Private Car From Da Nang Airport to Hoi An
After your flight arrives at Da Nang International Airport, your private driver will be waiting for you according to your flight information.
You do not need to arrange another transfer after landing. We monitor your flight and adjust the pickup time if your flight is delayed, then take you directly from the airport to Hoi An.
This service is particularly convenient for travelers arriving in Da Nang and continuing immediately to Hoi An, especially families, couples, and small groups with luggage.
Unlike a shared shuttle, the car is reserved for your group only, so you can leave the airport when you are ready rather than waiting for other passengers.
How Your Da Nang Airport Pickup Works
1. We monitor your flight
When booking the Da Nang Airport pickup to Hoi An, please provide your airline and flight number.
This allows us to identify whether you are arriving at the domestic or international terminal and monitor your scheduled arrival time.
If your flight is delayed, we can adjust the pickup timing accordingly. You do not need to rush out of the terminal simply because the original flight schedule has changed.
If you are unsure which terminal you will arrive at, just send us your flight number and we will check it for you.
2. Meet your driver at the airport
Da Nang International Airport has separate arrival areas for domestic and international flights, so your pickup location depends on where your flight arrives.
Domestic Arrivals – Terminal 1 (T1)
If you are arriving on a domestic flight within Vietnam, your driver will meet you at the Domestic Arrivals area of Terminal 1 (T1).
After collecting your luggage, follow the signs toward the public arrivals area. Your driver will wait at the agreed meeting point with a name board, making it easier to identify your private car.
Domestic arrival process:
- Land at Da Nang Airport Terminal 1 (T1).
- Collect your checked luggage.
- Exit into the public arrivals area.
- Look for your driver with your name board.
- Contact us via WhatsApp if you cannot locate the driver.
- Load your luggage and leave directly for Hoi An.
International Arrivals – Terminal 2 (T2)
If you are arriving on an international flight, you will arrive at the International Passenger Terminal (T2).
After immigration, baggage collection, and customs, continue to the public arrivals area. Your driver will wait for you at the agreed meeting point with your name board.
International arrival process:
- Land at Da Nang International Airport Terminal 2 (T2).
- Complete immigration procedures.
- Collect your checked luggage.
- Pass through customs.
- Exit to the public arrivals area.
- Meet your driver with your name board.
- Contact us via WhatsApp if you need help finding the meeting point.
- Load your luggage and travel directly to Hoi An.
3. Load your luggage and leave directly
Once you meet your driver, your luggage will be loaded into the vehicle and you can start the journey to Hoi An.
There is no need to change vehicles or wait for other travelers.
4. Door-to-door drop-off in Hoi An
The driver takes you directly to your hotel, resort, homestay, or private address whenever the location is accessible by car.
If your accommodation is located in a vehicle-restricted area of Hoi An Ancient Town, your driver will take you to the nearest practical drop-off point. Our local travel team can also contact your hotel reception in advance and ask them to arrange a golf cart to pick you up, so you do not have to find your way to the hotel with your luggage.
What the Journey From Da Nang Airport to Hoi An Is Really Like
The distance from Da Nang Airport to Hoi An is only around 30 km, but the actual driving time depends more on traffic and your final accommodation than on the distance itself. In normal conditions, allow roughly 40–50 minutes.
After leaving the airport, the car travels south through Da Nang before continuing toward Hoi An. The route is straightforward, so most travelers simply use this as a direct transfer rather than adding sightseeing after a flight.
Traffic can become slower when entering Hoi An, particularly around busy periods and the roads approaching the Ancient Town. For this reason, a 40-minute journey should not be treated as a fixed arrival time when you are planning a hotel check-in or another connection.
If you have just arrived after a long international flight, a direct transfer is usually the simplest option: meet your driver, load your luggage, and go straight to your accommodation.
A Local Tip: Your Hoi An Hotel May Not Be Directly Accessible by Car
This is something first-time visitors often do not know.
Parts of Hoi An Ancient Town are pedestrian or have vehicle-access restrictions, particularly during designated walking-town periods. Hoi An has also expanded pedestrian areas beyond the traditional Old Town streets.
Therefore, “door-to-door” does not always mean the car can drive directly to the front door of every accommodation inside the Old Town.
