From Da Nang in the afternoon: the Lady Buddha at Linh Ung Pagoda on Son Tra, the caves, towers and stone carvers of the Marble Mountains, then Hoi An's old town, night market and Lantern Street with dinner.

This afternoon tour strings together Da Nang's two great landmarks and Hoi An after dark. It begins on the Son Tra Peninsula at Linh Ung Pagoda, where the Lady Buddha statue stands 70 metres high above the coast.

Next come the Marble Mountains: the stone carvers of Non Nuoc village at their foot, then pagodas, Tang Chon Cave and the River View and Ocean View towers with wide views over the mountains and the sea. In the early evening you reach Hoi An for the Japanese Covered Bridge, old houses and temples, the Nguyen Hoang Night Market and Lantern Street along the Hoai River, followed by a dinner of Hoi An food.
