Highlights
1. Smooth and personalized logistics Your experience begins right on your doorstep. Enjoy a private pick-up directly from your Inn in Hoi An by your Guide and driver. After a morning of exploration rich in discoveries, let’s ensure a comfortable return to Hoi An in the early afternoon, leaving you the rest of the day to stroll through the old town. 2. Immersion in the intellectual and religious centre of the Champa Much more than just a visit to ruins, this tour reveals the duality of the ancient kingdom: if Simhapura was its political capital, My Son was its intellectual and religious heart. Between the 4th and 13th centuries, this sanctuary was the nerve centre of Cham thought and spirituality. From the end of the 4th century, the Cham erected towers and majestic temples dedicated to kings and Brahmin deities.
