Why Choose the Han River Cruise?

The Han River Cruise offers a fresh perspective of Danang. As your boat glides along the peaceful Han River, you'll witness the glowing city skyline, beautifully lit bridges, and the lively energy of the city by night.

These cruises are available every evening, but what makes Han River Cruise + Weekday Fire-Breathing Dragon Show special is the timing. The fire and water show typically happens on weekends, but Danang has introduced weekday fire-breathing shows during the peak tourist seasons, giving more people a chance to enjoy this dazzling spectacle without the weekend crowds.

What to Expect on the Cruise

Your cruise experience begins with boarding a modern, comfortable boat at Han River Port. Depending on the cruise provider, you'll enjoy amenities such as rooftop viewing decks, live music, cold drinks, and even dinner options.

As the boat sails under the city’s major bridges - including Tran Thi Ly Bridge and Thuan Phuoc Bridge - guests are treated to shimmering reflections on the water and a cooling breeze. But the highlight is without a doubt the Weekday Fire-Breathing Dragon Show, when the boat slows down to give everyone a perfect view of the fire and water spectacle.

The Legendary Dragon Bridge Performance

The Dragon Bridge in Danang is already a marvel of architecture and engineering, but what truly brings it to life is its fire-breathing and water-spraying show. For about 5 minutes, this massive dragon sculpture breathes fire, followed by powerful jets of water that delight the crowd. Seeing this up close from a river cruise boat — with no need to battle street crowds — is a truly unforgettable moment.

This combo experience is now available on select weekdays, a major upgrade for visitors who stay during the week or want to avoid weekend hustle. That’s why Han River Cruise + Weekday Fire-Breathing Dragon Show has quickly become one of the most searched-for experiences in Danang.

Tips for Enjoying the Best Experience

  • Book early: Cruises tend to fill up, especially on nights with the fire show.

  • Check the show schedule: While weekday shows are now available, they may not run daily — consult your cruise provider.

  • Bring a light jacket: It can get breezy at night on the river.
