The part of Hoi An most sought-after by visitors is its incredibly photogenic mustard-coloured Old Town, a UNESCO-listed collection of beautifully preserved buildings; some of these still function as private homes, while a total of 22 are open to the public and operate largely as museums. Of particular interest are historic merchant residences, some of which offer short guided tours (the Old House of Tan Ky is among the most interesting), and Chinese assembly halls used for gatherings and celebrations by individual ethnic groups. Visiting each attraction will require one of the 5 admission slips that come with a general Hoi An Ancient Town entry ticket.

For the most dramatic perspective of Victoria Falls, nothing rivals the aerial views available through scenic flights. Livingstone's Adventures, the operator for these experiences, provides various options to suit different preferences, from brief helicopter flights to extended ones featuring dramatic low-level passes through the Batoka Gorge. These flights not only showcase the falls' full grandeur but also reveal stunning vistas of surrounding islands and local villages. While requiring a minimum of two passengers and representing a considerable investment, the unrivalled panoramic views make this experience truly unforgettable and well worth the expense.

Mount Thawr holds profound significance in Islam as the site of the Cave of Thawr (also Sawr, Thour or Thur), where the Prophet Muhammad and his companion Abu Bakr sought refuge for three days during their migration to Medina. Located approximately eight kilometres from Mecca, the mountain rises 750 metres. While the cave itself is the destination, reaching it requires a steep and strenuous climb. For pilgrims, the arduous ascent is a powerful act of devotion, undertaken to visit a place where a pivotal event in Islamic history, marked by divine protection, unfolded.

The Museum of Contemporary art or M HKA is located in the bustling Zuid district, among the galleries and the lively cafés. Explore a fascinating collection of modern art in the old converted corn silo. The museum features a mural by Keith Haring in its cafeteria.
