Hoi An is more about culture than history lah

Day 1: City Exploration

Morning: My Khe Beach and relaxing by the sea
Afternoon: Linh Ung Pagoda and Lady Buddha
Evening: Explore the Dragon Bridge area and enjoy dinner along the Han River

Day 2: Hoi An Ancient Town

Full-day trip to Hoi An, exploring the charming ancient town and enjoying local cuisine

Day 3: Son Tra Peninsula

Morning: Visit Son Tra Peninsula and explore Linh Ung Pagoda
Afternoon: Hike or drive to the top of Son Tra Mountain for panoramic views
Evening: Dinner at a local restaurant on the peninsula

Day 4: Cultural and Historical Sites

Day 5: Relaxation and Departure

Departure from Da Nang

Feel free to adjust the itinerary based on your interests and preferences. Enjoy your trip!

Hi, Malaysians get 30 days visa free to Vietnam, correct? Do we need to fill in any form/online/app? Thanks

no forms needed. Immigration software are more advance than Malaysia. It can record all your passport details when the officer swipe and they do away with manual forms and app

Halo,

Planning for a short getaway 4D/3N to Danang + Hoi An in April
So far skeletal plan as below
Day1 (Friday): Reach noon, head straight to Hoi An for hotel, go for the night market
Day2 (Saturday) : Walk around Old town, go one of the beach(?),Hoi An Memories, see lantern release.
Day3 (Sunday) : Early checkout Hoi An, find a way to get to Ba Na Hills, go back Danang for rest of the day, Dragon Bridge at night
Day4 (Monday) : Walk around Danang(?) , flight back evening.

Feasible? Feel like i'm missing out some stuff in Danang, but not sure what else I could add in.
Skipping Marble Mountain, assuming its....Batu Caves?? (sorry if im wrong)

day 4 maybe can do Hue trip

What your thought on
day1,2 based at Danang
day3,4 based at Hoi An
?

Day4 flight is around 4pm. Not sure if there enough time for a morning trip to Hue?
I usually pack light (no luggage), so should be able to breeze through customs i guess.
Actually if i decide to do Danang first, I could insert Marble Mountain on the last day (going to have to figure out the transport arrangement then)

Day1 (Friday): Reach noon, Walk around Danang(?),Dragon Bridge at night
Day2 (Saturday) : Early checkout Danang, get to Ba Na Hills, head to Hoi An in the evening and go for the night market
Day3 (Sunday) : Walk around Old town, go one of the beach(?),Hoi An Memories, see lantern release.
Day4 (Monday) : Travel back to Danang, Marble Mountain, head to airport for flight back.

can visit Han Market is one of the city major traditional market

there's an entry fee to enter hoi an ancient town
u can buy the ticket at multiple entrance but there are loopholes but i suggest you don't explore that loophole because there are people going around to check your ticket...they don't look at it properly but they just make sure you have it

Found something interesting.

Every day 2pm got free bus from Danang City which is outside Novotel Hotel to Bến Du Thuyền Sông Hàn Đà Nẵng (Han River Cruise Ticket Office) road side parking got one Ba Na Hill Sunworld livery Bus.

9pm from Ba Na Hill back to Danang city.

One day only one bus roundtrip

Hi All the Sifu,

I am planning a trip to Danang for 10 pax, any private driver to recommend?

I'm planning to visit Hoi An and Da Nang late Febuary 2025. Just bought the flight tickets.

No itinerary is set in stone.

Hoi An - 2 Days 1 Night (Moire Hoi An, Vignette Collection)
Da Nang - 4 Days 3 Night (Hilton Da Nang)

Perhaps a day visit to Hue by train, followed by a return journey to Da Nang through the breathtaking Hai Van Pass on a motorcycle.

Get ready to stunned by Korean Language. Da Nang not Vietnam Town....Its a Korea Town. Korean Language everywhere.

my last visit to da nang, it's already vietnam town
many koreans migrated there and work/setup business there
da nang is not like HCM where only 1 area is korea town, it's basically the whole da nang

which is also why there is a huge lotte mart there

When was your last visit?

Been to Danang on April 2024. Kanasai, Beach is full of Korean....Ba Nang Hill is full of Korean.....Night Market is full of Korean.....Vietnam Vendor saw me first word are Annyeonghaseyo.....
Sienz.....

Go Hue...Suddenly all Korean missing....... Hoi An.....Korean Missing 50%
