Passeios por My Son Sanctuary

I had a wonderful experience on my day trip to Mỹ Sơn Sanctuary. Everything was thoughtfully planned from start to finish. I received clear confirmation and pickup instructions ahead of time, and the driver made the journey feel safe and easy. Our guide, Hiếu, was knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely kind. I learned so much about the local culture and the deep history of the area. The sanctuary itself was magnificent, and the local lunch included on the tour was tasty and relaxing. The group size was just right & not too big with a mix of solo travelers (like me) and pairs. From what I observed, everyone was treated kindly and taken care of. The boat ride down the river through Hoi An’s old town was such a lovely way to end the day before heading back to Da Nang. I felt safe, inspired, and enriched throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend.

This is a natural landscape and historical site far from the city, so there are significantly fewer visitors compared to Ba Na Hills or Hoi An Ancient Town. It is quite a distance, so if you're not particularly interested in natural scenery and historical sites, I wouldn't highly recommend making the trip. There are many ancient temples within the park, but according to the guide, over 80% have been rebuilt because most of the temples were destroyed by successive rulers and bombing during the Vietnam War. If you're not a history buff, you might find that they all look pretty similar. It's extremely hot in the summer, and there are no air-conditioned areas within the entire park, so only the shade of trees offers some respite. There are quite a few small black mosquitoes inside, so remember to bring insect repellent. I purchased a package that included a rice paper making experience and a very special home-cooked meal, both of which were unique experiences. Overall, considering the price includes a guide, driver, admission tickets to the attractions, the rice paper experience, and the home-cooked meal, the value for money is actually very high.

Que bom que reservei um passeio! Estou viajando sozinha e o passeio em grupo foi a escolha certa. Fomos buscados e deixados no meu hotel. A Joy, nossa guia, foi uma querida e muito atenciosa. Só tem bastante caminhada e pode ficar bem úmido e quente. Gostei do macarrão que nos serviram depois do passeio. Leve água, leque, guarda-chuva e roupa extra, por precaução. Também leve dinheiro em espécie. A taxa de entrada de 150.000 VND não está incluída neste passeio.

They told me a lot about the My Son Sanctuary. Since it's a tour, it's a bit disappointing that we can only see a part of the vast grounds, but it's possible to make it an efficient trip.

My Son Sanctuary is fine, but the tour guide was very talkative. While I understand his passion and vast knowledge, the information provided for each and every stone was overkill for me. 😅 My Son can be done as a DIY trip and completed in an hour if the tour guide would only focus on the highlights and give tourists more time to take pictures than listen to him! Hoi An was very nice, chill, and our tour guide there was great. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with the tour – comfortable transfers and the inclusion in the ticket price offered good value for money.

If you wanted to hit your daily 10k steps goal, this tour is for you. The Marble Mountains have lots of stairs, but its summit offered great views of Da Nang city. You’ll also get to visit lots of pagodas and temples within caverns. Meanwhile, the My Son Sanctuary has many interesting structures and sculptures. This is one of the recommended places to visit if you’re curious about the history of Vietnam, particularly its lost kingdom of Champa. What I really liked about this tour is our guide, Justin. He has a very upbeat attitude and is very knowledgeable about the history and details of the places we visited. Overall, I had a great time during our tour. P.S. You might want to bring an umbrella or cap/hat if you’re touring on a sunny day because the heat is quite unbearable.

My Son sanctuary requires a lot of walking but a very nice place to visit. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the ancient history.
