“Hats off to Van, our knowledgeable guide for the afternoon and a veteran of the Vietnam war. His passion and enthusiasm for history was infectious. We were lucky with the weather for My Son too, a little cloud and a touch of breeze helped us to concentrate on his commentary. The trip ended with a boat journey back into Hoi An whilst we ate BBQ skewers and a cold beer.”
