Description

Embark on a day-long journey through two UNESCO World Heritage Sites — the ancient My Son Sanctuary and the charming old town of Hoi An — while exploring Da Nang’s cultural highlights along the way. Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, this full-day tour offers a perfect balance of history, culture, cuisine, and scenic beauty. Begin with a hotel pickup in Da Nang or Hoi An. Start the day with a visit to the Marble Mountains, a sacred cluster of five marble and limestone hills representing the five elements. Climb to the summit for panoramic views of Da Nang, explore hidden caves, and admire ancient Buddhist sanctuaries. Next, visit the Cham Museum and dive into the rich heritage of the Champa Kingdom with the world's largest collection of Cham sculptures, featuring exquisite carvings of Hindu deities like Shiva and Ganesha. Continue to the Da Nang Cathedral, a French Gothic structure built in 1923, beloved for its unique color and photogenic charm. Then, treat yourself at the renowned MAROU shop, home to Vietnam’s finest artisanal chocolates. Sip on a chocolate drink and grab some beautifully packaged souvenirs. Enjoy a Vietnamese lunch at Madame Lan, located in a charming colonial-style villa. Sample authentic Vietnamese dishes made with fresh ingredients. After lunch, head to the My Son Sanctuary, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the mystical My Son ruins, the former spiritual capital of the Champa Kingdom (2nd–13th century). Walk among ancient Hindu temples tucked into the jungle, admire intricate carvings, and uncover the stories behind this once-thriving civilization. Afterward, head to Hoi An for a walking tour of the ancient town. Stroll through the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An, a picturesque port town known for its yellow walls, historical architecture, and vibrant culture. Your guide will take you through the Old Town, a living museum of international influences from centuries of trade. Visit the Japanese Covered Bridge (Lai Viễn Kiều), a historic symbol featured on Vietnamese currency. Discover the town’s multicultural roots, with footprints from Japanese, Chinese, and Western settlers. Marvel at the glowing lanterns as the town transforms after dusk. For guests selecting the dinner plan, enjoy a refined Vietnamese meal at Sakura, featuring Hoi An’s signature dishes in an elegant setting. Alternatively, cap off the evening with a cocktail at Sky36, Da Nang’s premier rooftop bar. Take in the stunning panoramic views of the city skyline and coastline by night.
