The Best Adventure - We had an unforgettable experience on our tour to My Son Sanctuary, Lady Buddha, and Marble Mountain. The places were absolutely stunning! I loved this tour because everything was perfectly organized — they were very punctual, flexible with photo stops, and gave us enough time to explore each location. Our tour guide Abby was amazing — very knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, as was our van driver. I 100% recommend this tour! When I return with my whole family, I’ll definitely do it again.

La Siesta Resort Hoi An - La Siesta Hoi An is amazing from the moment you enter the reception area to the gardens, rooms are all wonderful.
The best part is the staff they cannot do enough to make your stay amazing.

I would also love to thank Lan, Tri Nguyon, Thuong and Ngan you made staying there a pleasure with you wonderful service skills, laughter and friendless we were made welcome.
I would also like to say thank you to the cleaning staff as the rooms are spotless.
My husband and I are now looking forward to our next trip there.

Thank you La Siesta

Beautiful day thanks to our guide Mr. Tom - An adventure-packed day ! My Son is a must-see, it's way more vast than one sees in photos, it's a green Paradise ! Lady Buddha offers a beautiful panorama of the city and Marble Mountain's caves are equally impressive. This experience would not have been the same without our guide Mr. Tom, who took great care of us and answered all of our questions throughout the day.

Thanks Lac! Great tour, amazing sights to see! - Lac was a great tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and did an excellent tour through all of the spots on the tour. We really enjoyed everything he had to share about the sites and he had a great knowledge of the history of the region and explained the significance of the sites we visited in a really interesting way. The tour was great, lots of walking and very rewarding with some really beautiful spots. Thankfully Lac is an expert panorama photo taker so some really beautiful photos too! Would definitely recommend this tour, was a great way to see some highlights from Hoi An without it feeling chaotic or pressured for time. Really amazing!

Very reliable; Excellent guide. - We were picked up on time at our hotel by our driver and our guide Luc. We visited Marble Mountains, My Son and Lady Buddha. Luc was very informative and gave us lots of time to wander and take in all the sights.
They take you to My Son first which is good as it got really warm very quickly and there isn't much shade there. The communication we had from the company was excellent - they respond very promptly to questions and they amended our schedule with no issues.
There are quite a few steps at the Marble Mountains. You will want to be reasonably able bodied and fit to manage these. There is an elevator up the mountain but still many stairs to negotiate while up there.

Great tour full of sights, facts & fun - What a great day trip, far exceeding our expectations & well worth the cost. We cautiously booked the trip online through Trip Advisor based on the itinerary & the reviews. I was not quite sure about the value for money (it was Aus$114 each) and wondered if I could do the sights myself a lot cheaper. But I was happy once we got going in the mini van with our superb guide River and 7 other passengers. River was a great guide, she was happy, confident, full of facts & local knowledge.
Our trip to Monkey Mountain, the big pagoda and then the giant white Buddha statue, was great. Then we went to the Marble Mountain & explored the various caves & temples. The caves were massive, cathedral like, with other smaller ones leading off into areas described as descending into hell and others rising up to heaven.
River showed us around and explained much of the history of the place. Afterwards we went for a lovely 3 course lunch at the riverfront Brothers Cafe in Hoi An and then drove out into the countryside to the My Son temple complex. The afternoon tour there was extensive & again River was very informative, ensuring we all had the opportunity to ask questions & understand the different style of structures in the history of Vietnam.
It was a great 10 hour day tour, full of sights, facts & fun.

Go for My Son, Skip Marble Mtn - Pros: Guide was great, My Son Sanctuary is definitely worth seeing. Lunch was fantastic and exceeded expectations.
Cons: Marble Mountain was not what I had expected, and was largely forgettable and a slight (but not complete) tourist trap. I would recommend doing the first half only for My Son.
