On June 23-27, we went to St. Petersburg in a group. I want to express my deep gratitude to the head of the group Irina Nikolaevna!! Interesting, active, organized everything as well as possible. And I also want to mention the drivers. The guys are virtuosos, they know their job. The company was fun. Everything went well!!

Bus tours have both advantages and disadvantages. Of course, a long bus ride can make your back and legs hurt. But on the other hand, you are taken by bus directly to the place, and there is no need to think about how to get there.Many thanks to TRAVELLAB for the wonderful tour, it's only been a few hours since I got home, but Peter won't let me go, I want to go back.
THANKS to the drivers, you guys are great!!! Also, many thanks to the accompanying ALINA, she nursed us like children so that everyone was in place and not lost;) The hotel where we lived was also of a very decent class, and a shower and a towel and a fan since it was VERY HOT +30 it was very saving.... the staff is very helpful...smiling.HOTEL ON NARVA STREET)👍👍👍👍Next to the dining room you can eat in the evening 🌙 very affordable prices.
About the tour itself.
There is little time to explore St. Petersburg and its suburbs... but this is a beautiful city where you want to return again!!!
Peterhof is a miracle. Everything is pretentious and pompous there. The main attraction is the fountains. They are located in a cascade . There are many mythical sculptures in gilding around. The Peter and Paul Palace stands on top with a view of the cascade of fountains that flow down the river into the Gulf of Finland. Beauty!!!
And of course Karelia ..... The most beautiful place on earth. When lakes, forests and human creations joined together to create this region. Karelia… Just an explosion of emotions!!!!
THANKS AGAIN :*TRAVELLAB;) EVERYTHING WAS VERY BEAUTIFUL AND UNFORGETTABLE

We went to Lviv with the Travel Lab company
The trip left a lot of pleasant impressions for me and my daughter! It was organized by the company very well. Guide Victor surrounded everyone with such care and attention, it was fun, comfortable and exciting. Very interesting excursions around the city. A trip to the Carpathians, local flavor and incredibly beautiful autumn nature. I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel where we were settled, clean, modern. Its location is not in the center, but we used the services of bolt, the local ubera, without any problems, it was inexpensive at all). I highly recommend this company for a trip to Lviv, a great vacation and great impressions of the city itself are guaranteed!

I have repeatedly been a client and used the services of this agency, everything was not bad (trips around the Republic of Belarus). At the moment, I am disappointed with the work of the managers and the organization of the tour. The tour was selected and paid for: Ciao, Italy Tour: Bonfesto dairy plant, quarries (20.08), after talking with the manager (15.08), I found out that there are 2 vacant places. The manager asked to make full payment, without fail, by Wednesday (17.08). Clearly realizing that the group was not being recruited. The tour was paid remotely, the full cost, a single payment, the bank + charged me a commission for the transfer (105p 50 kopecks. We were waiting for the tour, on Friday, around 12 p.m., I wrote to the manager to find out about the details of the departure. It was only after my message that the manager called me back and said that the tour would not take place. As a result: writing an application for a refund (and this is the time)+ I received not 105 rubles on the card, but 100, the bank also charged me 5 rubles for a refund. I do not understand why the client suffers in this situation and loses his time, albeit small, but money, which is also unpleasant. I'm not talking about ruined plans for the weekend, the tc tour was very much awaited. Advice to the management: how can you take 100% payment, realizing that the group is not recruited, if you return the money to the client, I think that the commission for the refund should be at your expense. They offered 20p for the next tours, after she said that a negative review would be left. I do not recommend this agency, I am disappointed with this approach to clients.

