The official rate for a guide is usually around 15 to 20 USD for a comprehensive three hour tour. Just ensure they show you their official tourist board ID badge before you agree on a price.

Hiring a local guide is brilliant because they can hop in your tuk tuk or cycle alongside you, explaining the fascinating medieval history and pointing out intricate stone carvings you would otherwise miss.
