Top Hoi An Day Trips - page 5

This tour included three very different and impressive destinations: My Son Sanctuary, Ba Na Hills—with the Golden Bridge and French Village—and the Marble Mountains. Although visiting all three places in one day was quite intensive, it was the best option for me because I had limited time in Da Nang and wanted to experience its main attractions. The tour fully achieved that goal and every visit was absolutely worthwhile. My Son Sanctuary was fascinating and rich in history. The Golden Bridge and French Village were also beautiful—almost like visiting Disney at the top of the mountains (1480 meters above sea level). The network of cable cars that takes visitors to the top of the mountain and the French Village is impressive. I was truly impressed by everything that has been created there. Finally, the Marble Mountains offered another remarkable and completely different experience. A very special mention must go to my guide, Tom, who made a real difference throughout the day. He was extremely attentive, helpful and genuinely concerned about my comfort. He constantly provided clear guidance, support and made sure I could enjoy each destination in the best possible way, especially whenever I felt tired. I highly recommend this tour!. If you have more time, you may prefer to visit the attractions on separate days, but if your time is limited, as mine was, this itinerary is an excellent way to see three of Da Nang’s most important attractions. Tom was an outstanding guide and his professionalism, kindness and constant support made the entire experience even more enjoyable.

Lanh was such a wonderful tour guide! He was great at showing us around (this place was huge!) and telling us more about the area and Vietnam. They were also super flexible in picking us up from Hoi An but dropping in Da Nang so we could make a train. Really great day!

Our Guide met us at the appointed time. He took us on an interesting tour of the open market to show us the options for the meals that we would be making later and purchased some of the ingredients. We then took a scooter ride to a small river, where we were joined by an older lady in her basket boat. It was fun as we fished for small crabs. We didn’t eat them, we let them back into the river. Then he picked us up and we went back to his home where he had an open air kitchen. We prepared some very flavorful Vietnamese food. Then returned us back to our hotel. An enjoyable and memorable experience.
