“We enjoyed a fun day. Aom was our tour guide and my family really enjoyed the trip. We started early and visited a temple before heading to the water lilies, which we arrived at 8:40. The restaurant opens at 9. The queue for photos already started prior to 9 and the first drone pictures start at 9:30. We were in the queue until 10:20. You can get coffee, breakfast or lunch if you wish, while waiting. We saw many more people arrive after our tour. We also visited two more temples. Our family appreciated getting the photos and spending our morning with Aom.”
