Ba Na Hills Ticket Prices: The Direct Answer

A standard adult ticket to Ba Na Hills costs 1,000,000 VND (roughly 40 USD) as of October 2026. That covers the round-trip Ba Na Hills cable car, access to the Golden Bridge and Ba Na Hills, the French Village, and entry to Fantasy Park. Da Nang residents pay less, children under 1 metre enter free, and a night combo cuts the price if you arrive after 15:00. Keep reading for every tier, what each one includes, and where to shave money without missing anything good.

Ticket Price Table (As of October 2026)

| Category | Non-Resident | Da Nang Resident | |---|---|---| | Adult (over 1.4 m) | 1,000,000 VND | 650,000 VND | | Child (1 m to 1.4 m) | 800,000 VND | 550,000 VND | | Child (under 1 m) | Free | Free | | Senior (70+) | 800,000 VND | 550,000 VND |

Prices are valid through 31 December 2026 according to Sun World. Confirm on the official Sun World website before you book, as rates are revised annually.

Da Nang residents must present a valid Vietnamese citizen ID or proof of residency at the gate. If you are a long-stay expat or a foreign resident, this discount does not apply unless you hold official Da Nang registration documents.


What Is (and Is Not) Included in the Standard Ticket

Knowing what your ticket covers saves you from surprise upsells at the gate.

Included with every standard ticket:

  • Round-trip cable car rides (valid for unlimited use over 3 days)
  • Golden Bridge access and the surrounding garden walk
  • French Village and all outdoor areas
  • Fantasy Park general admission (rides and most indoor attractions)
  • Linh Phong pagoda and the Linh Tu garden
  • All outdoor cable car stations and viewing platforms

Not included, sold separately:

  • Debay Wine Cellar (historic French-built cellar, extra fee at the door)
  • Wax Museum inside Fantasy Park
  • Specific paid arcade games and premium simulators inside Fantasy Park
  • Food and beverages at any restaurant or buffet
  • Locker and luggage storage (small additional fee)

If you want the wine cellar, budget an extra 50,000 to 100,000 VND per person. Confirm the exact current price at the cellar entrance, as it is managed separately from the main gate.


The Night Combo: Best Deal for Afternoon Arrivals

If you cannot face the crowds that build up from 09:00 to 13:00, the Night Combo is worth serious consideration. Arriving after 15:00 gets you a discounted ticket that often includes a dinner option. The mountain is cooler, the light for photos is better, and the crowds thin out after the day-tripping tour groups leave.

The Night Combo is available at the gate and through third-party booking platforms. Exact pricing changes seasonally, so check the Sun World site or ask your hotel to confirm the current rate before you head out.


Ba Na Hills Cable Car: What to Know Before You Ride

The Ba Na Hills cable car is one of the longest non-stop single-track cable car systems in the world. The ride from the base station to the French Village summit takes roughly 20 minutes and climbs about 1,400 metres above sea level. Your ticket includes unlimited round trips for 3 days, so you can come down for lunch in the city and return in the afternoon if you want.

Cable car operating hours: 08:00 to 22:00 (as of October 2026, confirm locally).

Weather note: Fog is common at the summit, especially from October through February. Operations can be slowed or briefly paused during heavy rain or strong winds. There is no specific real-time indicator on the website, so call ahead or check the Sun World Facebook page on the morning of your visit if the weather looks uncertain. If you are visiting during typhoon season, read our Da Nang Flood and Typhoon Season guide for broader weather context.

Is it scary? The ride is high and long. If you have moderate nerves around heights, the enclosed gondola and smooth operation make it manageable. If severe acrophobia is a concern, that is worth knowing before you commit to a ticket.


Fantasy Park Ba Na Hills: What's Inside

Fantasy Park is the large indoor theme park built into the mountain. It is fully air-conditioned, making it the best part of the complex on a hot or rainy day. General admission is covered by your standard ticket.

What you get with standard ticket entry:

  • Roller coasters and indoor rides for all ages
  • Climbing walls and adventure zones
  • 4D cinema screens (specific screenings may have a small surcharge)
  • Arcade-style game zones (standard games included, premium machines are pay-per-play)

What costs extra inside Fantasy Park:

  • Wax Museum (separate ticket at the door)
  • Premium simulators and VR experiences
  • Photo booths and printed souvenir photos

Families with children will find Fantasy Park takes up most of the day on its own. If theme parks are not your priority, you can skip straight to the French Village, gardens, and Golden Bridge and still get very strong value from the ticket price.

