Whole day of fun - hike at the end isn't for the faint hearted - This was such a fun tour! The first leg was insightful and the pagoda/temple was gorgeous. Our tour guide Max was very knowledgeable and funny, so he made the trip pretty enjoyable. The boat ride was so much fun, I may have gotten too competitive and dropped my sunnies in the lake but it was worth it hahaa, you dont need to paddle, its optional. Then the sights from the hike and pond was gorgeous!! The hike was very steep, but I completed it fine with crocs!! 5/5 stars - would recommend
