There are several caves, caverns, pagodas, many stairs and 2 spectacular viewing points. they are also home to several buddhist sanctuaries and hindu grottoes which are much visited places of worship for the local population.
    At the foot of the mountains there is a traditional marble fine art village which is over 300 years old. You will admire its talented craftsmen, their creativity and their uniquely beautiful works.

Marble Mountains and Monkey mountain from Hoi An - We booked this day trip and it was quite amazing! Lee was an excellent guide and he answered all our questions with clarity. We started from Hoi An and they dropped us at Da Nang at the end of the tour, which was perfect because we were sleeping there.

Great trip. - We booked this trip from our hotel and it was fantastic...our tour guide Thuy was really informative and kept us hooked all the way through the trip. Marble mountains was beautiful the caves were amazing... although if a little unsteady on your feet you can wait at the bottom of 1 of them as there is a little climb but the view from the top was amazing. Monkey mountain was great we saw lots of the wee monkeys so cute and even saw a random pig. Food with the Vietnamese family was beautiful. The trip around the marble workshop was interesting.

Amazing tour with Mrs. Thuy - This was a great tour, led by our tour guide Thuy who took her time to explain everything we needed to know. It was quite a challenge to climb some parts of Marble Mountains as it was quite hot outside but it was totally worth it! Monkey Mountains were also breathtaking, with a view on the mountains and the sea at the same time, the lunch we had at a local family place was also delicious. I recommend 100% this experience! Thanks again Mrs. Thuy!😊

A Must Do! - There was so much to see, Marble Mountain was amazing but Monkey Mountain was breathtaking. Our tour guide TinTin, kept us all together, had many historical facts and interesting stories. He helped make the trip so much more memorable.

So engaging and well organised!!! - We are just driving back to our hotel after finishing an amazing tour with Quyen “Our Queen” tour guide. Quyen thoroughly looked after us, whilst we explored Marble Moutain, Am Phu Cave and Monkey Mountain. This trip was great for us ‘oldies’ but also engaging enough to keep 2 teenagers off their screens. Queen’s knowledge and humour was very engaging. This tour is well organised and Quyen kept to time. We weren’t hurried but we also weren’t hanging around for long periods. Lunch was spectacular, and a chance to chat about the morning before heading to Monkey Mountain. Every moment was a picture-taking moment. Memories forever. Thanks to our driver and Queenie for the day! Highly recommend. Nathan, Nicole, Jack and Sophie 🇻🇳💕
