My Son Sanctuary
History of My Son: Nestling in a narrow valley surrounded by mountains, this temple and tower complex is a masterpiece of ancient Cham architecture. My Son consisted of 70 architectural works ranging from small to large buildings. My Son was the holy land of Cham people from the 4th to 13th century, dedicated mostly to the deities Shiva, Krishma and Vishnu. Today only about 20 temples remain due to destruction of the site during the war. In the 4th century, in King Bhadravarman’s time, after the construction of TraKieu, the religious centre of Cham kingdom was centred in My Son, and the site was used to welcome royal members, aristocrats and host important religious rituals. Continually developing over nearly nine centuries, My Son witnessed both the glorious and prosperous period of the Champa Kingdom as well as the Kingdom’s decline. Despite the fall of the Champa Kingdom,the Cham culture continues to survive. - Visit the lost champa kingdom in Viet nam History that comes from 2nd century to 15th century and learn about champa culture - Enjoy the beauty of valley surrounding by jungle and mountains - Explore the temples that were built and rebuilt from 4th century to 13rd century - Try to find down how did the cham people built the temple without using mortar

Amazing Day
We had an amazing day with Tea and the driver. Tea was very knowledgeable and took his time explaining everything. Our favorite part of the day was farming with the cutest old lady and the coconut basket boat ride. Overall, it was a day to remember.

Fantastic tour with Ken
Ken collected us in a nice new car with great Air Con and took us out for the day. He was very knowledgeable of the whole area and gave us a full insite of the American/Vietnam war while driving. My Son was amazing and Ken explained everything so well. We had our lunch just the two of us it was fantastic and enough for more than just us. Ken came back after a hour or so to continue the tour dropping us back to our hotel at arround 4pm Would highly recommend.

MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity cost?
+
Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hoi An is not rushed.
Is MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hoi An can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does MY SON Tour & Hoi An Countryside with Basket Boat, Buffalo Ride,Farming Activity start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hoi An within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hoi An?
+
On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include HOI AN Hidden Gems in Rural Villages & River Islands PRIVATE TOUR, Coconut Jungle Eco & Hoi An City Tour With Boat Ride, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hoi An?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hoi An?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
