Long day and it was a private tour so he was willing to extend our trip if we wanted. Tour guide spoke English but not great. Beautiful area. Be sure to bring clothing with you if you want to go into the temple. A sorong for a woman to cover your legs and arms also. Bit of a hassle but they provide something for you to wear if you forget. Not pretty for sure so bring something with you. The village wasn't what I expected. It was more of a market. Pretty modernized. Not quite the village I was expecting.
