Day 1 : Hoi An - Quy Nhon
Full Program
Departure from Hoi An towards Quang Ngai on the highway (2h drive).
Visit the My Lai village memorial — this village is sadly famous for a massacre carried out by the American Army during the war, considered a turning point of the conflict. Images of the massacre reached the USA and fuelled anti-Vietnam War sentiment.
Lunch in Quang Ngai.
Continue towards Quy Nhon (3h drive), passing through the Sa Huynh salt fields, then accommodation in a resort on a local beach.
Free time to enjoy the beach, or visit the nearby Ong Nui Temple, famous for its Buddha statue facing the sea.
Dinner at leisure and night at the resort.
Day 2 : Quy Nhon - Phu Yen
Full Program
Breakfast at the resort.
Road towards the city center and visit Lang Son Minor Seminary, built between 1841 and 1850, a remnant of the French colonial past. The Minor Seminary was one of the first Catholic printing houses in Vietnam, focused on printing in Quoc Ngu, the Romanised Vietnamese language.
Continue towards the Cham Twin Towers, built in the late 12th century when Quy Nhon was the capital of the Vijaya Champa Kingdom. These Hindu towers were erected as a place of worship and are among the few remaining traces of this once-prosperous South-East Asian civilisation.
Lunch in a restaurant in the city.
Road towards Phu Yen, known for its pristine beaches and laid-back atmosphere.
Arrival at Antique Hill in Phu Hanh village, on a volcanic coast. This hill, considered an archaeological site, has been populated consecutively throughout history by Vietnamese, Cham, and proto-Indochinese peoples, thanks to its rich groundwater pocket — ideal for agriculture.
Start walking up a stone path leading to the top of the hill, where you’ll see agricultural plots surrounded by ancient stone walls and Streblus asper trees (a medicinal plant) planted by the Cham over 500 years ago.
Along the path, hear stories of the past and see ancient remnants — stone houses, tombs, and wells — with stunning views over Xuan Dai Bay as a backdrop.
Enjoy a drink at a scenic spot before returning to the car for a short drive to Volcano Beach Village and accommodation in a beachside hotel.
Dinner at leisure and night at the hotel.
Day 3 : Phu Yen
Full Program
Breakfast at the hotel.
Bicycle tour to discover the fishing villages of Phuoc Dong and Xom Cat. Start in Volcano Beach Village (Phước Đồng, Tuy An), following a small coastal path all the way to Sandy Village (Thôn Xóm Cát).
Park your bike for a short walk up a hill topped by an extinct volcano — also well known by locals for its feng shui properties.
Astonishing views over the ocean, Cu Lao Mai Nha Island, Hon Yen islet, basalt columns, and nearby villages. Take your time at the top to enjoy the scenery.
Get back on your bike and cycle through Sandy Village, passing local agriculture fields, houses, and a school. Stop for local encounters with fishing families.
Fresh seafood homestay lunch in a local family’s house or on the beach.
In the afternoon, boat ride to Cu Lao Mai Nha Island, known for its pristine beach and marine scenery.
Walk the island and see the wild pandanus and Indian almond trees — iconic plants of Pacific coastlines. Continue across small cliffs and strange rock formations, with the never-ending ocean as your horizon — a natural setting from another world.
Free time for swimming and enjoying the island.
Return to shore for an evening at leisure. Night at the hotel.
For the early birds: start the day at dawn (around 4:30-5:00 AM) with a visit to the local fish market right on the beach! Both chaotic and majestic, this daily market still operates the same way it did a century ago — an authentic spectacle, crowned by the sun rising from the ocean behind the Cu Lao Mai Nha islet.
