“Lin was our amazing tour guide for this excursion. She was very knowledgeable about the site and explained very clearly and thoroughly the history of the site and its significance, both historically & culturally. It was great to get some context for where we were and what we were seeing. Without a guide the experience would be far less interesting and no where near as enjoyable. Lin was a very engaging and fun guide and helped us experience the site before the heat of the day took over and before the other tour groups arrived.”
