A Must Do! - There was so much to see, Marble Mountain was amazing but Monkey Mountain was breathtaking. Our tour guide TinTin, kept us all together, had many historical facts and interesting stories. He helped make the trip so much more memorable.

So engaging and well organised!!! - We are just driving back to our hotel after finishing an amazing tour with Quyen “Our Queen” tour guide. Quyen thoroughly looked after us, whilst we explored Marble Moutain, Am Phu Cave and Monkey Mountain. This trip was great for us ‘oldies’ but also engaging enough to keep 2 teenagers off their screens. Queen’s knowledge and humour was very engaging. This tour is well organised and Quyen kept to time. We weren’t hurried but we also weren’t hanging around for long periods. Lunch was spectacular, and a chance to chat about the morning before heading to Monkey Mountain. Every moment was a picture-taking moment. Memories forever. Thanks to our driver and Queenie for the day! Highly recommend. Nathan, Nicole, Jack and Sophie đŸ‡»đŸ‡łđŸ’•

A work out!! But worth it! - I really enjoyed my tour. Our guide Misa was so knowledgeable and friendly. She answered any questions I had and made the tour very enjoyable. Definitely recommend! And if you have Misa as your guide you’re in for a treat!! P.s. it’s a lot of steps so bring your water bottle!

Rainy but worth it. - Rainy but worth it. Tin was a really nice tour guide, told us a lot of information through the tour and always waited for us to take a pictures or just look around. It was raining a lot so maybe pack a second set of clothing so you can change in the middle or after and I would recommend bringing hiking shoes (because its kind of slippery in the caves and they do not get wet so quickly as sneakers.

Wonderful trip to marble mountains! - Our tour guide Lucky was great. He was very happy to answer questions about the mountains, history and Buddhist culture. The marble mountains were beautiful to visit, there are quite a few stairs up and down the mountains and we had sore legs afterwards - being 50 yo office workers! But it was worth it with the views, the caves and architecture. The lunch was nice too, served at a local restaurant.
