A basic adult ticket to Ba Na Hills costs VND 650,000 for local residents and VND 1,000,000 for everyone else, and foreigners living in Da Nang pay the higher price. Go early, because crowds are the main thing that spoils the day. If you can, take a taxi for that early start, since the free Wow Bus leaves Da Nang at 8:30 or 9:30.

Ba Na Hills ticket prices and opening hours

The basic ticket covers the round-trip cable car and most of the attractions. What you pay depends on where you live, your age and, for children, your height.
| Basic ticket | Local resident | Non-local resident |
|---|---|---|
| Adult | VND 650,000 | VND 1,000,000 |
| Senior (over 70) | VND 550,000 | VND 800,000 |
| Child (1-1.4m) | VND 550,000 | VND 800,000 |
Children under 1m get in free, while taller than 1.4m means the adult price.

The cable car starts around 8:00 and runs until about 19:00. If you want a buffet lunch, the lunch combo adds one at restaurants such as Bon Mua, Taiga or Bharata. For an adult that costs VND 1,000,000 as a local and VND 1,300,000 as a non-local. For an evening at the top, the Ba Na by Night combo includes a dinner buffet for VND 1,050,000 per adult, and you board the cable car from 15:00.
If you are 18 to 25, ask for the FIRST 18-25 prices, which put the cable car ticket at VND 500,000 whether you are local or not. Bring original photo ID that shows your birth year.
A ticket is valid for 1 day by default. You can upgrade it at the ticket office to 3 consecutive days, and it may cost extra.
The local price is only for people with permanent residence in Da Nang or Quang Nam. You need original photo ID at the gate, such as a citizen ID card or a passport. A residence card does not make a foreigner local.
What to see at Ba Na Hills

Your ticket opens the Golden Bridge, Moon Castle and Fantasy Park. It also includes one small treat, a choice of Sun Kraftbeer, French fries or a French pastry.
Some extras cost more, including the Debay Wine Cellar, the Light Museum, the climbing game and the speed slide. A Wow Pass is VND 300,000 and gives you a priority lane at certain areas.

Who Ba Na Hills suits (and who should skip it)

Ba Na Hills suits you if you want many attractions in one day. Wear sneakers or low sandals, because you will walk quite a lot. Skip it, or go very early, if crowds bother you, as weekends already feel packed by 8:00.

Free Wow Bus

The cheapest way up is the free Wow Bus, and you do not need a Ba Na Hills ticket to ride it. Register a day ahead through the QR link. Morning buses leave the Novotel on Bach Dang at 8:30 and 9:30, and the bus back leaves Ba Na Hills at 16:00. It also stops at Bien Dong Park and opposite My Khe Beach. It is a trial service, so check it is still running before you plan around it.
Taxi, tour or public bus
A taxi is about VND 350,000 to 500,000 one way. A tour costs about VND 1,200,000 to 1,800,000 per person, so the free bus plus a basic ticket is much cheaper. DanaBus route 03 also runs from the airport to Ba Na Hills, with a fare of up to VND 30,000.
When to go and how long to stay
Arrive around 7:30 to 8:00, before the Golden Bridge fills up. The cable car takes 20 to 25 minutes to reach the top. The other good window is 15:00 to 16:00, once most visitors have finished their tour. If you came on the Wow Bus, skip that window, because your bus back leaves at 16:00.

Nearby and how to combine it

Back in the city, the Cham Museum and Marble Mountains both have their own guides. For an evening plan, the Dragon Bridge fire and water show starts at 9pm on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and major holidays. More trips are in the day-trips list.
Before you go
- Bring original photo ID if you want the local price.
- Register a day ahead if you are taking the Wow Bus.
- Leave outside food and drinks at home.
- Pack a thin long-sleeved layer, a hat and an umbrella.

I was so disappointed with Ba Na hills. I should have done more research beforehand I guess. The hand bridge is a perfect example of Instagram vs reality. It was so crowded. I also didn't realize it was a theme park. As parks go it's beautiful but not my thing. I honestly probably enjoyed the cable car ride up more.
Whatsoutthere4U
Oh I was there last week. I expected crowds. I expected expensive touristy shops but it was well worth the price of admission just at the architecture. Not all painted plywood to look like early America like Disneyland. The coaster was fun. The gardens were beautiful. The views spectacular. The bridge was ridiculously crowded could not move! Damn instagram. It was a one time thing. I spend about 5 months a year between da nang and Nha Trang.

I can understand everyone’s opinion about the tackiness of the architecture the gaudiness of the shops, and crowds around the Golden Bridge, but the cable car ride was quite a memorable experience. Views from over a mile above sea level were spectacular. I’d recommend it to anyone who hasn’t done it. However, the caveat is to take a Grab there as a group and purchase tickets. That way is a LOT cheaper than purchasing a tour and you’re on your own timeline.

I don't really know the answer except to say there certainly won't be a line of Grab bikes waiting on people to come out. I think you would need to prearrange one. We took a car when we went as a group once. The driver came back to DaNang while we were there. We texted him when we started down the mountain, and he came and got us. Alternatively, you could rent a bike and ride out on your own. I've done that several times.

We visited Ba Na Hills last month and it was surreal. If you go expecting to be in a theme park that has some real cheesy stuff in it, it's a good time. We looked around a bit more than we should have and there are lots of abandoned rooms, multiple empty buildings, and the mountain coaster was under repairs. There were full parts of this massively popular park that were completely empty and we had it to ourselves. It's also on the top of a mountain. Really really strange vibes but my partner and I had a great time. Is it for everyone? No. Also only learned about Sun Group's debacles after going to Ha Noi. We wish we had gone to Hoi An but our trip got screwed up before we landed in the country and it got cut. We had some mixed experiences in Da Nang and felt it was a spot catered to domestic tourists.

We did 2 nights in Da Nang and that was enough. One of the days we went to Marble Mountain/Hoi An, the other we spent around Da Nang (going to the big temple, local restaurants, the markets. If we wanted to go swimming, we would have needed a third night.
