Review for: Premium Bus Tour

Not a bad experience, to understand more about historical cavings and history. But due to golden week, the crowd can be massive. But overall good experience with guide briefing and giving us some information. But will be better if she could speak or gives more sharing session while we are in the bus. As outdoor sharing can be quite tough due to external factors. No sharing session while on the river cruise
