8 days in Da Nang & Phu Quoc Island Itinerary

A curious mix of developed beachfront tourism and untouched local city life, Da Nang presents an often-overlooked but authentic and welcoming picture of central Vietnam.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Lady Buddha and Da Bao Real Leather. Change things up with these side-trips from Da Nang: Hoi An (Minh Huong Communal House, Japanese Covered Bridge, &more). There's much more to do: take your sightseeing to a higher altitude at Son Tra Mountain, explore the striking landscape at The Marble Mountains, make a trip to Marian Shrine of the Lady of Tra Kieu, and take a leisurely stroll along Love Bridge Da Nang.
