“We are 58 and have taken many tours and we’re on a 6 week tour of Asia. This by far the worst experience we had. I rarely post bad reviews but have to on this occasion. Picked up at hotel circa 5pm and arrived back circa 9pm with circa 3 hours spent on minibus. Golden temple is beautiful albeit very busy. Guide rushed us at both locations directing us to photo spots. Even at temple rushed and missed old lady dance group performance in front of temple. Guide lost 2 ladies so spent 40 mins on coach waiting for guide to locate them. Guide then made personal stop at local…”
