Hard to understand with a microphone and busy street stops. Took and hour and a half and stopped tour early because most of participants didn’t come prepared to go in the temple. Friendly and professional guide.

After confirming three times, including two hours prior to the meetup time, via message we arrived 10min early and waited 40 minutes. He didn’t show up and wouldn’t respond to our messages. We planned our whole day around this trip and would have left much earlier to beat the heat, had we not planned on this guide. We also took transportation to get to the meetup, which was an inconvenient extra stop. He is unreliable and was rude in our message conversations when I was requesting the name of the hotel (as only the address was listed).

This was our second tour with Jalil and we really like him. It was clear we only stopped at his friends shops where he probably got a cut- which was fine with me, but good to know in advance. I thought he would help with the prices, but he didn’t. Good idea to come with a few things you are looking for!
