I booked a private tour, while I wanted to keep the day flexible, and it was worth of the money.The temple area was amazing, even I had been there before, it was nice to have an excellent guide to tell the history and make sure, that I saw all top places. The natural park was also worth of seeing...
I booked a private tour, while I wanted to keep the day flexible, and it was worth of the money.The temple area was amazing, even I had been there before, it was nice to have an excellent guide to tell the history and make sure, that I saw all top places. The natural park was also worth of seeing: the views / waterfalls at the part were beautiful and breath taking. This combined tour is recommended if you have limited time, and want to see both. The guide I has was very professional and I really enjoyed of the day, even though it was a long day.
