This is what I did, except on the morning of Day 3 I hired a tuk-tuk to drive me to a few temples in and around town that I wanted to see. I lucked out and got a driver who was familiar with the temples and spoke very good english. IIRC, I left at 8:00 am, got back to the hotel around noon and headed to the airport for my Air Asia flight back to DMK at one. I hired a tour guide and driver for Day 2 and walked around town on my own for afternoon/evening 1.
