Getting from Danang Airport

Da Nang

In front of both terminals is a stop for city buses to Da Nang (from 8 000 vnd) and buses to the popular tourist town of Hoi An.

The most popular and relatively cheap mode of transport is taxis and the Grab mobile app. The journey to the Da Nang beach resorts takes about 40 minutes and costs from 133 000 vnd.

Taxi / Grab

Traditional taxis and mobile app taxis are the most widely used transport option.

Taxi stands are in front of both terminals and there are always plenty of cars. However, queues can be up to 20 minutes long at peak times.

Taxis do not run according to a meter, but have set prices to specific parts of the city. However, taxi drivers always try to negotiate an individual price. Payment can only be made in cash.
