DESCRIPTION:
Our professional tour guide and driver will pick you up OUTSIDE the gate (Please provide us with your pick up & drop off time as detailed on your cruise ship schedule).

Please understand there is the port fee if the driver and tour guide picks you up from the ship.
The drive from Tien Sa, Da Nang to our first stop at My Son Holy Land takes about one hour and 15 minutes. Here, you will marvel at the ancient ruins which date back to the Champa Kingdom (4th-15th Centuries) After arriving at My Son you will have approximately one and a half hours to explore with your personal licensed guide, who will provide you with in-depth information on the history of each temple, as well as help you to take lots of stunning photos.
You will then depart for Hoi An, surely one of the most popular and picturesque destinations in Vietnam.Hoi An is a world heritage site located along the Thu Bon River. The Ancient Town has remained unchanged for centuries and was used as an international trading port of the Champa Kingdom to import and export wood, gold and silk. At that time trade fairs were held, attracting merchants from Holland, Portugal, China and Japan but once the Thu Bon became too shallow, the port was moved to Da Nang sometime around the 18th Century.
The drive to Hoi An will take around one hour. On arrival you will enjoy a delicious local lunch. After lunch, you will begin an enjoyable walking tour of this pretty town, during which your guide will show you the Japanese Bridge explaining the history of this famous landmark. You will also visit a traditional house, a Chinese Assembly Hall and a cultural and historical museum. You will then have time to stroll around the town and buy souvenirs or some beautiful paintings for which Hoi An is famous.
On the way back to the ship, we will stop you at My Khe Beach (formerly known as China Beach) in Danang where the US Base was located. Here you can take a swim in the South China Sea and have a refreshing beer.
