restaurants, cafes and walks by water transport.
