Overview

This private tour in Da Nang focuses on sites connected to the Vietnam War and the area's natural landmarks. Starting with a hotel pickup in Da Nang or Hoi An, the tour heads to Marble Mountain. Here, the guide leads a visit to Âm Phủ cave, once used by Vietnamese soldiers as a hiding place and hospital during the war. Visitors can either walk 150 steps or take an elevator to reach the mountain peak, where they will see historical pagodas, Buddhist statues, and shrines that remain active with local worship. The tour continues around Marble Mountain's various viewpoints to enjoy views of the river and ocean. It includes a stop at Heaven Cave to observe limestone formations and photo opportunities with statues such as Lady Buddha and Happy Buddha. At the base of the mountain, the 500-year-old marble carving village is visited to watch local artisans creating sculptures. Next, the drive follows the Da Nang coastline to Monkey Mountain (Son Tra Peninsula). From the high points, visitors overlook Da Nang city, the Pacific Ocean, Cham Islands, beaches, and fishing boats. The area is home to common Macaque monkeys and, occasionally, the rare red-shanked douc langur monkeys. At Monkey Mountain, the tour stops at the 68-meter (233 feet) tall Lady Buddha Statue. The statue overlooks the fishing village below, and visitors can walk through gardens featuring flowers and bonsai trees, plus viewpoints for photos of Da Nang and its coastline. The tour lasts between four and six hours depending on the option selected. It includes either a Vietnamese meal in a local restaurant or no meal, with corresponding variations in duration and price. After the meal or sightseeing, guests are returned to their hotel in Da Nang or Hoi An, or to Da Nang Airport if preferred.
