Hoi An is a dreamy, ancient town only 40 kilometers to the South of Danang. Therefore, it is relatively easy to travel to Hoi An with a wide variety of choices. Here, we will show you how to travel from Danang to Hoi An.
1. By Bus
The cheapest mean of transportation when you are in Vietnam is by bus. Both public bus or private buses are available at low prices between 10.000 VND to 20.000 VND (around 1$). Buses are quite safe and fast, suitable for a very big group.
However, on the way from Danang to Hoi An, there are many beautiful locations which you are not allowed to stop and contemplate. Since they are also used by the local, you may find little to none private space for your group.
2. By Motorbike
Motorbike is a budget choice during your travel to Vietnam since it is definitely the most popular vehicle in the country. You can easily rent a motorbike in Danang City with the price from 80.000 to 120.000 VND (4$ to 6$). The biggest reason why you should try this type of vehicle is that you can stop on the way and visit famous sites such as Marble Mountains, Dragon Bridge and so on.
On the downside, you need to be familiar with the motorbike, research the way beforehand to avoid getting lost and have a decent health. Sometimes, your vehicle will break down and you may have to repair it yourself.
3. By Private car/taxi
This is the easiest way to travel around without worrying about the issues on the way. It is possible to make a few stops at popular locations and rest or traveling around Hoi An. Additionally, some drivers are able to speak English allowing for further communication.
In term of disadvantage, private car/ taxi is known as a little pricey method of traveling, but the bigger your group, the less price drops.
4. By Tour Services
Perhaps the best way for those who just want to enjoy their trip to the fullest is by booking a tour. Tour operators are offering a huge number of choices including not only about the transportation but also accommodation. There are also tour guide to provide helpful information and solve problems on the trip. Even though the itinerary may seem to be a disadvantage for many tourists, it can be custom made according to your preference.