If your hotel or homestay is on a restricted street, we will take you to the nearest practical point where the car can legally stop. Your driver can explain where to meet or walk from there.
This is especially important if you are traveling with:
- Large suitcases
- Children
- Elderly travelers
- Several pieces of luggage
If you send us your exact hotel name or address when booking, we can check the location in advance and advise you about the most practical drop-off point.
Private Airport Transfer vs. Shared Shuttle
A private car is useful when you want to go directly from the airport without following another company’s schedule.
With a private car:
- Your driver is waiting for your flight
- No shared passengers
- No waiting for a shuttle to fill up
- No multiple hotel drop-offs
- Direct transfer to Hoi An
- Flexible departure after you collect your luggage
- You can request a reasonable toilet, coffee, or refreshment stop if needed
For travelers arriving after a long international flight, this can make the transfer considerably simpler.
Da Nang Airport to Hoi An Private Car Price

Need Help Choosing the Right Vehicle?
Choose your vehicle based on the number of passengers and the amount of luggage you are carrying. If your group has several large suitcases, we recommend selecting a larger vehicle for extra space and a more comfortable journey.
Traveling with a larger group or have specific requirements? Contact us and our team will recommend the most suitable option for your trip.
Our standard service includes a private driver rather than a tour guide. The driver’s primary responsibility is to ensure a safe and comfortable journey, so he can communicate in basic English for essential travel arrangements. Google Translate can also be used when needed.
Things to Know Before Your Da Nang Airport Transfer
Should You Add Sightseeing on the Way?
For a normal airport arrival, we recommend treating this as a transfer rather than a sightseeing tour.
You have just landed, collected your luggage, and may have spent many hours traveling. Going directly to Hoi An is usually the most comfortable option.
However, if your flight arrives early and you want to make use of the journey, you can request a private sightseeing transfer.
Possible stops include:
- Marble Mountains
- My Khe Beach
- Linh Ung Pagoda with the tallest Lady Buddha
- My Son Sanctuary
- Golden Bridge on Sunworld Ba Na Hills.
The sightseeing option takes longer than a direct transfer and comes with an additional fee, which we will clearly confirm with you when booking. We recommend arranging it in advance, especially if you have a fixed hotel check-in time or other plans in Hoi An.
What Happens If Your Flight Is Delayed?
✔ You do not need to worry about arriving at the airport at exactly the original scheduled time.
✔ We use your flight information to monitor the arrival and adjust the pickup accordingly.
✔ If there is a significant change to your flight schedule, our team can also communicate with you through WhatsApp.
✔ The important thing is to provide the correct flight number when booking.
What If I Have a Lot of Luggage?
Vehicle size should be chosen based not only on the number of passengers but also on the amount of luggage.
For example, four passengers with four large suitcases may be more comfortable in an SUV or minivan than in a sedan.
If you have:
- Large suitcases
- Baby equipment
- Golf bags
- Oversized luggage
- Several pieces of checked baggage
please tell us when booking so we can assign a suitable vehicle.
Can I Stop for Coffee, Food, or a Toilet Break?
Yes. The standard airport transfer is a direct journey, but you can ask your driver for a short toilet, coffee, or refreshment stop along the way.
If you would like to stop for a meal at a restaurant, an additional fee may apply depending on the location and extra time required. We will confirm the cost with you in advance.
For longer sightseeing stops, please arrange them when booking so we can plan the route, travel time, and vehicle accordingly.

Travel Tips for Your Da Nang Airport to Hoi An Transfer
✔ Have your hotel address ready: Hoi An has many small streets and similarly named accommodations. Sending us the exact hotel name or location helps us plan the drop-off correctly.
✔ Keep your phone connected after landing: Wi-Fi and mobile service can help you contact the driver if you have difficulty finding the meeting point.
✔ Do not rush out of the airport: Collect your luggage, clear immigration and customs if applicable, then contact the driver if needed. Your pickup is arranged around your flight rather than requiring you to run outside immediately after landing.
✔ Allow extra time during busy periods: The distance is short, but traffic near Da Nang and Hoi An can increase the actual journey time.
✔ Tell us about special luggage in advance: The number of passengers alone does not determine the right vehicle.
✔ If your hotel is inside the Ancient Town, check the access point: Some streets have restrictions on motor vehicles, so the practical drop-off may be just outside the pedestrian area.
