Terrible - not recommended

This is just a grab ride. The tour guide didn't give us any info, just drive us around. We started late because the driver didn't get out of the car on arrival and we had no instructions on who was collecting us. We were not told to cover our legs for the temple. He took us to an Indian jewellery shop which was not part of the agenda. Then he took us to the wrong hotel on the way home -as a result, the whole thing took nearly 5 hours vs 3.5 advertised so we were late for our afternoon plans. I would not recommend
