It is about average as far as a tour . Museum is questionable? The tour is what it is. The lunch was good and the boat ride was?

Misa was a great guide. She was welcoming, had great information and energy and was funny as well. A very gracious host. The Bahn Mi on the boat was delicious and we had a rainbow in the distance to top it off. Transportation was top notch, clean and modern.

We did this tour last minute and were very impressed with the service and food and our guide Thuy she new alot about history and was very accomplished..the lunch we had was awesome.. Cheers

Way to rushed!

William_G, May 2023

The tour guide was very nice despite a difficult job of keeping everyone going and together! But…. This was because the tour group was way to big (17 people) not a small tour as advertised. We also got told that it wasn’t worth seeing some of the buildings as they had been restored. Which I thought was bizarre, luckily I could go off on my own and got to see them, lots of the group could not. Annoyingly rushed at points as this is once in a lifetime that you’re likely to go I would recommend a slower tour if you would like to see things at your own pace.

Small tour group

This small group tour was very interesting. A very impressive ancient site. Our guide was very informative and conscious of the needs of our small group of elderly tourists when the heat became overwhelming. The lunch, at a small family restaurant, was excellent and the boat trip back provided a relief from the heat.
