【One, Da Nang Airport ~ Round Trip ~ Hoi An Ancient Town Center】:
1. Using Grab for a taxi will set you back around 340,000 VND, which is quite expensive and not the most budget-friendly option; [Right Arrow]
2. Grab motorbike rides cost around 150,000 VND, but they aren’t ideal on rainy ☔️ days, if you have a lot of luggage, or if you prioritize safety and comfort; [Right Arrow]
[Thumbs Up] Our homestay’s five-seater private car, priced at 250,000 VND, offers a more luxurious experience.
The driver will be waiting at the airport exit with a sign bearing your name [Red Heart] (Feel like a VIP [Selfie])?
【Two, Da Nang Train Station ~ Round Trip ~ Hoi An Ancient Town Center】:
1. A Grab taxi from here costs about 360,000 VND, making it a pricey choice; [Right Arrow]
2. Grab motorbikes are around 150,000 VND, but they come with the same drawbacks as mentioned before; [Right Arrow]
[Thumbs Up] Opt for our homestay’s private car, just 250,000 VND, for a smooth and comfortable ride [Red Heart].
【Three, Da Nang Bus Station ~ Round Trip ~ Hoi An Ancient Town Center】:
1. A Grab taxi here will also cost approximately 360,000 VND, which is on the higher side; [Right Arrow]
2. Grab motorbikes are slightly more at 160,000 VND, and again, not the best choice in rain, with lots of luggage, or if you value comfort and safety; [Right Arrow]
[Thumbs Up] Our homestay’s private car service, available for 250,000 VND, ensures a hassle-free journey [Red Heart].
【Four, Shuttle Bus 130,000 VND, we can help you book [Red Heart]】
Pick-up points in Da Nang include Da Nang International Airport, the end of the Dragon Bridge Museum, and along the road by My Khe Beach. Drop-off points are within the central area of Hoi An Ancient Town, or a location of your choice. While the price is reasonable, the Shuttle Bus operates on a fixed schedule and stops, limiting flexibility. It’s a moderately recommended option [Red Heart].
My Vietnamese girlfriend, who is originally from Hoi An Ancient Town, and I run a charming Lagoon homestay in the heart of Hoi An. We have an intimate knowledge of both Hoi An and Da Nang. If you need any tips on local delicacies, must-see attractions, or anything else, feel free to reach out. You’re also warmly invited to stay at our homestay, where you can enjoy a cup of tea and some coffee [Rose][Red Heart].
I think the private car option sounds like the best balance between cost and comfort. It’s great that your homestay offers this service since both price and convenience matter when traveling between cities. I wonder if there are any other shared shuttle services available for cheaper rates?
Thank you for your feedback! You’re right; a private car does strike a great balance. As for shared shuttles, there are a few options available, though they might be slightly less comfortable. I recommend checking platforms like Grab or local bus services for even more affordable choices. Happy travels, and let me know if you have more questions!
