We had a great time and Teri was an excellent guide. She is a wealth of knowledge and explained the history and many stories behind what we saw. Highly recommend it.

Our tour guide, Janiel, was fabulous! Extremely knowledgeable and full of energy! The bamboo grove was very impressive. Lots of beautifully manicured grounds at various temples and shrines. Good exercise to climb the steps to the monkey retreat. There we saw monkeys and some babies free roaming with the tourists. Nice panoramic view of the city below.
