Last 2 week I bought the open bus ticket.. From. HCM, mui Ne, nha trang, hoi an,  danang, Hue and Hanoi..

For me.. Most nice place to visit is mui Ne ( desert)  and nha trang (4 island tour and nice beach to hang out)

Hoi an is a old town like penang..

HCM, Hue and Hanoi for me is quite traffic congestion.. I not really like it..

Now I at Laos.. Luang prabang..

I did not notice that whether have bus from danang to si phan Don..

Last time I at Cambodia Siam Reap / phnom phen.. There have bus to there.. But quite expensive

Anyway.. From hoi an to danang or vise versa only 30km...

I advice you fly to HCM.. Take bus to Mui Ne, nha trang,  hoi an and da nang.. Which is more worth

a bit offtopic, but i'll be headed to sapa end of Feb. What clothing should I bring? Will be going for the trekking tours too. Jeans / shorts, or track pants for trekking?
*
The trekking path there quite muddy, so bring along any worn-out clothes, just wear and throw if dirty.
Can rent rubber boots there also, if you wear nice shoes there, confirm no need bring back d

You're going during Tet? Not really a good time if you want to travel on a budget. It's their major holiday there, many shops will be closed, prices will be 2-3x more expensive, and accommodation will be fully booked that time also. Better book everything in advance before going

Hi, any suggested 5-6 days itinery for Danang? Must visit places?
And how to go around, have grab/uber ?
Thanks
*
Can suggest my itinerary, wanted to write about it on my blog but no time really cry.gif

D1 - Danang - Hoi An
Arrive by flight, transport straight from airport to Hoi An. Overnight in Hoi An. Spend the evening in Hoi An ancient town, try all the food there. Try the com ga, cao lau and banh mi

D2 - Hoi An
Guess you can do a day trip to My Son sanctuary, but to me it's not worth it. Otherwise, just spend time in An Bang beach

D3 - Hoi An - Hue
Take a bus from Hoi An to Hue. Better to get private transport so you can stop at all the scenic spots along Hai Van pass and Lang Co bay. Overnight in Hue. Can spend your evening at Nguyen Dinh Chieu walking street, plenty of food there. Try the food there, Hue is quite famous for che hue, bun bo, com hen

D4 - Hue
Can visit Imperial City and royal tombs. Get the combo ticket, I think its 280k for imperial city + tomb of minh mang + tomb of khai dinh. Some places you can see for free like Thien Mu pagoda and Thanh Hoa roofed bridge

D5 - Hue - Danang
Travel back to Danang. Overnight here. Can spend time at the beach, spend evening at Bach Dang street. Try the quang mi

D6 - Danang
Day trip to Son Tra peninsula. If have time, maybe can visit Ban Co peak

hi guys is it sufficient to visit danang + hue in 3 days?think to spend 2 days in vue and 1 night in danang.
From Hue to Danang can take Hai Van pass?
*
If you don't have much time, hue can be done as a day trip from da nang. You can comfortably see tomb of khai dinh, minh mang, thien mu pagoda and imperial city in a day
