A journey back in time reveals some of Vietnam’s greatest architectural and cultural treasures. This informative half-day journey from Hoi An takes us to the ancient temple complex of My Son Sanctuary in a classic jeep, travelling through peaceful countryside and quaint traditional villages. Once the spiritual heart of the Champa Kingdom between the 4th and 13th centuries, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its red-brick towers nestled among lush hills. Remarkably, the Cham builders constructed these temples without mortar, using techniques that still intrigue historians today. These structures offer a powerful glimpse into this ancient civilisation. As we explore the venerable sites, our guide will bring the exploration to life with stories of Hindu deities, Cham rituals and architectural symbolism woven into each tower. The experience concludes with a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant before we return to Hoi An.

Other
Dietary Requirements: Please notify the tour team in advance if you have any food allergies or specific dietary restrictions (such as vegetarian or vegan requirements) so the local restaurant lunch can be accommodated safely.

Other
Comfortable Footwear: Sturdy, comfortable walking shoes or sneakers are a must. Exploring the sanctuary involves walking along uneven, dirt, and sometimes slippery stone pathways.

Weather Gear: A light jacket to block the wind during the open-air jeep ride, and a compact umbrella or rain poncho if traveling during the rainy season.
Other
Insect Repellent: Useful to apply before exploring, as the ruins are nestled deep within a lush, forested valley.
