Loi is the best - Monkey mountain and Marble mountain is really wonderful. It's rich in culture and history and I felt very lucky to experience it. But make no mistake, the best thing about this tour is Loi. He is such an amazing guide, warm, funny and knowledgeable. We ended up asking him to take us to Ba Na hills a few days later and we had the best time. We stayed in touch for the rest of our time in Vietnam and he helped us with recommendations for both places to eat, where to go, what to do and even with medicine when I got sick. The truest treasure in the whole of Vietnam is Loi. Book this tour! You simply will not regret it.

The best tour company in Danang/ Hoi An - David was so lovely! I originally booked a food tour with him in Danang and ended up booking nearly an entire day of activities with him 2 days later in Hoi an. Super friendly, we went to and did the coolest stuff and ate the best food and I had the best experiences! Highly recommend 👏🏼👏🏼

David, the hidden gem of Da Nang/Hoi An 💎 - David is an absolute gem of a tour guide! His warm, chatty nature made our tours of Da Nang's culinary delights and the Marble Mountain, including a visit to Lady Buddha, incredibly enjoyable. He exudes enthusiasm, politeness, and a reassuring demeanor that made us feel entirely safe under his guidance. David's depth of knowledge and passion for his home shone through, making every moment of our journey rich in cultural insights. The Lady Buddha visit, in particular, surpassed our expectations, evoking the atmosphere of a European piazza. Additionally, the safe driving and spotless car provided by his driver added an extra level of comfort to our unforgettable experience. 5 hundred stars!

Great experience - Loi is very friendly. Unable to go to monkey mountain because of using a scooter with no gears. However marble mountain, fishing village, and largest bhudda in da nang were great. Highly recommend this excursion.

Worthwhile experience - Loi was a great host for our day in Da Nang. He is friendly and personable and made us feel like VIPs. We visited the Marble Mountains on a scooter journey. It was my first time being a passenger on a scooter and Loi was a careful driver, this part was really fun for me. I am so glad we chose to have a guide at the marble mountains as we would not have known anything about the history of the place or how best to navigate the site without Loi. It was a hot day (by my standards!) when we went and Loi provided multiple cold water bottles which were very appreciated! Loi taught us about life for the local fisherman and we were able to see the bamboo boats up close. We also visited the Lady Buddha up close which we didn’t realise was included so that was a big bonus! and then Loi took us to some of the most spectacular viewing points to see over the city. We also saw lots of monkeys!! Loi then took us to a hidden away cafe that was super cute and we had the most delicious coconut coffees. Loi shared lots of recommendations about local restaurants and foods to try and told us stories about his life. He is a natural host and has great English skills. He also took lots of photos for us which was great! Would highly recommend booking Loi for a jam packed and memorable day out and to learn about Da Nang from a lovely local!

Tour of a LIFETIME! - This experience truly was one of my favorites when visiting Vietnam for the first time. Loi is a one of a kind soul who shows how much he cares for and loves his job by giving you an amazing tour. He also really cares about your comfort and safety. He is very passionate, friendly, and welcoming, greeting you with big smiles. I really felt safe with him the entire time. The hike up Marble Mountain is a little strenuous and slippery (but still doable from somebody who doesn’t hike often), so make sure to wear a good pair of sneakers. The views were so worth the little trek. Loi enjoys sharing his knowledge of these beautiful and sacred places. He does a great job of sharing stories of the people, their religion, and culture in Vietnam. He also takes insane and gorgeous pictures of you. I didn’t even have to ask! He knows where all the great spots are as he loves to take pictures of you enjoying the moment. Afterwards, he brought me to probably one of the cutest cafes I’ve ever been to (speaking as a former barista who’s been to plenty of coffeehouses) and we ended the day with a nice iced egg coffee. When in Vietnam, right? As a first time solo female backpacker from NY, I’m truly grateful for this experience, and I’ve learned so much from him. I can’t recommend him and his tour enough!! Thank you for everything Loi!! Until next time my friend!! 😁

Great trip! - The trip was awesome! Me and my spouse got a private tour and we were picked up by Loi and his brother with motorbikes. Loi had lots of knowledge about the places we visited and he was really eager to take pictures of us as well. The places he took us were really special and moving around with motorbikes was exciting and fun. At the end of the day we sat down for a nice coffee and we got some great reccommendations about places to eat and visit. There was no hurry at any point. We had a great day, thank you!

Georgeous tour - book it! - loi really is a great tour guide who inspires with knowledge, humor, great places and stories! I can absolutely recommend the tour with him and I more than enjoyed it! I saw really great places and learned a lot on this very personal tour! It's a bit like a friend showing you his favorite places and Loi can really tell a lot about Vietnam's culture, Buddhism, and also history. And of course it is always a highlight in Vietnam to live the country on the back seat of a bike! The cafe we ended with a great coffee is a really nice place to be and in the end he gave me anfällst good recommendation for dinner! Don‘t hesitate - book this tour!
