Description: Upon arrival at Đà Nẵng Airport and clearing all customs procedures, please proceed to the exit gate where your guide will be waiting to transfer you to your hotel for check-in. The remainder of the day is at leisure for you to explore on your own.
Description: Today you will travel over the Hải Vân Pass and visit the ruins at My Son Holy Land. My Son is considered to be one of the best preserved Cham structures in Vietnam. This site is a must see for those people who are interested in architecture and ancient civilisations and is now one of six UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Vietnam. We then return back to Hội An for some relaxation at the hotel. Water will be supplied during the tour.
Description: We depart to Cẩm Thanh, a coconut forest referred to as Bảy Mẫu, which has been growing for 200 years. The number of coconuts, which were brought by south western immigrants, completely matched the favourable soil and water conditions of the central area. Those who visit Cẩm Thanh for the first time, have an impression that is hard to fade. The forest is hundreds of hectares of coconuts and stretches all the way to Cửa Đại. We then return back to Hội An for a walking tour. From the 16th to 18th Centuries, Hội An was a thriving international commercial port for the Chinese, Dutch, French, Japanese, Portuguese and Arab traders. Some of the buildings in the narrow streets have remained unchanged for more than a century. We enjoy a half day walking tour through the narrow winding streets of the Ancient Quarter visiting Chua Ong Pagoda, Chinese Assembly Halls, the 200 year old Tam Ky Ancestral House and the Japanese Bridge. Cold Towels and Water will be supplied during the tour.
Description: After breakfast at your hotel, you will be met and transferred to the Airport for your onward journey or departure flight home. • Alternative Hotel Options Palm Hotel 5* or similar, Hội An 1 x Superior Garden View Room with Breakfast Daily included. Supplement: AUD $89.00 per person per night • Option Extras (Pricing on Request) Bà Nà Hills with the Golden Bridge After being picked up from your hotel get ready for a visit to Bà Nà Hills with the Golden Bridge. Highlights such as the Man Tha fishing village, Vọng Nguyệt Hill, the Le Jardin d'Amour flower garden, Linh Ung Pagoda and others. We then continue to visit the fascinating Cham Museum, the famous Mỹ Khê Beach and the Marble Mountains, five stone hillocks, once islands, that now rise sharply from the surrounding rice fields. Riddled with caves and shrines, they are said to each represent one of the five elements of the universe. Cooking Class at Trà Quế Village On this tour, you will depart for Trà Quế Herb Village. Upon arrival, take a short stroll around the vegetable garden and listen to the history of the village. Then join in some gardening activities in preparing the land, fertilising with seaweed, raking the ground, sowing, watering and picking vegetables. Enjoy a foot soak before getting to prepare lunch at a local restaurant inside the village. Join the cooking with ‘Tam Hữu’ spring roll, ‘Bánh Xèo’, a local pancake made by the people in the middle region of Vietnam. After your morning excursions and lunch, you will learn how to harvest and wrap the vegetables. • Travel Information Visa Requirements: Please ensure your passport is valid more than 6 months from the date of return for every country you are visiting. Please also ensure there is sufficient space in your passport to allow for all immigration procedures, taking note that some South East Asian countries take up a full page for the visa sticker and need yet more space on a separate page for entry and exit stamps. Kindly note that visa service is not included in our proposal. Please contact Europe Holidays for any visa service or guidance. Please note the following general information is subject to change concerning visas. For Vietnam, a one month single entry visa is available upon arrival with a pre-arranged visa invitation authorisation letter. The visa invitation letter processing time is two weeks, rush service may be available at additional cost. Trip and Travel Insurance: The tour price does not include personal insurance. Travellers are highly recommended to purchase Travel Insurance upon commitment of the booking. Europe Holidays can assist with your travel requirements. Travel Advice for New Year: If your dates of travel fall during Tet, the Vietnamese New Year (Jan 31 – Feb 04, 2025), travellers who are visiting larger cities like Saigon or Hanoi may encounter empty streets and deserted parks as Vietnamese people return to their home town to celebrate the New Year with their families. Most businesses are closed during TET holiday.
