Excellent experience,...
Seema_S, October 2026
Excellent experience, worth the money. Our tour guide, Kid, was wonderful. Attentive and clearly wanted to ensure everyone had the best experience. He learned everyone’s name and took pictures at all the most scenic spots. He was constantly working the whole time, even on the train. If you get Kid as your tour guide, you are promised to have a great time, commemorated with plenty of great pictures.

A tour is the best option.
Jeff_T, September 2026
If you want to go to the top, take a tour. The guide does an enormous amount of work to make your trip a success. It would be highly stressful to do it on your own.
