Our guide Khan was the best. He is very polite and helpfull. We let it up to him to show us the best places as he recomended, whilst also asking us if we need or want to do something else. He was explaining along the way and provided information about the sites being visited. Highly recomended tour and recomend you ask for Khan on booking. A++++
