Photograph the Golden Bridge at 1,414 meters before the tour groups show up

This guided Ba Na Hills tour from Hoi An or Da Nang starts with early hotel pickup and a drive to the cable car station, then a 25-minute ascent to the Golden Bridge—a 148-meter wooden walkway suspended 1,414 meters above sea level with views across Da Nang City. The day includes the French Village, a classical music performance with complimentary German beer, games in Fantasy Park, and lunch at a local restaurant before return to your hotel.

The Experience

The 6:30am pickup means you reach the Golden Bridge while the light is still soft and the wooden deck is nearly empty. The cable car—one of the longest in the world—takes 25 minutes to climb, and by the time you step onto the bridge's Merawan wood floor, most tour groups are still in their hotels. You get the photographs without the crowds pressed against the railings, and the views of Da Nang spread below you stay uncluttered.

After the bridge, the day moves through the French Village—a collection of colonial architecture, churches and a Time Square area—and then down to the second cable car station. You'll pass through the Wine Cellar and visit Linh Ung Pagoda before settling in for a classical music performance or violin show, which comes with a complimentary glass of German beer. The pacing is set by the guide, not by you, so the transitions between stops happen without navigation or decision-making on your part.

Fantasy Park, the third-largest indoor games zone in Vietnam, opens up in the afternoon with 4D and 5D films and a range of games if you want to spend time there. Lunch at a local restaurant and a rest period come before the cable car descent and the drive back to your hotel. The whole day runs about seven hours from pickup to drop-off, which leaves the early evening free if you want to explore Hoi An's Old Town or rest at your accommodation.
