Prices for excursions to the Sulak Canyon in Dagestan may increase several times by the summer season. The reason is a sharp reduction in the number of tourist boats.
As Mash has learned, more than 50 watercraft are currently up for sale. According to locals, there are several versions of why this is so. The first is the frequent change of administrations. Everyone has their own requirements for private owners. The second is frequent checks. Entrepreneurs simply don’t pass them. Third – those who have a “roof” survive as private entrepreneurs. Because of this, they are forced to sell everything and think about how to make money differently.
For example: the situation at the Chirkey hydroelectric station. There is almost nothing there, only one or two boats are working. All the others who used to take tourists for rides have sold out their boats and are not showing up at the points. Because of this, the price tag almost quadrupled. According to forecasts, the same thing is expected in the Sulak Canyon in the summer.
