David our tour guide was very informative answered all questions would give him 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. He took us to the main sites explaining in detail what went on during those early times. Me personally I would have liked to have explored other areas of the park kinda like off the beaten path looking for different animals and plant species. But all was good.

Our tour guide was very informative. The tour bus was comfortable and the drive went by quickly. Bring extra water, the water provided is in small bottles and the weather is warm and humid and there is lots of walking involved. Towards the end of our tour we were required to climb one of the ruins to get to the top and see the rest of the site. Many had to stay behind, although I have vision issues I was physically able to climb up and down with help. Others though had to stay behind. I feel they really missed out. There is little to no areas to sit and take a break, many were competing for the 2 small benches at the bottom while they waited. This was not the guides fault it is just a lot more active and strenuous then is noted in the description. So if you have mobility issues prepare to only see part of this fantastic site. We enjoyed these ruins, I have been to other major sites and this was refreshing and new. They are tirelessly working to uncover more at this location and its interesting to see their progress.
