It was good to be able to visit historical buildings in one day. Lunch was also delicious. To be honest, we don't speak English, so I don't know if the guide was good or bad. The traffic is really bad (Read More), so don't expect to get back on time. Even on a weekday. We were supposed to get off in front of Starbucks, but we got off at a different place before, probably because the roads were too crowded. Jonker Street felt like Chinatown in Japan, but to be honest, we didn't stay there for two hours, so I think it would be okay to go back an hour earlier.
