Would Give It Six Stars If I Could
Our tour guide was Lin, and she was incredible. She knew just about everything there was to know about this ancient, holy place. She was friendly, funny, and a genuine pleasure to be around. She also speaks perfect English.
The site is gorgeous, and the early morning tour is not blistering hot. They will pick you up from just about anywhere and get you to My Son FAST. The breakfast was delicious, as well.
Would do this tour again.

The Mỹ Sơn ruins in the morning, you were right!
It was really good to be on the morning tour. The heat is harsh during the day, so we recommend the morning plan, which is relatively cool and can be visited slowly during the day when there are few people.
Mr. Ben, our guide, explained the history and purpose of the ruins attentively, which greatly deepened our understanding. You'll have less free time, but it's an efficient way to cover key highlights, making it ideal for those with limited time. The differences in the restorations were also interesting, especially in the vivid colors of the unrestored parts, which surprised me at the high level of technology at the time.
As a reminder, we recommend that you carefully check your pickup location. In my case, it turned out to be an area that was not covered by the transfer at the last minute, as the tour company contacted me last minute. I was impatient, but I was very relieved to receive conscientious suggestions such as paid transfers and cancellations, and to respond with integrity.
It was a compact but satisfying tour, with breakfast Banh Mi (the ingredients were fixed but delicious!) and a choice of drinks.

My Son Tour
Well worth the early start to beat the crowds and heat. Ben the guide was lovely, informative and funny. The coffee and banh mi at the end was lovely. Only recommendation I have is eat some food before you go or pack some snacks as the included food is not until the end of the tour.

Passionate
The advantage is that the tour is early in the morning. The nature on site is beautiful and because everyone is still sleeping, you can enjoy the sounds of nature.
Now for the negative. Unfortunately, the tour guide had not conveyed any passion. It got boring pretty quickly. He calls himself Number 2. To say yourself that there is still train Mi after and that it is not the best, makes you not exactly want to have breakfast. This was also confirmed, the track Mi was not delicious.

Excellent visit and well-organized
We really enjoyed the visit, Philip is an excellent and enthousiast guide. The transport was ponctual and well organized as the rest of the tour. We were only 6 persons doing the tour, so it was comfortable. It was really worth it to come early the morning.

Organized tour and inexpensive, but don’t go
I love how the trip started early, we were the first ones, beat the cruisers.
The whole trip was very organized, pick us at the hotel on time, the guide had great time management skills and gave us lots of information on the temples.
The tour is very inexpensive but, I would not recommend going to the temples. The temple site is made of a collection of buildings that the majority we’re bombed and then the restoration was done badly with bricks from the local Home Depot.
Again, the tour was well organized and cheap, but nothing to see here.

Fully recommended!
It was very worth starting early in the day because it wasn't so hot yet and you could enjoy the place without much visitor congestion. Besides, he left the rest of the day to meet and take another tour.
Quite a lot of information received from the guide about the place, plus made the interaction entertaining.
The Banh my and coffee were also very good!
Small group on the tour.

No frills tour of My Son Sanctuary
This was the perfect tour for anyone wanting a no frills experience of the My Son Sanctuary and temples. Emma was a fantastic guide, with great English and lots of knowledge about the specifics of the temples and their history. The banh mi and coffee on the way back was delicious. I highly recommend going at 5.30am as we did, as I can see how hot it gets out there! Thanks for the great experience.
