From Da Nang Airport Straight to the Bay Mau Coconut Forest at Cam Thanh
This private car route from Da Nang International Airport (DAD) straight to the Bay Mau Coconut Forest eco-tourism area (Cam Thanh commune, Hoi An city) suits visitors who land in the morning or early afternoon and want to discover the miniature waterways of the delta beside Hoi An before going to their hotel. The distance is about 35 km and the drive takes only 45 to 55 minutes along an airy coastal road.
With a Sun Travel private car you do not have to drag heavy suitcases around looking for somewhere to leave them. The driver meets you at the arrivals hall, loads all your luggage safely into the boot, takes you straight to the Cam Thanh basket-boat landing and can wait while you enjoy the river before you continue to your accommodation.
A Relaxed Basket-Boat Experience Right After Your Flight
- Pickup timed to your landing: Give your flight number when you book. Dispatch compares it with your landing time when updated data is available, and the driver meets you at the arrivals hall (T1 or T2) with a name board. Waiting terms for an early or late flight are confirmed for your request.
- Luggage kept safely in the car: While you glide in a basket boat past green water-coconut palms, watch skilful basket-boat spinning and try throwing a fishing net (about 45 to 60 minutes), your suitcases and personal items stay with the driver in the locked car at the car park.
- A convenient link to your hotel afterwards: After the outing the driver takes you to check in at a hotel or homestay in Hoi An old town or a beach resort at An Bang (only another 10 to 15 minutes’ drive).
Choosing a Vehicle by Group and Family Size
- 4-seat car (a late-model sedan): Suits 2 to 3 passengers with two medium suitcases and a small backpack.
- 7-seat car (a high-clearance MPV or SUV such as an Xpander, Fortuner or Innova): The most popular choice for a family of 4 to 5; a roomy cabin, dual-zone air conditioning and space for 3 to 4 large suitcases plus children’s items.
- 16-seat van (Ford Transit, Hyundai Solati): Comfortable reclining seats and a roomy rear luggage area for friends, companies or large families of 7 to 14 on a river outing.
