You only need to show the QR code upon arrival, very convenient. I would recommend to book the ticket as soon as possible as it is a popular tourist attraction. I would also recommend to queue at least half an hour before the time you booked as it is very crowded.

I was very satisfied. The driver was attentive, explained carefully, and tried his best to take me to see things that were not on the itinerary. I was not feeling well and he ended the trip to accompany me to the emergency room and took me home. He was very empathetic and a very kind person. The lady who contacted me was also very attentive and responsible. Very satisfied
