Monkey mountain Lady Buddha and Marble mountain
Excellent day exploring monkey mountain and lady Buddha Tim our guide was incredible and patient offering to take photos for the group to ensure we had the best experience. The marble caves were a sight to behold with a rich history. We finished off the tour with a beautiful Vietnamese lunch of pancakes where we were taught how to construct the pancake into a fresh spring roll with beauful fresh herbs followed by a noodle dish. So delicious.

Great Tour
We went on a rainy day, so we all got a little wet. Bring a poncho and/or an umbrella during the wet season for inside the caves. Jenny was lovely and chatty! She did a great job of explaining the importance of different landmarks and local sites. Dinner was delicious!! Great experience!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review and recommend. We are so glad that you had enjoyed the trip and had great time in Bana hills. Let us know if you come back Danang again, we would like to make it memorable.

Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Da Nang.
How much does Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves cost?
+
Prices start at $26 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 Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 397 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Da Nang, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves?
+
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 Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves?
+
Around 139 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Monkey mountain-Huge Lady Buddha-Marble mountains & Am Phu caves 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, Easy Rider Motorbike Tour via Hai Van Pass From DaNang/HoiAn/Hue, Linh Ung Pagoda - Marble Mountains - Hoi An Ancient Town Daily Ingroup 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.
