Stop At: The Marble Mountains, Hoa Hai, Ngu Hanh Son, Da Nang 550000 Vietnam

8:30 Your guide and jeep will meet you at your hotel. We depart Hoi An and indulge in the rich cultural and scenic diversity of this beautiful region.

9:00 Our first stop is at the Marble Mountains. Its five mountains are named after five elements: metal, fire, wood, earth and water. They are home to numerous tunnels, pagodas, caves and many grottoes ready to be explored. Walk the stone stairs to the top of Thuy Son (Water Mountain) for a panoramic view of the nearby countryside.

Stop At: Son Tra Mountain (Monkey Mountain), Da Nang Vietnam

10:00 After exploring the mountains we return to the Jeep to continue our journey to Monkey Mountain.

Enjoy the ocean views from sea level, because we are about to climb the mountain to enjoy the panorama of majestic ocean at the top.

10:30 Returning to the Jeep we begin our ascent up Monkey Mountain. The roads become bendy and steep. Here, we experience the lush tropical vistas of the peninsula, home to rare flora and fauna and maybe a monkey or two, rising 642 metres above the coast line. We also stop and visit a helipad that was used by the Americans in the Vietnam war. The panoramic views of Danang from the helipad are stunning. Have your cameras handy.

Got picked up in the US army jeep, a good way to travel in the heat. Got taken to the Marble mountain Buddhist Pagoda first up, an amazing place to go as some of it was in the mountain in caves, quite a few steps here, quite hot, lucky had a fan. Then off for a drive up to the Hai Van pass great scenery on the way and at the top. Then back down, then to go up Monkey Mountain where the radar things were used during the war by the US but now by the Vietnamese, didn't see many monkeys but on the way back down stopped into the lady Buddha pagoda built only a few years ago, this was very nice and a huge complex. The views from here were great. Then taken for lunch at this restaurant, lovely meal, lots of small dishes, we both enjoyed it sitting looking out onto the beach, beautiful sands here. Then back to our hotel, a good day out and a different mode of transport, the jeep still goes well.
