“We had the most amazing trip thanks to Kevin our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and we went to many different places. The tour was a little longer than expected so expect to be tired after a long day but there was a lot of breaks and sitting down. Overall I’d definitely recommend to anyone visiting da nang as we saw a lot in a day and Kevin was able to recommend some more sights and restaurants in the area where locals also enjoy. He also helped up through markets and pointed out which ones were cheaper and had a good price. Can’t thank Kevin enough. Please be reminded…”

Then headed into Ho A for a walking tour visiting some of the key historical sites before the obligatory evening boat ride on the river. The city was packed and it felt very touristy but our guide Hoang was great and very insightful on the history of the region and the positive impact of tourism in the area. Also gave us a fabulous tip for dinner - the Hai Cafe.”
