Experience to do, not with this platform.

Driver was very nice and punctual, the problems came later. The guide who gave us the tour of the temple practically didn't make an effort to explain anything; he told us one minute of history and showed us the statues without going into any cultural aspects at all. He was probably doing this job for the first time. After the visit, we went to eat at a place recommended by the driver along with 10,000 other tourists, it was good. In the meantime, neither the driver nor the association informed me that the ticket I had been promised was no longer available and that I therefore had to settle for another one. Side view where I couldn't even read the screen on the side of the stage to understand what was happening in the scenes. Management by the company was terrible, unprofessional, and superficial; I wrote to them to find out why they hadn't written to me directly about the ticket issue, and they mumbled random excuses. I recommend the experience itself, which is very beautiful; rely on other platforms, not this one.

So glad we booked this!

This was such a beautiful experience. I went with my 2 kids, we did the afternoon tour and it worked out really well as the heat had cooled down, we got to see the sunset and explore the outdoors comfortably. The driver Himawan and the guide were awesome! super helpful and friendly and took care of us. The Ramayan ballet was out of this world! definitely a must see!
