A Wonderful Cultural Experience at Marble Mountains
I had a wonderful experience visiting Marble Mountains. The scenery was beautiful, with impressive caves, temples, and stunning views from the top. I especially enjoyed exploring the caves and learning more about the local culture and history. It was a peaceful and interesting experience, making it a great place to visit in Da Nang.

Excellent guide
Our tour was great! It was interesting and a good way to see some of the area. The best part was our guide, Mike. He had lots of great information and was entertaining. He sure knows his stuff.

Enjoy the history, the culture and the climb!
We visited Monkey Mountain first as this was an afternoon tour and a very hot day. We saw some monkeys and the lady Budha was very impressive. From here we visited the marble factory and experienced the impressive craftsmanship of the stone masons. From here to the Marble Mountain and the limestone caves. Very significant history to hear about and wonder at. Many stairs but truly worth it. Our tour guide Tin was helpful, knowledgeable and interesting. We wanted to climb to the top and he was very helpful. A great half day tour if you are in Hoi An or Danang

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 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 Hoi An is not rushed.
Is Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 102 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour?
+
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 Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour?
+
Around 36 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 Hoi An 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 Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Marble Mountain - Am Phu Cave - Monkey Mountains small Group Tour 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 Hoi An 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 Hoi An?
+
On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hoi An Ancient Town Walking Tour with a Local, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking, Hoi An Cooking Class(Local Market, Basket Boat,Fishing &Cooking). 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 Hoi An?
+
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 Hoi An?
+
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.
