Enjoyable. The drive along the coast is very nice. The Temple is nice to see, though not much else is there. The views are very nice.

I enjoyed the tour, really great views from the bus and the guide was keeping us busy sharing information about sights. I liked the poetry she read. It was an afternoon trip so when we got to the temple, the sun was on the other side already, so we had to take pics against the sun - not great pics. So maybe it'd be better to have the tour in the morning. Quite long drive to get there.

The bus ride along the coast was great, but the actual site visited was fairly average.

The guide was terrible. She kept us standing in the searing heat while she droned on and on in three languages. Would have been kind if she had done this in the air conditioned coach before we got there! The trip was very rushed and the down side about all the excursions is that after being collected from your hotel, you then have to sit in the Chat office located in the hotel which they own, for over half an hour. It would have been better to get a later collection time instead of wasting everyone's time.

Long bus ride and not a very interesting site.

The trip was pretty, the ruins impressive and the view from the top awe inspiring. The thing is it is an hour each way on a bus and we got stuck in traffic, not that it is the fault of th company. The guide spoke 4 different languages, all with a thick accent. It was nice but I wouldn't say that this is a must see.

With all respect, I do not recommend this one. It's too far to see only the ruins. There is a small restaurant and a gift shop but I do not recommend to buy anything there since it's more expensive than Paris. For some of you whom may be interested to go, take your own provisions.

The actual site is a complete let down. Do not recommend this trip to anyone. What was probably more interesting was the drive to the destination.
