Replan the timing of the stops
Thirumalai P,Apr 23, 2026

3.00I am giving a lower rating because of the planning. We finished the tour at 10 pm! This is primarily due to spending more time in places that did not require so much time. I suggest that they can easily cut 30 minutes in the lunch stop and a further 30 minutes in the tombs and a further 30 minutes in the stop after the tombs. Reaching at 10 pm means it is very difficult to find dinner. Jake did a great job but the tour became very long … more than necessary

5.00Great Day of beautiful and historical sites guided by Jake. Palaces, burial chambers, bridges and an historical village. Jake was knowledgeable and courteous and was happy to answer any questions. Opportunity for a delicious lunch and some street food. Learned a lot on this enjoyable tour. Wear comfy shoes.

5.00It’s a very long day due to distance travelled and so many sights so it’s imperative to be on time for pickup at each destination. The sights are truly spectacular but be prepared for the crowds who also want to enjoy them. We had an excellent guide in Song who was friendly and knowledgeable.
