Waddle into the fascinating world of our most endangered primates, off the beaten track and away from the tourist traps. In an easy, 3 hour-stroll, across twisting mountain road, scenic terrain, we will go into secret spaces that only the Red-Shanked Douc Langurs aka Rare Monkeys know. From encountering sprightly off-springs during breeding-season (March to July) to seeing the adults or alpha male, or just to enjoy the sight of monkeys being monkeys, you’ll learn how to tell a "she" from a "he", how to tell their age, and also participate in real-time research by helping to collect data about the monkey we encounter. We will meet a supporting cast of forest creatures; birds, colorful butterflies, plants, or sometimes mongoose. On the trail we travel, I'll find chances to have a conversation with local animal photographers. We can hear the insights and see their amazing photos from them for a better understand of the monkey . Not only we go finding rare animals but also have opportunity to see an amazing hidden sceneries of Monkey Mountain, secret beach, altogether will combine to make our trip full of surprises. Our journey ends where we start.

The monkeys are a must-see if you visit Da Nang. What a treat to see them in a beautiful area new the city and watch the sun get low over the bay. The monkeys are fascinating to watch. Even if we hadn’t had the good fortune to see 3 different groups, including one family of about 15 including 2 babies, the ride through the jungle on the back of a motorbike would have been worthwhile. It’s a bonus that the temperature in the mountains is about 20 degrees fahrenheit cooler than the city, so it’s a lovely break from the heat. Brendan was a fantastic guide, and the entire group were so knowledgeable. We learned all about the monkeys and their habitat. I could have watched the monkeys all day!

We had an amazing experience! It was the most fun memory we had! They explained to us what they didn't know in an easy way, and we were very relieved to have a helpful staff! When I visited Da Nang again, I wanted to join this tour! I was also interested in understanding biodiversity, and wanted to learn more about it in the future!

This is my second time booking this. Great experience riding up through the mountain. Stopping along the way for snacks with Bao and his team. The group is amazing at what they do and have such great hospitality. Excellent English as well so don't worry about communication. Seeing the endangered monkeys was such a memorable moment and I highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Da Nang.
