We loved it! Moon was an excellent guide. Skipping the long queue was very convient. Make sure to TELL the staff you are going on this tour. We showed them the voucher and they didn't even read it and told us to queue. Luckily, it all went smoothly after collecting the ticket - they rushed us straight to the cable car. Keep the sticker they give you as it allows you to skip the queue on the way back as well. (It doesn't stick well to clothes, so be careful not to lose it.)

our guide Moon was incredible. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was fun and definitely worth the money especially since you get prpriority entrance to the cable cats. the regular lines were really long the day went so it saves you a lot of time. Also, exploring the village with a gguide really helps reduce the stress of trying to figure out where to go.
