While the excursion started on time, it ran through quite fast, actuallyended two hours earlier, the guide at every turn tried to sell something a wine from his house or any vendor product, while negotiating a commission on every transaction. I purchased a cigar and the guide pocketed 20k rupees... the tout overall was not impressive! Just driving or googliing Medan you see much more impressive houses of worship and places to visit. IUpon end of the trip he made us completely uncomfortable by basically demanding gratuity doubled of what we gave him, and he still was not…”

Je ligt op een dunne mat met een klein kussentje en fleecedeken onder een muggennet. Geadviseerd: lange kleding! Ook zweet je erg veel dus droge kleding aan te raden.