We went with Travel Lab to St. Petersburg on 06/16/2022, before that to Lviv in 2018. Coincidentally, Maxim turned out to be the escort again, correct, always coming to the rescue, and very attentive. The program of the trip is sooo intense, I would not have had time to see half of it on my own in St. Petersburg. From one excursion they moved by bus immediately to the next, those who did not want to go on any of the excursions could use their free time at their discretion (the time and place of meeting with the main group was always mentioned repeatedly to continue the journey). The hotel On Turbinnaya is very good for tourist groups where it only makes sense to spend the night, the bed linen is snow-white, the mattresses in the beds are comfortable, the shower in the room is combined with a toilet with normal plumbing. There are generally equipped kitchens, a stove, several refrigerators, a microwave oven, tables, glasses, tea/sugar, napkins. Quick check-in/check-out. Not far from the hotel there is a very good and sooo budget dining room (22 Promyshlennaya str. "Your dining room"), 2-storey, with a choice of food even in the evening (in the morning the choice is decent). After 20.00, there is a 40% discount on everything, so you can eat for a mere penny. As for the drivers, I can say one thing - professionals! The quality of the roads is not the best, some roads are blocked for repairs, but with such drivers we did not need to worry about anything. As for excursions, you definitely need to visit Peterhof, drive around St. Petersburg with a guide, swim through the canals. To see the bridges (you can do it yourself, but then the problem is to get to the hotel, because the action begins at 1.10 am (and this is the very first bridge in time - the Palace)). On the second day, instead of Karelia (we could not physically go 270 km to Karelia after a night tour at 7.00), we went on our own to Tsarskoye Selo, visited the Catherine Palace (be sure to visit if you get there, it is unrealistically beautiful inside) and Catherine Park. It is better to buy tickets online through the official website of the museum (you will not have to stand in an hour-long queue), we also printed them out for free at the hotel (then you need to attach the barcode of the ticket at the entrance). We visited the aquarium on our own on the same day. You definitely need to watch the shark feeding show (every day at 19.00, but it's better to check the schedule on the website). Huge sharks, a bunch of rubes and a beautiful stingray named Princess. Even the adults liked it. We found out how and where to get by transport through forums on the Internet, I do not write, since transport routes have been changing a lot since July 15. As for the tour of the roofs, if someone is very afraid of heights, it is better to stay below. At first, I was also overcome with fear, I did not think that roofs without railings (the scariest part is just as soon as you get on the roof and a person does not have time to get used to the height, but already you have to walk along the edge of the roof). To pay tribute, the organizing guys help to pass the most terrible sections. But then, after walking for a couple of minutes, you get to the roof with a large railing. The photos and the view are amazing. It's absolutely not scary to go back. Well, in the end, I want to say a big thank you to Travel Lab for the tour and separately to Maxim. Next time we will go to Moscow with you)). P. S. It is better to choose seats on the bus yourself with an additional payment, so that later there would be no conflict situations that were planted in the wrong place and with the wrong one (after all, the road is long and the bus turns into a family home for days of excursions).

Good afternoon! I want to write a review about the most terrible excursion in my life! Starting from the very first day, everything went wrong. The program and excursions did not correspond to those indicated earlier in the program, the escorts immediately began to get out in different ways. The driver talked on the phone without a headset for an hour of the trip, then just sat at the wheel on the phone, although several times he almost crashed into a car in front of him. They didn't warn about the border in advance, and they didn't have time to turn on roaming. The next day was just hellish! We were dropped off for breakfast 5 blocks away because the driver could never find the right road and park anywhere during the whole trip. After breakfast, we were dragged for 6 hours on a walking tour, although the program stated something else. Alexey's guide was not heard, he does not know how to form his thoughts, for the most part the sounds of aaaaaaa, eeeee and interjections were heard. During the 6 hours of this hellish excursion, it was impossible to go to the toilet, buy water or have a snack. When Angelina and Alina addressed their escorts, they heard in response: - Well, wait, we'll go soon, I also walk a lot and sleep a little!!! We were brought to the hotel 3 hours later than expected, but problems with check-in began there, and when tired, burned out, sleepless people began to protest, our escorts told us: - Get out of here and be quiet! In short, the whole trip is in this spirit- rudeness, disorganization, not knowing your job! There was an answer to every question: - Wait, I'll Google it now. You can write the rest of the days, but the situation is the same there. I really want the administration of this company to review its employees for professional suitability. And I will not advise anyone to go with them, of course, it's just a disgusting vacation and terrible memories of Moscow.

