Despite the hot weather in Da Nang, we bought a map of Marble Mountains and then climbed up and down without using the elevator from 3pm. Reaching the highest point through a cave, we had the great view on Danang city. Other attractions around are temples and caves, which are not too significant. Refreshments are available on all the way... More

If you have a small amount of time and a long list to visit this would be the place to drop from your short list! I live in Da nang so I understand the constant barrage of requests by the tour and Moto drivers to visit "marble mountains", but trust me in saying to save your money and visit the... More

Booked driver from our hotel to take us to The Marble mountains. We took the Elevator up - VND15,000 ( per trip per person ) and hike down. There is an entrance fee of VND15,000 per person. There are two exit / entrance gates apart from the elevator. Spectacular views - can find pagodas, shrine and many caves to explore.... More

We did not bother with the elevator, took the stairs. Unless elderly or frail, you will be ok. Very interesting buildings and caves. Awesome views. We had a local woman with a torch take us through a back exit of one of the caves which involved some climbing. She even took photos for us. We were happy to give her... More

After climbing to the Perfume Pagoda near Hanoi I was prepared for another sweaty hike - but the Marble Mountains were an easy jaunt. Good views of the area from the many vantage points. The cave is pretty neat with a fun history from the war. More

Marble necklaces D If you want good deals, then do NOT go to the big shops where all the BIG marble statues are, seriously they will rip you off by 150x the price you can get it at the smaller shops. More

While i enjoyed the hike and climb, we were ill prepared. No one informed us that the elevator to the top is not working, so folks who brought their babies and toddlers were in for a rude shock. Also, there are unofficial tour guides touting their services. Even if you didn't engage them, they will follow you and be helpful... More

We dropped by the Marble Mountains on our way to Hoi An from Danang. We took the elevator up to the top. The receptionist at the ticket entrance may get you to buy the "guide book" - don't waste your money on it. There's quite a nice view of the sea from the top. We didn't spend much time there... More
