Great option to see a worthwhile historical site. - Fantastic tour. My Son is well worth visiting and this is a great way to do it. Our guide spoke excellent English and walked with us through the whole site and was able to explain everything, both the historical aspects and the recent efforts to restore it.
Be aware that the climate at My Son is hotter than Hoi An and you need to stay hydrated. The sunset boat trip back to Hoi An and the BBQ was a great way to end the trip. Highly recommended.

Hassle-free Must Do - Absolutely amazing experience, our guide was completely fluent in english and very knowledgable about My Son itself but also about the surrounding area. Very witty and and just a generally nice person. The BBQ on the boat afterwards was also an amazing experience, with very delicous meats! 10/10 would book again!

Nice half day tour - Thao To is a pleasant guide. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to My Son and the history/nature around it. His English is also very good. We stopped by his house for a coffee to go before heading to the sight. Afterwards we picked up the food for the barbecue, prepared by his family. The barbecue was good and there was more than enough food for us. The wine was a homemade rice wine. Thanks Thao for the informative and enjoyable afternoon.

Amazing experience - Thao To was an excellent guide and I highly recommend him to anyone. I was impressed by his English skills, his knowledge of My Son was vast and he explained in such a way that was easy to take in also allowing time for great pictures.
He also drove through his village providing us coffee from his own home which gave a special touch to the tour, considering that he was sharing much of his tradition.
He's also gone above and beyond in two situations: 1. I was quite unwell due to food poisoning and he provided me with medicine to take away out of his own pocket
2. He gave a 30 year anniversary cake for a couple that was in the same tour as us completely by surprise, this have a personal touch to the experience.