A trip to St. Petersburg was planned from 18.08 to 22.08. Departure at 19.00, but then postponed to 21.00. In the new time, the bus did not come either. Our escort was ALINA, who knows nothing, was rude. There was no answer to the basic questions. "What time will the bus arrive?" - "Soon"
" How long to cross the border, about an hour?"- "We will pass the border in 3 minutes"
"How long to go?" - " We 'll make it everywhere, 8 o'clock. " Moreover, it takes 10 hours and 23 minutes by car.
The bus arrived at 23.46p
.m. They tried to fix the situation with champagne and juice. When leaving, even at such a time, they promised to arrive at 9 a.m., although this is UNREALISTIC. The trip was refused, but Alina delayed us while looking for an excuse.

I took courses for accompanying tour groups at this travel agency. I would like to note that they do not have a license to conduct educational activities. At the conclusion of the contract, they say that they need people to accompany groups, but they cannot take them without taking courses. They promise that classes will be held in small groups, and everyone will be sent for an internship. They say that those who will not be hired, other firms really like to hire. What is the fact?! There were 14 people in our group. Yes, the training is interesting, but it cost 270 rubles, for many it is a lot of money, and this is without the cost of an internship. After that, they offer to do an internship (the cost of the tour is minus 20-40 dollars). They promise that the best will be hired, and others will be helped to get jobs in other companies. IN FACT, THEY DO NOT HIRE ANYONE and do not help anyone in any way. Even for an internship, not everyone went, "everyone is fed lunch.". It's just pulling money and completely cheating. Stay away from them!!! We talked to people from different streams and everyone has the same situation...

Trip to St. Petersburg (18.08-22.08).The accompanying ALINA does not know anything, she cannot communicate and answer basic questions. The departure was delayed for 5 HOURS. But it's not just like that, Alina justified it by saying "that we just WON'T WAIT AT THE BORDER, WE'LL DO EVERYTHING IN THREE MINUTES." And the road to St. Petersburg itself takes 8 hours , according to her . The tour was abandoned, but Alina also made a problem out of it.

After reading the reviews, I realized that it is useless to contact you, but I really want other tourists not to contact this travel agency. There was a very bad opinion about the escort, her name was Anna, the drivers didn't care about people either. When we went to Tustan, they did not take people to the parking lot, but dropped them off far away and we had to walk, although other buses took their people to the parking lot. Anna also does not have information, she does not know that the Aquarius hotel can be reached by bus No. 8, the answer is one, when asked, taxi. We searched for everything ourselves, asked people, although the maintainer should know this. But most of all I was offended by the attitude, I have problems with my legs, I went up to Anna and politely asked her to put me in front, two seats were free, she told me that these were the drivers' seats, but no one was sitting in either direction. I did not approach her again, but the unpleasant aftertaste remained. We left Lviv at 16.00, although according to the program of the trip we left at 18.00, in fact, 2 hours were stolen from us. And this is all in order to get across the border faster. And why? We arrived in Minsk at 4 a.m., where can we go, many from other regions. But when they asked to take us to the railway station, they categorically refused us, and even laughed that they would take you home. That's the attitude towards people. Other travel agencies drove their tourists to the train station, I know for sure, a friend went at the same time from another travel agency. I would really like the management to read and draw conclusions, but personally I will never contact the TRAVELAB company again. Maybe people will read my review and draw conclusions.

