Excellent Tour - Our family of 4 organized a private tour to My Son Sanctuary and Marble Mountains with Thao. Communication via WhatsApp was excellent from the beginning, and Thao was very knowledgeable and thorough in explaining everything to us. We had lunch at his house and the food was delicious.
We went in July during the day so it was extremely hot so we would recommend doing it early in the morning or late in the afternoon during the hottest months.
We were so happy with his reliable service that we also asked him to drive us to Hue. We highly recommend booking a tour with Thao.

Having a guide makes all the difference. - Having a guide when visiting My Son was a great help in learning about the story of the site.
Now I feel like I have a better understanding of the area, the temple remnants, and how they fit into Vietnamese cultural history.
If the sun is out, definitely pack a hat, sunscreen, and an extra water bottle!

The best experience with an excellent guide. - We did an early morning trip. Thao picked us up at our hotel at 6AM. On our way to the sanctuary we stopped for a coffee, probably the best egg coffee we've had in Vietnam. Full of excitement we continued our journey to the My Son Sanctuary. It is a breathtaking site with an incredible history. Thao is very knowledgeable with a great English vocabulary and accent. He has a passion for his job and history. He his kind, polite and professional. After the tour we had a very delicious lunch at his home with good conversation.
The trip with Thao exceeded my expectations by far! This is definitely a MUST DO when you are in the area and I would most definitely recommend exploring the sanctuary with Thao. Thank you so much for this life long memory.

Great Guide with lots of insights - Don’t do “My Son” without a guide, you miss out on much and more.
The tour was great and the guide could answer all of our many questions. His English was excellent and we (3 Germans) really enjoyed the private tour.

Deficient - Poor, my son's order never arrived, they charged for it, I complained, they didn't care, how poorly attended I felt, and they didn't even offer an apology. leaves a lot to think about and I won't be back
