Well organised and fun trip - We both really enjoyed this tour. It was well organised and everything worked. We were picked up on time and driven to My Son. Once we reached the temples our guide suggested we took photos before it became too busy and then return to see the show. Afterwards she took us round the complex and told us about its purpose, history and restoration. We then went for lunch which, though simple, was very tasty. Leaving My Son we stopped to watch, and join in rice paper making. Finally we sailed back to Hoi An. We were a small group of 10 which made it easier to hear the information and Yen our guide was really eager for us to enjoy and learn from the trip. We added on the basket boat ride in the afternoon which was great fun. We were then returned to our hotel. We had a great experience on this well organised tour

would recommend - Well run efficient tour from Hoi An to My Son. I would recommend doing this tor with this company. The guide was knowledgeable and personable and made for an interesting and enjoyable day. The trip back on the river is a huge plus over a return trip in the van.

Excellent trip - awesome value! - This was an excellent trip. Well paced, not too fast. Learning about rice paper making was cool (an added bonus).
The van was on time and comfortable.
The Sanctuary was really interesting to see! Loved being able to touch such ancient buildings. Has a sad history from the fallout of the Vietnam/US war. Too much destruction.
The lunch after was tasty!
Our tour guide had a lot of information that she gave us through the trip.
The boat ride back was nice too, to see Hoi An from the water added a nice perspective (and no crazy scooters to scare us when in the van!).

A great tour , would recommend to anyone who visits Hoi An - Pick up comms was very clear and the mini van transport was very comfortable. Stops were brill - My Son very interesting. The group was small and really gelled, especially over lunch. Tour guide (sorry forgot her name) looked after everyone, very good English and had lots of good info.

Great tour guide - Our tour guide Van was super friendly and knowledgeable and gave us a great tour. He was great to chat to, I asked about monkeys and he told me a story about when he saw a monkey fighting a bird at my son. I believe he is 80 years old and he is fit as a fiddle, he said it is because he lives his job. All in all, a really nice day out and very professional and ran very smoothly.

We had a great day at My... - We had a great day at My Son Sanctuary. Timings were ideal and we learned a lot about different cultures and the reconstruction process due to the knowledgeable guide. The boat trip, lunch and rice paper visit were much enjoyed.
One improvement point would be to use a safer mini bus driver, our one was overtaking other cars at speed and it did not feel safe for many passengers.