This is not an agency— it's just a misunderstanding! Deception is everywhere! Don't get fooled!
In order: we decided to use the services of this company and combine business with pleasure — a vaccine and a tour to Lviv. As a result, there WAS no vaccine or tour, AND WE FOUND OUT ABOUT IT AT THE VERY LAST MOMENT AND ACCIDENTALLY FROM A CHAT ON VIBER FOR TOURISTS!
At the company's office, they told us, "Sorry, the vaccine was not delivered." As we learned later: there is no concept of "delivered" in Ukrainian clinics - the manager just "forgot" to register us. The trip itself also turned out to be terrible - a drunken escort, a shabby Hotel-flophouse 9km from the city.
We intend to write a letter of claim and return the funds according to the law.

We ordered air tours to Turkey through a travel agency. The cost of the tour was average (there were both cheaper and more expensive options, besides it was the end of September, the end of the season). The surprises started from the very beginning. For an additional fee, we were offered to book a window seat on the plane, we agreed - as a result, it was just the row where there was no window. Well, okay, it doesn't happen to anyone, they didn't pay attention, the manager didn't look by chance.
Further more interesting: when ordering, we definitely asked for a double bed, as a result, we check in tired at 12 at night - the room is just a terrible level (for comparison, we used to be in many budget hotels, we did not see this), and the room has 2 single beds with creaking mattresses. At the reception we are trying to interrogate the replacement, to which the Turk replies that the hotel is full, there is nothing, come tomorrow. We write to the manager, she calmly writes that this happens, just give them money (we paid for the tour, and give them more money!) and they will change it, calm down and go to bed, if it doesn't work out, the hotel guide will come tomorrow at the appointed time and decide everything.
In the morning we are trying to get a replacement again, there is already a girl at the reception who does not speak much Russian or English and also claims that there is nothing.
The hotel guide was 1.5 hours late for the meeting! We came on vacation and instead of going to the sea, we spent half a day trying to resolve issues, find a contact for the hotel guide (the manager from travel lab and from tez tour (travel lab buys tours from teztur) do not know his number, no one knows at the reception either, after an hour and a half somehow found his number, the man calmly came to the meeting and said that he was "a little late"). Thank you for changing the room (at the same time for a double bed for two, one 90 cm wide bedspread, a balcony that does not close, i.e. running around with solving problems again)
We intend to change the hotel, the manager from the travel lab says that 1-2 free replacement options are possible and the rest are for an additional fee.the fee.
We were ready to pay extra to change, because our "all inclusive" breakfast was also pleased with pasta (!), 1 type of boiled sausage, 1 type of cheese, we did not see anything from bread except a loaf (there were no desserts, pastries or at least something else during the week).
The manager from the Travelab says that this is normal, in Turkey all breakfasts are like this. (which doesn't seem to be the truth, we were at the same time in another hotel with a chic table, the hotel is inexpensive)
As a result, the hotel guide says: "I won't offer you anything to replace it, otherwise you won't like it either, but you can tell me the options yourself, I'll specify the cost of the shift." We spend about an hour searching (he dismisses most of the hotels at an affordable price, because they "do not cooperate" with them (= do not get a kickback). For the rest, he promises to give an answer soon, but you may have to pay extra. We are ready to hear the figure, see a new hotel and move for payment.
A few days have passed, we are waiting for an offer, to which we receive an answer: "This will not work, we must go right away, they will tell you the number and check in." In short, another "cat in a poke". We have already had enough of the company's service, we just spat and booked a room ourselves at a cost of 20 euros per day, which was better than ours, i.e. we can only guess how much ours cost.
During the entire stay, we walked around the city and found very interesting hotel options at affordable prices, the conclusion is to double-check the hotel before booking. Due to our inexperience, we did not look at the fact that there are dozens of hotels with this name in our city and thought the wrong one.
But this does not negate the fact that a travel agency should not offer such terrible options to its customers, we sincerely wish them all such a "wonderful holiday".
Due to the fact that we changed the hotel and had an independent rich recreation program, everything turned out well, but it required additional costs and nerves
PS the guide in Turkey also offers its own travel options to neighboring cities (much more expensive than booking on the spot or via the Internet from other companies), claiming that other options are of poor quality, but we still booked a trip to another city much cheaper and there are no complaints at all in terms of the bus and the quality of the hotel.

