Definitely get a guided tour. Although you pay a lot more, without the historical context you could miss a lot. We used Nhue Concierge guided tour.

Allow yourself at least 3 hours if you are in good health to walk 3-4 miles in a stretch. Older friends allow more time for breaks. Place is amazing and makes you wonder how they built these during that time.
