The mountains’ sheer, porous limestone is punctuated by caves and tunnels, which are fitted with spectacular Buddhist and Hindu shrines. Of the five mountains, only Mt. Thuy is accessible to tourists. It has the highest summit and a stunning, panoramic view of the coast, Da Nang, and the other Marble Mountains.

We had a great tour with Quyen! She was very attentive and has so much knowledge. Her explanations were clear and thorough, and she explained both Hinduism and Buddhism in a really interesting way. Her English is excellent, which made everything easy and fun. She also shared a lot of interesting stories about Vietnamese culture and history. We really enjoyed the whole tour and highly recommend her!
We booked a half day trip and visited two museums in Da Nang and the Linh Ung Pagoda with Billy’s team. From the tour booking to the final drop off back to our hotel, we had the best experience! Our guide, Tai was punctual and very knowledgeable. The car arranged for us was really comfortable too. Tai shared about the history and culture of Vietnam with us and made it so relatable to us. The cool military vehicles outside the museum was rly interesting for my little one. We loved visiting the pagoda and saw some monkeys too. For dinner, our guide helped to find us a table at a restaurant we wanted to visit. So glad we could make it there! Thank you for a wonderful experience in Da Nang and we highly recommend Billy Travels for your visit to Vietnam!
After having a wonderful trip with Billy's team the previous day we booked again with them and went to monkey mountain and marble mountain. Billy was very knowledgeable and my kids aged 10 and 13 learned a lot from him about the temples, caves, and history. This was a very enjoyable half day trip and we would highly recommend Billy and his team.
We had an incredible day out exploring some magical sights of central Vietnam. My Son Sanctuary and Marble Mountain. Our guide Quyen was amazing. Her enthusiasm and passion for her country, its history and making sure visitors get the most out of the tour made the day. Highly recommend if you are visiting the area.
We joined this tour yesterday and it turned out to be just two of us , so it felt like a private VIP experience. Our guide Quyen was outstanding — knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly attentive. She shared great insights and took amazing photos for us. Everything was smooth, relaxed, and memorable.
It’s a wonderful Vietnam experience with Billy as a tour guide. He was punctual, informative and flexible. We learned so much about Vietnamese history and culture. Thank you Billy.
We had an informative and fun afternoon with Nhat, and were really pleased to see the Lady Buddha and Marble Mountains and learn about them. Nhat was lovely and is a fantastic photographer as well - thoroughly recommend.
Billy was a fantastic guide and we learnt so much from just one morning with him. He gave us recommendations at the end for other places to go in both Hoi An and our upcoming destination. Even if you decide this particular tour isn’t for you, I would highly recommend looking at other tours that Billy and team offer, as we were greatly impressed!
Billy is v kind and understanding...he explained every detail to us about the history behind every place we went. Any Singaporean looking for tour packages you should give Billy a chance. His team is also very responsible and patient too... With them we indeed had a great time in Danang...
Billy was very passionate and informative about the places we went to, he did not only show us around, he explained hidden stories behind a lot of the monuments. I would highly recommend the tour with him.
