Beautiful place, excellent guide - Brilliant tour! Susan was the best guide ever - she's super informative, funny, and her English is perfect. Breakfast was yum, vegetarians are well catered for. 100% worth the early start, there weren't many people there and it hadn't gotten too hot yet. Very much recommend - especially with Susan!! There was so much good info that I evek took notes!!

The best way too see My Son - It's really interesting to see this slice of Champa culture from different eras and in different states - from original to severely damaged to restored to really poorly restored. Also eye opening to see the bomb craters, shrapnel and bullet holes. Morning is definitely the best time to go, before it gets too hot and crowded. The Sun was already starting to get oppressive when we were leaving and there were masses of people streaming in - no idea how they'd all get to see the ruins. Our guide was super information, both about My Son and also his and his family's experiences with the war and remaining bombs and things. Breakfast of my quang was delicious. I recommend the chilli paste. Yum.

Great- do the early tour! - A great tour. The guide was excellent- friendly, personal and a great command of English, easy to understand. Helpful that he explained in advance what the trip plan was. Loved the history - guide knew his stuff and an interesting personal perspective from his family background. DEFINITELY take the early tour! 5.30am pick up. No one at site and cooler! Breakfast was great too! FYI we booked as seniors- no surcharges!

Wow amazing place! - Excellent tour! Guide (Tao) shared a wealth of knowledge on the trip to the sanctuary and on site. Beautiful sights and super interesting history. Bit of a mission to start the day so early, but honestly well worth it to avoid both the crowds and the heat.

Meason in summer recommends a cool morning visit with a guide - It was helpful that it was very quiet and cool there because it was early morning. And as other word of mouth has it, the guide explained it well and I think that if I had come personally I would have understood it only superficially. It was deeply moving to know along with modern and contemporary historical background.

Friendly. Caring. Interesting. Go find Han! - Han is a recommended guide! He explained the background well of the context between Vietnamese and Champa people and was approachable throughout, helping with photos and sending to us. He took care of a group from HK, US, Europe and created a good bond! Hope you're well and take care Han!

Surcharge for being over 50 - You charged me a 10% surcharge because I was over 50 years old. Why did you do that? Why do you apply fees for being over 50

Not satisfied - The site is very nice and interesting. The logistics organization (bus, breakfast etc) worked well, but the guided tour was disappointing, little information about the Champa civilization and the site, I learned more on my own by reading the wikipedia page. Wasted money.
