    We enjoyed every moment with Thang. He is knowledgeable, sincere, and very friendly. He built a strong connection from the start, and made us feel very comfortable throughout the walk. The bus ride was a good experience, very clean and comfortable. The temples and market places were unique experiences. We totally enjoyed the stories and history told by Thang.
