“The trip was not as expected. We did not receive any lunch from the buddhist monks, our driver was not a tour guide he was a driver only. He did not talk unless asked a question. He would drive us to a location and drop us off and we managed from there. The tour did not include any entrance fees so expect to pay at the shrine and the castle. I gave it a four star because we liked the locations. There were six in our group in a very small van. It was a very tight fit for six people so be be sure to request a large van…”