It all started out great. Firstly, the guide Daria Ilyinich knows the material superficially. There is no presentation of the material, it is monotonous and you start to fall asleep, you can cut the story short. There is nothing in her story that is not on the Internet. Very few people visited the museum: only 45 minutes. And the museum guide generally said that she had the end of the working day, she was tired and in general the story would be as brief as possible. The old castle was not visited as it was closed. After the museum in the rain, the guide decided to take an excursion to the market square. Half of the people went to the bus, and someone else went to the cafe. Due to the carelessness of the guide, we left at 7, but we should have left at 6, as prescribed in the contract. In Minsk, according to the agreement, we were supposed to be at the gathering place at 22.00. I expected to catch the train at 23.02. I asked the guide to drop us off at the Bus Station and the manager was also aware. BUT the driver Igor had to leave for Moscow. The guide and the driver aggressively informed them that these are your problems. As a result, we were thrown out with a small child half an hour before the train to the stop and told to wait for 44 trolleybuses. In Vitebsk, the schedule works differently. I had to call a taxi. The roof of the bus itself was leaking and the air conditioner was leaking.
Of the advantages: I liked the route very much. I will visit on my own again. The lunch was great.

I rarely write reviews and never negative ones. But Travel Lab deserves it. I went on a tour to the Braslav Lakes. I'll start with a funny one, they forgot about me. In the evening before departure, I had to write to them and specify where, when and at what time the departure was. A large bus for 50 people. I was a little surprised by the attitude towards those who travel alone - "do not take up space on the bus until those who travel in companies sit down, in a cafe for lunch as well - first wait until the companies sit down, then those who are in pairs. And then...you can already sit down where the place remains. It's nice, you can't say anything. It's just a great opportunity to feel like a second-class person. Then it's more fun. For the same price, you can be accommodated in a good recreation center in a pine forest in a double room with a balcony. Or they can go to a roadside motel in a block for four and with a beautiful view of the highway. Moreover, in order to settle into this miracle, we marinated for an extra hour on the bus, because first we transported everyone else. To the logical question of why we were not settled first when we were in the city (and the hotel is located in the city), we were given the answer that otherwise we would not have settled and demanded other accommodation. As it is, we have no way out. And this is a well-established practice, because there have been precedents before. There are no balconies in the hotel, there is nowhere to dry things after the beach, there are no breakfasts or lunches or an elementary stall to buy water. The rooms are old and battered by life. The rest was considered spoiled by all 10 people who were so "lucky", and certainly none of us will go with the Travel Lab anymore.
Of the good ones are the lakes themselves and the guide Stepan, who tells an interesting story.
One of the bad things is the agency itself, which clearly saves on tourist accommodation and lies when talking on the phone about the terms of the tour. Including the availability of seats

From 13 to 17.06.19, Lviv-Carpathians bus tour(O.Synevir). My personal opinion is that it is better to organize trips yourself, and these tours are just all "holop across Europe"))) It seemed that the tour was more about moving, sanitary stops, meals, waiting for the group.
A huge minus for Travel is that a 2-storey bus was brought. In general, it's time for many companies to start working with normal carriers, otherwise the old buses are inconvenient, the air conditioners are sad, there is no wifi, do not recharge the phone, aaaah- 21 century!!!
There are no complaints about hotels, well, in Lviv the hotel "Palma" is far from the center, in the industrial zone ((( and there are rooms up to repairs, there is no ice in them, there is no air conditioning.
Also, in Transcarpathia, there is little time to look at the waterfall, bears, mountains. Although the afternoon and evening of the day are almost all free.
So everything goes according to the program as they write on the websites. They don't warn you yet that about.Synevir won't take you anywhere!!!!! of course, you can walk up to it about 1km. (despite the fact that you are given only 40 minutes to walk there), well, prepare 50-60 hryvnia and you will be taken. In Gemba, too, the lift will not arrive at the peak, if you want to pay higher for the car separately)
In general, do not wait for this money, just wow)
Thanks separately to the guides and escorts, the guys are trying, they give positive emotions!

