Great early morning experience - This was a great early morning idea to see the sanctuary and beat the tourist crowd. The tour staff is kind and helpful, picking up at multiple spots and arranging coffee and breakfast noodles. Our guide Ken was amazing despite a really rainy day. He was knowledgeable and personally very interesting. He incorporated a lot of history too

Enchanting morning in My Son - This tour was really great!! Definitely worth getting up for. We had the opportunity to tour the site alone, and the guide was really interesting. I truly recommend it

Go! You won't be disappointed - This tour was worth getting up early for! We were the first group on site, so got an opportunity to take some great photos and before it got too hot. Our guide Thao was amazing. Talking about Vietnamese life/culture on the way to the sanctuary. And so much knowledge about the Cham history and restoration projects. Was just a brilliant morning.

One of our Vietnam highlights - It made a huuuuge difference arriving a few hours ahead of the main tourist groups. This allowed us to be one of only 2 small groups in the beautiful jungle setting. Our guide was super informative and had so much information to give us about the area and the temples and was happy to answer any questions. An amazing incite into Hinduism within Vietnam.

Essential - Excellent Guide and excursion, at the best time of day. Despite the rain we enjoyed our visit, and it even gave a nice color to the ruins. The Guide was very attentive, providing very interesting data in a pleasant and clear way. I highly recommend it.

Recommend - Fun, informative rainy day out. Smaller tours - 11 ppl; with hotel pickup. Highly recommend if you want a casual yet information visit to My Son Sanctuary. Guide was helpful, offered photography tips and shared stories. Guide wasn’t super regimented like some other tours which allowed everyone to have their own experience at their own reasonable pace. Don’t let the rain deter you from booking this trip. It was still wonderful. Breakfast / lunch was delicious. Recommend for solo, couple or groups.

Well worth the early start! - Well worth the early start! We arrived at My Son Sanctuary around 6:30AM before the heat of the day and the crowds. We enjoyed a short buggy ride from the car park, to the Cafe, where we enjoyed some lovely vietnamese coffee. Our guide, Thao, was amazing! He shared the history of the ruins in a fun and informative way, while also providing us with an understanding of the different religions and practices for context. We were then free to explore the Sanctuary and take photos. Breakfast was a tasty noodle dish which we enjoyed with some sweet fruits. We left the Sanctuary just as the tourist buses were arriving. A wonderful early morning trip! Thanks Thao!

A wonderful, efficient service to an interesting location. - What a wonderful tour! We received confirmation details the day before along with an accurate collection time. Our guide gave much information during the drive and was very helpful taking photos of all the family groups on the tour. It was worth the early start as we were leaving as big bus loads of tourists arrived. The early tour also meant onto 2 other small groups were present and we could get photos of the ruins without a crowd of tourists being present. A coffee/ tea/water was served soon after arrival. The brunch was served before leaving My Son so if you are a breakfast person I would eat something before the tour. I would highly recommend this company and this early morning tour!
