Reviews
The guide was a nice older man however he didn’t share any historical facts about any places. Did not have a microphone so no one could hear anything for the most part about time meet up. The temples were amazing, especially the blue ones. Lunch was good. They provided plenty of waters. The van was a little outdated and the AC wasn’t blowing hard enough. I think adding a history lesson while we drive and using a microphone would be a positive and appreciated addition.
unique experience, monumental building. professional guide, comfortable van
