Itinerary

Begin your full-day tour when your guide picks you up at your Hoi An or Danang hotel, then settle into your comfortable air-conditioned minivan for a scenic 30-mile (50-km) drive to My Son.

The My Son temple complex contains the most important monuments of the Champa Kingdom, which flourished in coastal Vietnam from the 4th to 13th centuries. My Son was the religious and intellectual center kingdom and had approximately 70 structures at its zenith. About 20 structures remain, some well-preserved while others have tumbled down. Stroll at a leisurely pace with your guide to take in the magnificent site and learn about My Son's architectural styles, cultural significance and history, which includes influences from India. Enjoy plenty of stops for photo ops before heading to Hoi An for the afternoon.

Upon your arrival in Hoi An, stop into a local restaurant for a tasty Vietnamese lunch. Afterward, set off with your guide to explore the Ancient Town of Hoi An on foot. The World Heritage-listed Ancient Town got its start as a port more than 2,000 years ago. Chinese, Hindu and Arab influences can be detected in the architecture, cuisine and rich culture. Stroll along the colorful pedestrian-only streets to see highlights such as the Japanese Covered Bridge, historic wooden merchant homes, a bustling food market and small shops that carry clothing, silk, antiques, handicrafts and more.

After your guided walking tour of Hoi An Ancient Town, your full-day tour ends with hotel drop-off in Hoi An or Danang.

Beautiful , good choice!

Maria_D, Apr 2025

In the morning My son sanctuary was very nice, food, and dance included and our guide was great. He taught many things about history in Vietnam, very informative. In the afternoon the other guide took us to the ancient city, it was difficult to manage so many people distracted in the market, so for that , the guide made a lot of effort maintaining the group together.

Great My Son and Old town tour

Janey_A, Apr 2023

Great experience, lots of history, guide was very knowledgeable, like a small group idea, the knowledge of the old town was great too

Amazing town to visit

Daniel_M, Oct 2019

We visited My Son and Hoi An on a tour with Bravo Tours, and had the best guide, Mr Andy, friendly and considerate. Although there was rain, thunder and lightning, it just added to the majesty and atmosphere of this very significant and ancient complex of ruins. I would highly recommend doing My Son and Hoi An, to understand the history of Vietnam and the Champa peoples

Response from Host, Oct 2019

Hi Daniel, I was so pleased to hear from you and look forward to be with you for next trip in future. All the best !

It was quite disappointing...

ManYan_L, Apr 2018

It was quite disappointing seriously. I booked this trip 2 weeks before the trip. However, nobody contacted me until last minute, which it because i whatsapp them the night before tour. We didn't know about the meeting time initially at 8am as they changed last minute and that email fell into junk mail. So I wasted 1 hour waiting in the early morning. Then when the driver came, he did not explain ANYTHING but asked us to get on the car and kept driving. We had no clue where to go and who we will meet. Finally we arrived Hoi An and picked up the guide. He told us that he sneaked out from a group to receive us for the morning. Then he has to rush back to his group. The guide was professional and explained us much about My Son. The lunch was ok but lots of flies in the restaurant when we were dining. Driver was able to pick us up at 7pm for 350vnd more. Yet he offered 10k vnd more I heard it in English - TEN THOUSAND from restaurant in danang to hotel but asked us to pay 200vnd when we got off, which was even more than from airport to hotel . It was not pleasant overall. I would recommend travelers to choose other service provider or book on site as there are many more options to choose. The earlier you book, does not mean the better service you get.

Good value and a really interestingness...

Thanks Tan our tour guide from Hoi An for providing all the group with the most informative, passionate, personal and definitely funniest day I had on my trip to Vietnam. The Hoi An and My Son day tour itself was brilliant. Thank you Bravo Indochina Tours again. Go there and It's worth it.
