Well organized - It was a well organized trip! Our tour guide Michael was very energetic and knowledgable. And the pace of the tour is just right. He made sure we are all okay as the weather was really hot and humid. Also joined his tour in the afternoon for the Marble Mountains and Monkey Mountains and it was great.

My Son Tour - We went during a heat wave, so temperature was a bit rough, but we still had a wonderful time despite that. Our guide was very energetic and informative. The rice paper making demonstration and local lunch afterwards were very cool and delicious!!

Interesting and varied half day trip - The day started at 7.30 with pick up from our hotel then on to see how rice paper was made. We got to give it a go. Next was My Son. Very interesting tour around the site finishing with a dance and music show. Very, very hot though in April Lunch was at a local restaurant and was delicious. Finally a 20min boat ride into Hoi An with the choice of either returning to our respective hotels or stay in the old town to explore. Got dropped off around 1.30. Our guide Dung aka handsome man (his words not ours) was very informative and funny.

A lovely tour to My Son - A good half-day tour. We had a very friendly and active guide, Michael, who was well-versed in history and told us a lot about the temple. What we liked was that everything was planned to the minute by Michael, so nobody was late anywhere. He always scanned the area, checking where everyone was and asking if anyone needed assistance. He did a great job, exceeding expectations by 150%. We stopped by a private house to see and try how rice paper is made. We also went for lunch, which turned out to be very delicious and filling. The way Michael taught us the pronunciation of the temple's name will stay in my memory forever. I haven't laughed like that in ages! I recommend this tour. Hopefully, you'll get Michael as your guide!

Great historical visit, and well organized and affordable tour - The tour is very well planned. Michael, the guide provided great explanations and made the ambiance very nice in our group. Michael also showed a lot of respect for the ethnic group that Vietnamese disseminated back then. The site is quite damaged though, due to the American bombing. Besides all of the deaths of that useless war, I could not believe that they attacked such historical sites. But worth seeing nonetheless.

Excellent trip - Our tour guide Michael is excellent. His service is excellent. He will explain very clearly for the whole trip. What we don't understanding, he will takes his time slowly to explain. On the whole he is very joking & makes our whole tour very happy & enjoyable. He also take his time to take photos for us. Thks to Michael for this unforgetable trip in Hoi An
