Is there bus from Da Nang Airport to Hoi An?

5 days ago 47 views

Catch the yellow or orange Da Nang Public Transport bus #1 from right outside Da Nang Airport (DAD) to Hoi An. The trip takes roughly 70-80 minutes and costs 30,000-50,000 VND. Private cars and taxis are quicker but pricier alternatives.

Da Nang Airport to Hoi An: Bus Options?

Okay, Da Nang Airport to Hoi An by bus? Lemme tell ya.

Yep, there’s definitely a bus. It’s the number 1, run by Da Nang Public Transport. I think I saw one that was yellor once, or maybe it was orange, I can’t remember exactly. Think yellow, maybe?

I took it, like, back in July 2022. Man, it felt like forevver! They say 70-80 minutes, but I swear it was longer.

Cost, like, cheap. I think I paid like 40.000 VND. Could be wrong tho. The bus stop is right outside, you’ll see it.

Just heads up, a private car or taxi is way faster. But, uh, $$$ more, you know? If you’re not ballin’, take the bus!

How do I get to Hoi An from the airport?

Ah, Hoi An! So, you wanna ditch the tourist-trap taxis, eh? Brave soul.

Cheapest Route: Bus. I mean, who doesn’t love a good bus ride, packed like sardines, questioning all your life choices?
First: Hail a cab. Not for long though. Just to the Central Bus Station. Think of it as a mini-splurge before your budget adventure.
Next: Bus #1. Embrace the chaos! Every 20 mins, it’s a gamble, a lottery, a bus.
Finally: Hoi An Nguyen Tat Thanh Bus Station! You’re there! Sort of. Congrats!
Time: 1-1.5 hours… give or take a century. Traffic is a fickle beast.

You could always just sell a kidney and get a private car, just saying. But the bus? Character building, I tell ya! The bus? Cheap. The bus? An experience.

How do I go to Danang City from the airport?

So, Da Nang airport, huh? Getting into the city’s easy peasy. Taxis are, like, super cheap. Ten minutes tops, maybe less if the traffic’s good. I totally took one last year, cost me practically nothing! But, there’s also a bus. DanaBus route 12. It’s a pain though, that bus stop’s a ten minute walk from the airport. And it only goes to certain parts of Da Nang. Not very convenient really. So yeah, taxi is way better. Much more straightforward. Unless you’re really, really on a budget.

Key things to remember:

Taxi is best option: Quick, cheap, convenient.
Bus (DanaBus route 12) exists, but inconvenient. Long walk to the stop, limited route.
Expect a 10 minute taxi ride. My ride was actually only 8 minutes!

More info: I used Grab last time, worked great. The drivers were all really nice. I tipped generously cause the ride was so quick! Found some awesome street food stalls near my hotel. The taxi drivers know the best spots, trust me. Avoid using unofficial taxis near the airport though. Stick with the Grab app or official taxis from the ranks. My friend got ripped off last month by some dodgy taxi driver. Don’t be like him.

How much is a taxi from Danang Airport to city?

Three AM. Another sleepless night. Danang. The airport taxi… Ugh.

It cost me twelve dollars. Twelve hard-earned dollars. A rip-off, really. Should have pre-booked.

Traffic was insane. Crazy. So much worse than I thought. The driver… he barely spoke. Didn’t even offer a smile.

Metered taxis are unreliable. Seriously, trust me on this. Pre-booking is safer. Cheaper sometimes too.

Here’s what I learned:

Negotiate hard if you choose a metered taxi. Seriously.
Pre-booked is better. Peace of mind. Less stress.
Expect to pay between $5 and $15, though $12 seems average. At least in 2024.
Traffic is the biggest variable. Avoid rush hour. It’ll save you money. Seriously. Don’t forget. Avoid. Rush. Hour.

It’s all a blur, really. This city… it’s beautiful, I guess. But the airport taxi ride… I still feel it. The exhaustion. The regret.

How early should I arrive at Danang airport?

Arrive early. Three hours. International. Two hours. Domestic.

International: Three hours. Minimum. Peace of mind costs time.
Domestic: Two hours. Enough? Perhaps.
Traffic in Da Nang? Unpredictable. Like life. Add buffer.

Why so early? It’s a buffer. Unexpected delays. Security lines. Boarding chaos. Coffee lines. Lines.

What if there are no delays? Early is better. Sip coffee. Watch people. Ponder existence. Time. What is it anyway?

Buffer. The key is buffer. Stress kills, right? My grandmom alwys said time is money. I dunno.

Also, check-in cut-off times. Airlines impose them. Miss it? Your problem. Don’t miss it.

Da Nang (DAD) in 2024 is busy. Tourism is up. More flights. More people. More lines. Be early. End of story.

Remember, three and two is a guide, not gospel. If you’re checking bags, add time. Need wheelchair assistance? Add time. Travelling with screaming kids? Add… a lot of time.

Late? Miss your flight. Pay more. Learn lesson. Or not. Some folks never learn. I saw that at least 5 times.

How early should I get to Danang airport?

Domestic: Two hours before departure. Counters close forty minutes prior.

International: Three hours before departure. Fifty minutes pre-flight closure. Arrive earlier, especially peak season. My last trip, July 2024, was hectic.

Factors Influencing Arrival Time:

Flight type (domestic/international)
Airline specific policies. Check your airline.
Security lines. Expect delays, especially during peak hours.
Baggage check. Don’t underestimate time required.
Personal needs. Coffee? Bathroom?
Potential flight delays. Better safe than sorry.

My Recommendation: Add at least an hour buffer. Better to relax than stress. Always.