We went to Lviv with this travel agency.
We were not warned that we would stop in Novogrudok, and this is a decent detour, as a result, on Saturday in Lviv we were closer to lunch and missed the morning of the excursion, the whole trip turned into a chase. It was raining and the bus was leaking... On the way back, of course, people were taken back to Novogrudok, at work on Monday they had to take it at their own expense, because they did not arrive 6-8 in the morning, but closer to lunch (((( there was a sediment. Another time we went with another travel agency and were very satisfied!!!

Having found a good option on Instagram, I ordered a ticket for October 26, an older woman gave me the documents in the office and I waited for the day of departure.We arrived with my wife, the freight forwarder Philip was waiting for us.We drove off, he introduced himself, began a tedious conversation with elements of stretching rubber in the form of:Eeeeeee, mmmmm, aaaaaaa, hmm.In general, simply put, it is clear that a person is a beginner, but it turned out that he has been driving for not the first month, but for a year for sure.We went to Lviv, turned on the stove, it's not cold on the bus, maybe it's cold at the bottom, but according to the law of physics, all this heat goes to the second floor of the bus and it's hot there.At the request, they turned it off, not immediately, but they turned it off.I note that Philip may be a great person with family and friends, but as a freight forwarder he is a complete jerk, he is terribly stupid, does not know how to conduct a conversation at all and infuriates with his communication.We know his name, but every time he turned on the microphone during the whole trip, he said:Hello everyone, my name is Philip, I am your freight forwarder.
Why repeat the same thing?)Okay, let's skip the idiocy.We drove back, turned on the stove and did not turn it off, asked to turn it off, zero reaction.From this heat, I began to sweat, during the entire ride, you know, sweat flows like a river, the button of jeans began to oxidize, this oxidation tore my skin to an ulcer (I got a chemical burn), I suffered for a week until the blood appeared.I arrived in Minsk at 9.30, being late for work, the management slapped a fine of 200 rubles on me.Although part of the bus asked to leave early, with the hope of arriving earlier, to which Philip replied that it made no difference whether to sit here or at the border.One citizen may not even have gone on a business trip.I think this behavior is wrong and wildly rude, the employee should at least be with his head.
The photo has already healed the place, but it is clear that there was a wound.We talked with the owner of the organization, naturally apologized, but then wrote that being late was not their fault, they were not to blame for the fact that I received such a chemical burn and advised me to change clothes (apparently so that there would be no such incidents)
Try to convince me of this opinion that you deserve a better opinion.Considering the factor that only those who do nothing are not mistaken.Strive to move forward but looking back, remembering past mistakes.

Great tour company! We went with them to Lviv in March and in August we will go to the sea) pleasant terms of payment for the tour, they can arrange a tour without arriving at the office. I ordered a tour from Gomel for two people.

I really enjoyed the tour to Lviv! I definitely wouldn't have had time to see and try so many things myself, I was especially impressed with the sealed cava! Well done travellab for coming up with such a tour! Hurray!

The disgusting work of the managers of the company and the organization as a whole!
Today at 10 a.m. I called the phone number listed on the website, asked about the availability of places for a Tour to Lviv on 06.05. The girl manager replied that there are 5 places available. I was asked to book 2 places, in turn, the girl wrote down our full name and phone number and said be sure to come with two codes before 19:00 today and redeem the reservation. My wife took time off from work and was at the company's office at 16:00, but when she wanted to redeem the reservation, she was told that there were no seats available, that a group of people came and actually bought seats. When asked how it could have happened in general, they only answered "they say they don't always come for reservations" and didn't even apologize. Explain then what is the point of booking at all if you, in fact, do not keep a seat. And isn't it possible to call and ask about your intentions to go if people have come?