For other family-friendly mountain and nature parks near Da Nang, Than Tai Hot Springs Park is a popular half-day alternative in the same Hoa Vang district.


Buffet Add-Ons: Are They Worth It?

Several tour operators and the Sun World site itself offer lunch or dinner buffet combos bundled with your ticket. These typically add 200,000 to 400,000 VND per person on top of the base ticket price.

When a buffet combo makes sense:

  • You are visiting as a group or family and want convenience over choice
  • You are on a tight schedule and do not want to spend time searching for a restaurant
  • You are visiting on a weekday when queue times at the buffet are shorter

When to skip it:

  • You are a solo traveler or couple with flexibility
  • You prefer to eat lunch in Da Nang city before heading up, saving 200,000 to 400,000 VND per person
  • You are on the Night Combo and eating dinner down in the city afterward

The on-site buffets are decent rather than remarkable. For far better food value, eat before you go. A bowl of pho at Co Ba Pho Bo in Hai Chau will cost a fraction of the buffet price and taste better.


How to Get to Ba Na Hills

Ba Na Hills is about 30 to 45 minutes from central Da Nang in normal traffic. It sits in Ba Na Commune, Hoa Vang District.

Grab or taxi: The most flexible option. Expect to pay 300,000 to 400,000 VND one-way from the city center. Book a return Grab from the car park before you go up, or arrange a driver to wait.

Shuttle bus: Several operators run round-trip shuttles from 2 Thang 9 Street and major hotels. Danaticket is one authorized distributor offering ticket-plus-shuttle packages. Prices and departure times vary by season, so confirm with your hotel or the operator directly.

Motorbike: Possible but the mountain road involves steep bends and heavy tour-bus traffic. Not recommended for less experienced riders.

From Hoi An: Add roughly 30 minutes to the journey. The shuttles that run from Da Nang often have hotel pickup options for Hoi An guests at higher prices.


How to Buy Ba Na Hills Tickets

At the gate: Available daily. No pre-purchase required, but queues at the ticket window can be long on weekends and Vietnamese public holidays.

Online via Sun World: Book directly on the Sun World website for convenience. You receive a QR code by email or app, no printing needed.

Third-party platforms: Sites like Danaticket and major OTA platforms sell combo packages including shuttles. Compare carefully: some bundle the buffet automatically, which pushes the price up.

WOW PAY: Sun World introduced WOW PAY in October 2026 to handle in-park payments and streamline entry. Top it up at the gate or online to cover extras like the wine cellar, locker rental, and premium game credits inside Fantasy Park.


Money-Saving Tips Before You Book

  • Go on a weekday. Weekend crowds are noticeably heavier and queue times for the cable car are longer.
  • Arrive early or go on the Night Combo. The 08:00 opening is the quietest window. After 15:00 on the Night Combo rate is the second-best option.
  • Skip the buffet add-on unless convenience is the priority. Eat in Da Nang before or after.
  • Check your height before queuing for children. The 1-metre free entry rule is strictly enforced. Children between 1 m and 1.4 m pay the reduced rate.
  • Use your 3-day cable car validity. If you are staying in Da Nang for several days, splitting the visit across two half-days stretches your value further than trying to do everything in one exhausting full day.
  • Book the shuttle as a package only if you do not have a Grab account. Individual Grab rides are usually cheaper unless the shuttle includes hotel pickup from an inconvenient location.
  • Golf separately. The Ba Na Hills Golf Club is a separate booking and is not connected to the theme park ticket. Budget for it independently if golf is on the agenda.

Ba Na Hills vs. Other Day Trips: Quick Comparison

| Attraction | Entry Cost (Adult) | Travel Time from Da Nang | Best For | |---|---|---|---| | Ba Na Hills | 1,000,000 VND | 30 to 45 min | Families, first-timers, cable car fans | | Than Tai Hot Springs | Lower, check locally | 30 to 40 min | Relaxation, hot springs | | Mikazuki Water Park | Check locally | 25 to 35 min | Water slides, beach access |

For a quieter nature day trip, the Bach Ma National Park guide is worth reading before you decide.
