Hoi An & Marble Mountains Tour from Da Nang – Full Day

Want to explore beyond the borders of Da Nang, Vietnam? Make a day trip of your out of town excursion by visiting the fascinating Marble Mountains and Hoi An’s Ancient Town.

We’ll pick you up from your accommodations in Da Nang and head to Non Nuoc Village. Also known as Non Nuoc Fine Arts Village, it is set at the foot of the Marble Mountains, and features hundreds of artisans showcasing their work. You’ll find stone and marble statues aplenty as well as household items, utensils and jewelry.

After browsing through the many sculptures at the foot of the mountain, we’ll take a short lift up the Marble Mountains. One of central Vietnam’s famous landmarks, the Marble Mountains are a cluster of five limestone cliffs named after the elements of the Earth. But don’t be deceived by its imposing facade. The mountains themselves have many caves, tunnels, and shrines that you can visit and explore. On this tour, we’ll be passing by the Linh Ung Pagoda, the Tang Chon Cave, Huyen Khong Cave, and Tam Thai Pagoda.

“The caves, pagodas, and gardens were stunning and so peaceful. There’s also a fantastic view of the city from the river viewpoint…  I definitely recommend coming here if you are visiting Da Nang.” — Collette, United Kingdom

After descending the mountain, we’ll head to Hoi An’s Ancient Town. Once a flourishing trading port, this UNESCO World Heritage Site remains well-preserved with old-style shophouses, museums, and temples all open for you to explore. We’ll wander through the weathered streets and pass by bridges, museums, and assembly halls before stopping for a tasty Vietnamese lunch and heading back to Da Nang.

“Very interesting to walk around this centuries-old fishing village and get a taste of ancient life. I love it there.” — Brett, China
