Great Sites And Great Tour Guide

This was a very interesting tour and the sights were amazing. The walking was easy and at the final stop there was over 100 stairs up to the tomb, and even with a sprained ankle they were doable! Our driver was talented. Maneuvering the twist and turns of the mountain pass in the narrow streets helps fire. Our guide, Hang, was so informative on the history and the lifestyle of the emperors. It was a treat to spend the day with her.
