An enjoyable trip

A really great experience. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we were chauffeured around in a very comfortable air conditioned vehicle. They couldn’t do enough for us and ensured that we were comfortable and had enough time in each stop off.

Skip it, not worth it

Basically drove us around the southern part of island with a few stops. Guide seemed uninterested and was on her phone for the most part. Driver was very kind and tried hard to interact with us even given limited English. Not sure what the purpose of guide was

Relaxing time

This was an excellent tour, I hope the big Buddha can open again soon. The remainder of the tour was very good
