Very informative and helpful - Tour guide was great! She took plenty of pictures of us as a couple. She also went above and beyond the tour by taking us past the bus station several times where we were to catch a bus the next morning. She made us feel comfortable and welcome and provided us with several suggestions of what to do on our own time. Highly recommend.

Price too high - Based on the prices of tour available in same area of thailand, the price is definitely too high. Even considered that the tour is about just 2 temples, price is not justified. Then, guide guy has been very kind and professional; nothing to say about it :)

Do NOT Recommend. - Our guide dropped us off at the two temples. He did not accompany us in or explain anything about the temples. I could have saved a lot of money by taking a taxi and had the same results. There was no other part of the tour except for the two temples. This was NOT a tour of the city. $113 USD wasted.
