• Amazing half-day trip from Da Nang/Hoi An

  The half day visit to the My Son UNESCO World Heritage sanctuary is a must do experience from Da Nang/Hoi An. I was staying in Da Nang, and was picked up in the morning and transferred to the trip starting point in Hoi An. A small group of tourists were then put together in a van, which takes about an hour to reach the My Son sanctuary. During the drive, our knowledgable guide Mr. Phillip provided us with a lot of information about the place, and how it fits into the overall history of Vietnam. Once we reached there, we were supposed to buy the entrance tickets ourselves (not included in the tour package), which cost 150K VND per person. Much of the sanctuary was severely affected by the bombing during the Vietnam war, but temples belonging to groups B, C and D are in a reasonably good shape, and are amazing to look at, while restoration work is being carried out at other temple sites. There is a cultural program in the theatre at the My Son site, where traditional music and dances of the Champa people are performed for the guests. The My Son site itself is surrounded by lush green nature and is highly enjoyable. Once the site visit was over, we were transferred to a home in a Vietnamese village en route to Hoi An, and were served fresh Vietnamese traditional lunch, which could be tailored for vegans and vegetarians as well (one needs to let the tour organizers know in advance). Finally, after the lunch, we drove back to Hoi An, where we did a boat cruise on the Thu Bon river for about 20 minutes. Overall, it was a very nice and memorable trip. My only complaint would be that the organizers should provide more time to the guests to explore the My Son site on their own.

  Very nice experience at My Son sanctuary! Perhaps I would have skipped the traditional dance to have more time to explore the temples.

  Our guide was very friendly and informative. We had a nice small group of only 12 people. The ruins were quite busy (but not too bad). I definitely recommend going early to avoid the heavier crowds and the heat. There was a performance at the ruins which was a nice surprise. They accommodated vegetarians at lunch and provided plenty of food, but it was just okay (flavor wise). The boat ride at the end was a nice way too break up the return trip to Hoi An.

• Mr Toàn is an excellent guide

  A great tour of My Son Sanctuary - our guide Mr Toàn was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the site and the Champa people and has an excellent way or telling their story and explaining things. We learnt so much! Thoroughly recommend.

  The trip was too rushed. Didn’t have time to explore. The boat trip was cancelled and the lunch wasn’t great.
