Loi was a great host for our day in Da Nang. He is friendly and personable and made us feel like VIPs. We visited the Marble Mountains on a scooter journey. It was my first time being a passenger on a scooter and Loi was a careful driver, this part was really fun for me. I am so glad we chose to have a guide at the marble mountains as we would not have known anything about the history of the place or how best to navigate the site without Loi. It was a hot day (by my standards!) when we went and Loi provided multiple cold water bottles which were very appreciated! Loi taught us about life for the local fisherman and we were able to see the bamboo boats up close. We also visited the Lady Buddha up close which we didn’t realise was included so that was a big bonus! and then Loi took us to some of the most spectacular viewing points to see over the city. We also saw lots of monkeys!! Loi then took us to a hidden away cafe that was super cute and we had the most delicious coconut coffees. Loi shared lots of recommendations about local restaurants and foods to try and told us stories about his life. He is a natural host and has great English skills. He also took lots of photos for us which was great! Would highly recommend booking Loi for a jam packed and memorable day out and to learn about Da Nang from a lovely local!
