The Monkey Mountain wildlife tour is a half-day on the Son Tra Peninsula, the forested headland beside Da Nang, to watch red-shanked douc langurs in the wild, with birds, reptiles and scenic stops as conditions allow.
It is a private tour by car, about five hours, starting at any time you prefer. Your guide is an experienced local naturalist and brings a spotting scope; you are welcome to bring your own optics as well.
This is the daytime half of our Da Nang programme. After dark, the Da Nang herping tour looks for reptiles, amphibians and nocturnal wildlife, and the two can be combined or built into a multi-day itinerary to find more species.
Who this tour is for
Guests who want to see the red-shanked douc langur in its natural habitat, travellers interested in birds, reptiles, insects and coastal forest biodiversity, and guests in Da Nang or Hoi An who want a focused daytime nature experience.
What to bring
A hat, flat shoes or sandals, a waterproof jacket, long trousers, a camera, sunscreen and insect repellent.
Safety and responsible herping
Wildlife is observed, not approached or fed. Routes may change based on weather, access rules and animal activity. Every tour carries a first aid kit and runs under a written emergency protocol.
