Great tour with Trip Guru

We had a wonderful tour with Ohm from Trip Guru as our guide. He spoke good English, was very knowledgeable of the places we visited and was very accomodating as we were a family with elderly and children both. Ohm was great and gave us good tips also and guided us around safely. Highly recommend.
