I enjoyed the close proximity of the sites. In particular, I was very impressed with the story behind the Buddha with 11 heads. My guide Mike was so friendly and his knowledge of the area was excellent By the end of the day I just needed to rest and Mike showed me to a traditional restaurant for lunch. His recommendation was excellent. Mike went beyond just the tour. He knew I was exploring a little on my own the next day and heade sure that I knew how to navigate the busy rail system.

The activity was superb! Our guide John was very knowledgeable, relaxed and pleasant, and contributed highly for us to experience a wonderful day. We visited many sites on a day and even though it involved a lot of walking we saw beautiful top sites or must sees and got a chance to really embrace the culture. Highly recommendable!
