“This is a great tour. Just know that the pick up and drop offs are a process. They are a time consuming and also the trip is about a two hour drive. But it was all worth it when you get there. The caves was probably our best part. We were also shown some very interesting things in the city itself. Our guide , Johnie Walker was great, also included a buffet lunch all in all a long day but well worth it. Highly recommend.”
