“This My Son tour was absolutely fantastic! Our guide was excellent, bringing the ancient Champa history to life as we explored the incredible ruins. The Apsara dance performance was a beautiful cultural highlight. What truly made this tour stand out was the visit to the local house to learn how to make rice paper.
