1.00DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR VIA 3rd party!!!! Book directly with the tour guide and DO NOT book the tour with the “live guide” (about $48 US per person) because it doesn’t include the hop on-off benefit AND you’ll pay less on the tour operator website. You are stuck on the bus for 2 hours with the driver you’ve got. No on-off privileges. Our guide (and older gentleman) spoke SO fast, mixing in English humor and sarcasm within such a thick accent that we couldn’t understand the majority of what he said. What we could understand, we couldn’t tell if he was joking or serious. It was terrible. Please go straight to the tour operator website or buy from the vendor reps on the street - they are everywhere. This was a complete waste of time and we will now have to buy the hop-on/hop-off tickets anyway. Our party of 4 was $193 US and it was a complete waste of time and money.
