Not worth the cost
Felt like cattle being herded all day. Went to 2 spots for snorkelling but Leah less time as they just shuffled us off to another group while the rest of our group stayed. Snorkelling was just ok. Lots of time wasted.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the tour felt rushed and that the group coordination affected your snorkeling time. We’ve shared your comments with our team to improve the timing and overall experience for future guests.

The 2 snorkeling sites...
The 2 snorkeling sites are not worth doing. Site one - could see nothing, site 2 much better. Boat driver very rude. Guide was very nice.

Did Not Deliver the Itinerary - Look elsewhere for your tours
Did the Cham Island Village Visit and 1 snorkel spot tour a few days ago at a cost of $42aud. The itinerary spoke of a "Culture and History Discover" which included a visit to a Pagoda, The Ancient Well, and the Seafood Markets. We visited none of these sites and instead were given 15 minutes to have a look around the first island then taken to the 2nd island to be transported to an overcrowded snorkelling spot for an hour followed by a plentiful lunch where all of the hot dishes had gone completely cold sitting outside for goodness knows how long. Then there was nothing to do but sit on the beach for over an hour awaiting our return speedboat. Complete rip off.

Cham island is better without tourists
Overall, it was not bad. The organization is quite terrible, everything is messy and not clear. I would recommend to skip the village tour as there was nothing to do. Snorkeling was good, but that’s all. Staff was not really friendly and was not speaking English (only a few words like «Hi»). I would recommend to go by yourself and not taking the tour.

A great day out and great snorkelling
We booked this trip as it allowed snorkelling in two different locations. This was good because there were different things to see in each. Snorkelling was great and the lunch provided was delicious and very substantial. Would definitely recommend.

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Da Nang.
How much does Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup cost?
+
Prices start at $15 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Da Nang usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Da Nang is not rushed.
Is Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Da Nang, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Da Nang can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Da Nang and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cham Island Day Tour | Optional 2-Spot Snorkeling & Hotel Pickup start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Da Nang within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Da Nang?
+
On Outty we rank every Da Nang experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Golden Bridge and Ba Na Hills Small Group Tour, Marble Mountains - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountain Sunset tour, Lady Buddha, Marble Mountains, Coconut Jungle & Hoian City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Da Nang?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Da Nang?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
