TIEN SA PORT TO HOI AN PRIVATE TOUR

Tien Sa Port to Hoi An the Morning Part

After meeting your driver and local guide at the confirmed pickup point, your Tien Sa Port To Hoi An Private Tour begins with a scenic drive along Da Nang’s coastline. Before continuing to Hoi An, you will explore two of the city’s most distinctive cultural and natural landmarks.

The first stop is Linh Ung Bai But Pagoda, one of three pagodas in Da Nang that share the Linh Ung name. Located on the Son Tra Peninsula, the pagoda offers sweeping views of the coastline, Da Nang Bay and the city skyline.

The most recognizable feature is the 67-meter-tall Lady Buddha statue facing the sea. Your guide will introduce the pagoda’s Buddhist architecture, spiritual significance and peaceful surroundings. You may also spot wild monkeys in the area, but visitors should avoid feeding or approaching them.

The journey continues to the Marble Mountains, a cluster of five limestone and marble hills named after the five elements of Eastern philosophy: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

Accompanied by your local guide, you will explore natural caves, historic pagodas, Buddhist statues, and scenic viewpoints hidden throughout the Water Mountain. Some sections involve stone steps and uneven surfaces, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

The sightseeing order and time spent at each attraction can be adjusted according to your cruise schedule, weather conditions, and the group’s walking ability.

In the Afternoon

Around 12:00 our Hoi An Private Car will transfer you to a lovely local restaurant to enjoy the famous Hoi An specialties. After taking a short break, we will keep doing the Hoi An to Tien Sa port Private Tour. Hoi An Ancient town is a must-visit destination in Vietnam with rich culture, history as well as romantic views.

Because it used to be an international trading port to the world so Hoi An is a great blend of cultures. There are a lot of highlight attractions in Hoi An from other countries that we will explore such as the Japanese Bridge, Assembly halls, Hoi An Market, Hoi An old houses, etc. Plus, Hoi An is also a shopping paradise with thousands of tailor shops, souvenir shops, lantern making shops.

Japanese Covered Bridge – a great architectural heritage of old Japanese businessmen built in the 16th century. It is not only a bridge but also a temple where the Japanese worship the Northern God. Our local guide will tell you how special it is as well as how to burn some incense to offer to the Japanese God.

Then, continue the Tien Sa Port to Hoi An Private Tour, and we will visit the Tan Ky Old House. It is a special ancient merchant house with 3 distinct architectural styles: Japanese, Chinese, and Vietnamese. You will admire the unique architecture, the Feng Shui setting, as well as valuable furniture. Tan Ky Old House is one of Vietnam’s precious National Heritage sites.

After visiting the 200-year-old merchant house, we continue to the most beautiful assembly hall among the Chinese, the Phuc Kien Assembly Hall (Fujian Assembly Hall). This is the place where the Chinese can support their community business, and reduce their homesickness as well as an important religious place.

Some travel tips

If you have time, you should visit the Hoi An Silk-Making Factory. This is the only place in Hoi An where you can learn all the stages of making real silk. Also, you can admire a lot of handicraft work, such as wood carving, lantern making, embroidery, and clothing making.

Enjoy the Hoi An Basket Boats, a wonderful place in Hoi An Countryside, where you can go fishing with the locals in the Cam Thanh water coconut forest. Plus, Hoi An is a perfect place to practice your photography skills.
