Amazing, number one tour guide
The tour was amazing. We visited not only the main temples, but also other ones that usually are not included. They were very beatiful, with a full mix of history, spirituality and tradition. The guide Padmavathy was very professional and always gave a wonderful personal touch to the experience. She was very supportare also with request outside yhe standard pack. The visit to ghe silk laboratori was also a beatiful and interessino experience.
Definitevely a very raccomanded experience both for the content and fof the high quality of the guide.
