I want to thank our amazing tour guide Kevin for the tour today! Not only were the views and history stunning, Kevin was a very funny guy and made the journey worth it. Would recommend to all :) Dont be scared of the trek up the caves, it is not that bad and can be completed with a few breaks.

The tour was good. We saw everything we were supposed to see. The guide explained everything. The only problem was that we kept getting text messages telling us that they will be delayed picking us up from our hotel. This happened several times, so in total, we were delayed 45 minutes just starting our tour. At Marble Mountain, we were told we could not take the elevator to the top because it was not working. But we in fact saw it go up down. We would have preferred to pay extra for elevator. The stairs were very steep and dangerous because they were uneven. On the way down, several sections of the stairs do not have any lights, so it's easy to fall.

The caves and the temples were absolutely stunning, but the guide was a bit of a clown. Michael's humor might not be to everyone's taste. The show is mostly about him, while he is rather thin on historical information. I saw other groups along our way who had better guides. It was still worth it for the attractions, though. You should absolutely take half a day to see these places. Also there is the added bonus of these places not being very far apart, so not very much time is spent in the car. A bottle of water is also included in the ticket.

Overall we enjoyed this tour, our guide was knowledgeable and the advertised sites were worth seeing but I believe there are some things that could be better. Not advertised is a stop at a marble statue production and sales centre. There is a short education about marble statue creation but the real reason you’re brought here is in the hope you’ll buy something. There a lots of sales people following you around which didn’t feel great. The tour also felt rushed when you were at the actual temple. There would be more time at the temple and Buddha if there was no pit stop at the marble statue sale stop. I suspect the reason it’s not listed as a stop is because it would not be appealing for most people and less people would book this trip so be aware.

We are so glad we booked this tour, and very fortunate to have gotten Michael as our tour guide. Not only was it very informative, it was also very entertaining. Our tour guide, Michael truly gave us an unforgettable experience. He was very knowledgeable about each site, as well as the surrounding areas. At each stop, he even offered to take photos for anyone who would like to be in their photo. I must add, the photos and videos turned out amazing! He made it fun by suggesting poses and ideas for short videos. Thanks again for an incredible experience!

Nice mix of views/experiences for a half day tour. We were given a good amount of information/history by our tour guide Liam. I can’t believe some people on here are leaving comments they were mad they didn’t see monkeys on Monkey Mountain. We did, but that’s nature and no one’s fault if you do not see a wild animal. That isn’t a highlight of the tour anyway and you’ll see those types of monkeys on the rest of your trip at some point anyway!

Good tour, Mr Ciao was a knowledgeable and nice guide. Didn’t get to see any monkeys sadly, and it’s not exactly a hike, if that’s what you’re thinking (we did). Otherwise, it’s cool. Get to see the massive statue and the marble mountains.
Response from Host, Nov 2024

I’m so fortunate to be able to travel from Australia…..

To be honest, this was not a good tour.
The guide was always in a rush, we had to run to follow him, we had no time to take pictures and we had no explainations about history or anything. Very disappointed. I could have done this tour bymyself, I would have taken more time to explore.
I would suggest people to not take a tour for the marble mountains.
