We had a fantastic morning learning about the history of My Son Sanctuary. A special thank you to Lucky, who was incredibly informative, had a great sense of humour, and made everyone feel so welcome. It really made the experience even more enjoyable.
This was a great experience—we were picked up on time in an air conditioned van, and saw my son sanctuary in the early morning, with no crowds. Sherlock, our guide, was knowledgeable and entertaining. The coffee and breakfast were delicious. A great price for how much is offered!
Such a beautiful early morning trip to My Son sanctuary, well worth the early start to beat the heat and the crowds. Our guide Lucky (Lám) was brilliant. Lucky shared so much information with us about the area and history and is from the village in My Son so knows the area well. The lunch was delicious 😋 The ruins are incredibly beautiful and important, I really recommend you book this tour. A lovely group of people were on my tour so I enjoyed it very much. Thank you to Lucky, and our driver for making this tour so enjoyable.
Early morning trip recommend otherwise it gets too hot. The temple site shed light on the history and culture of Vietnam
The My Son Sanctuary is a special place to visit. The sanctuary is very special and lots of wildlife glimpsed too. The early morning get up and arrival was worth it. The trip was made even better because of our guide Lyn. She is the best tour guide we have had in Vietnam, her knowledge of the venue was very interesting but the fact she shared details about local and living in Vietnam and her family made it a fabulous glimpse into life here. Thank you Lyn. Breakfast was fabulous too.
Very enjoyable and well worth the time and the early start . We were one of the few to start so early at My Son and by the time we came out it was getting busy. Lin was an amazing guide who was friendly knowledgeable caring and spoke immaculate English. The site was similar to the ruins in and around Cambodia’s Ankor wat, but small enough for 2-3 hours walk around. Lin taught us to identify what was new vs what was original , and took us to different groups of ruins at the site. Aside from the ruins , the environment was beautiful in the early morning ; Lin pointed out to us lotus in bloom, jackfruit trees, even a baboon. Lin made our My Son trip that much more meaningful.
Very nice experience, our guide was so dynamic and funny, made the trip very interesting.
Go early before it’s too hot! Sherlock gave great info and kindly took our photos at the perfect spots. All the other folks on the tour were lovely as well. The coffee upon arrival at My Son was great timing and the noodles were delicious.
Culturally immersive experience. Our guide shared many stories of his family and his life in rural My Son. The unique historical site was in a beautiful jungle area surrounded by indigenous flora and fauna. This was a highlight of our trip and exceptionally good value.
Great tour! Han was an excellent guide, informative and funny. Definitely recommend going early it’s much cooler and less busy. The traditional breakfast at the end is delicious. If you want to go to My Son we highly recommend this tour.
