The tour guide spoke good English. The tour was a good mix of being guided and being able to explore for ourselves. The guide was always available and could answer all questions.

    I had to get a taxi to go back earlier as I had flight and the tour was going to take longer due to the accident. Disappointing that no one told us before. Especially that I booked this tour bc it was coming early 2:30pm. I was not the only one there was also another couple in the same situation so we miss 2/3 or the tour and left right after the floating market
