Itinerary
Day 1
Full-day guided transfer from Da Nang to Sun World Ba Na Hills with timed visits to Golden Bridge, Le Jardin D'Amour, French Village, Fantasy Park and buffet lunch. Total tour duration ~6 hours 30 minutes; hotel pickup and drop-off included.
Hotel pickup in Da Nang / Transfer to Ba Na Hills
Meet your driver for an air-conditioned transfer from central Da Nang to the Ba Na Hills cable car base.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm your hotel pickup location and a 15-minute pickup window the night before travel; have your booking or ID ready for the driver.
- Carry a light jacket — mountain temperatures are cooler than Da Nang city; dress in layers for comfort.
- Bring a small daypack with snacks, water, and any medications; there is limited time for stops en route.
Ba Na Hills cable car — ascent to summit
Arrive at the cable car station and ride the record-breaking cable car up to the Ba Na Hills summit area. Allow time for boarding and brief queuing.
Tips from local experts:
- Keep young children close when boarding and exiting the cable car; follow staff instructions for safety.
- If anyone in the group is prone to motion sickness, sit facing forward and have anti-nausea measures ready.
- Have a light jacket and camera ready; the ride offers expansive mountain views and cooler air at the summit.
Golden Bridge (Cầu Vàng) visit
Walk the iconic Golden Bridge and enjoy panoramic views from the summit. Guided time to photograph and explore the immediate vantage points.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring a child harness or hold small children while on the bridge; railings can be busy with other visitors.
- Mid-morning visits are generally cooler and less crowded than midday — use the allotted time for photos first.
- Use non-slip shoes; some stone surfaces and steps can be uneven or damp from mountain mist.
Le Jardin D'Amour gardens
Stroll through the themed Le Jardin D'Amour gardens — a short, family-friendly walk with photo spots and shaded rest areas.
Tips from local experts:
- There are stepped paths between garden sections; use stroller or carrier depending on your child's mobility and stamina.
- Bring sunscreen and a hat — some garden areas have limited shade during midday.
- Use short rest breaks on benches to keep younger children comfortable and hydrated.
French Village — walk and viewpoints
Explore the French Village square, viewpoints and accessible paved streets ideal for family photos and a relaxed walk.
Tips from local experts:
- The French Village has paved areas suitable for strollers; avoid steep lanes with a stroller and carry children if needed.
- There are public restrooms in the village; use them before longer activity blocks to save time.
- Keep an eye on children near viewpoint edges and staircases; some areas have steps and cobbled surfaces.
Buffet lunch at Ba Na Hills (family-friendly options)
Enjoy a buffet lunch with a range of local and international dishes at one of the Ba Na Hills dining areas (buffet included with this tour). Time allocated for relaxed family dining.
Tips from local experts:
- Choose milder dishes and plain staples for younger children; ask staff about allergy-safe options before serving.
- Bring a small snack or familiar food for children who are fussy; buffet service can sometimes be busy at peak times.
- Allow time for a restroom/change stop immediately after lunch; family facilities are located near main dining areas.
Fantasy Park (indoor family entertainment)
Free time inside Fantasy Park to enjoy family-friendly attractions, arcade games and indoor play areas. Time allocated for short rides or supervised play (entry and ride availability follow venue rules).
Tips from local experts:
- Check height and age restrictions at individual rides; keep children with adults when queues form.
- Bring cash or small bills for locker/arcade use where needed; store larger bags in lockers before play.
- Plan a meeting point and a time to regroup — Fantasy Park can be busy and spread out for small children.
Cable car descent and return transfer to Da Nang
Board the cable car to descend to the base, then transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle back to your Da Nang hotel for drop-off.
Tips from local experts:
- Allow a final 10–15 minutes to gather personal items before boarding the descent cable car.
- Use restroom facilities at the base station before the return trip; facilities are limited on the coach.
- Charge phones and cameras during the transfer; you may want photos of the final mountain-to-city views.
