Insightful & Enjoyable Tour - I did a sunrise tour to My Son with Ken. Ken is very knowledgeable & very enthusiastic. He is unselfish on sharing his knowledge & try to make the trip as pleasant as possible. He even took many pictures for me as I am a solo traveler. Join this sunrise tour as you will enjoy it.

Wonderful and thoughtful arrangement and care from Andy - We did our tour of Golden Hands Bridge and Ba Na hills with Andy first. It went smooth and wonderful so I have decided to do our second full-day trip with him as well. Andy so kindly tailored our itinerary and our vegetarian lunch based on our preferences and schedules. We had a great time at Cam Thanh, Marble Mountain and My Son Sanctuary. All in all, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Very insightful tour! - We did the sunrise tour of My Son. Mr Ken and his driver picked us up just after 5am and we reached My Son by 6am. It was very peaceful being at My Son so early and seeing the sunrise before the bus loads of tourists arrive. It was also great to be there before i got to hit, definitely recommend a sunrise tour! Mr Ken was very enthusiastic and took great photos for us. He also taught us a lot about the site the regions history. Highly recommend this tour!

Incredible experience - We had an incredible time at My Son for the sunrise tour. It felt like we had the sanctuary to ourselves save for a few other people that early in the morning. Mr. Ken was a friendly and interesting guide with plenty of insight and stories from the area. Highly recommended!

My Son Sunrise Tour with Andy and Ken - We had a wonderful Trip! Ken and Andy picked us up at our hotel very well in time (the Communication beforehand was easy!) and then they drove us to My Son. Ken is a perfect guide, he witnessed most of the younger Vietnamese history himself and gave us valuable insights into life in Vietnam from the 50s till today, and, needless-to-say he guided us through My Son and the story of the Cham people in very informative and intriguing way!
Thank you, Andy and Ken, for this very special tour!

Excellent Tour Guide !! - I took the 5 AM tour to My Son from Hoi An. Ken, my tour guide, was a wonderful source of information.
Ken was punctual picking me up, had extensive knowledge of the history of My Son and many interesting details about the construction, partial destruction during the Vietnam War and the current work being done to restore the monuments.
What made this tour extra special, was Ken. During our trip to and from Hoi An to My Son he gave me a detailed history of Vietnam during the last 60 years, with names, dates, and opinions. Every question I asked, he gave me a thoughtful answer. On our way back, he told me his personal story. How he , as a kid, became involved with the US Army in Da Nang, learned english helped by them, experienced the war first hand as an adult translator, and after the War his 2 years in re education camps.
What a great experience it was for me to be able to listen and talk to Ken.
