The Private Car Journey from Da Nang Airport to Hoi An
The private car route from Da Nang International Airport (DAD) to Hoi An covers about 30 km and usually takes 45 to 50 minutes. After a long flight, it saves you and your family from queueing for a taxi and takes you straight to the lobby of your hotel or resort in Hoi An.
The price shown on the website is the base price from the route price table and includes fuel, road tolls and the airport entry fee. Waiting time and any request outside the route count as included only when the trip confirmation says so.
How Airport Pickup Works at Da Nang Airport
To keep pickups quick and simple, Sun Travel follows a set process at both terminals:
- Domestic terminal (T1): After collecting checked luggage on the ground floor, walk out of the main arrivals hall. Your Sun Travel driver will contact you by phone, Zalo or WhatsApp to give you the pickup pillar number (pillars 1 to 5 in the private-car lane opposite) and bring the car to you within 2 to 3 minutes.
- International terminal (T2): For passengers arriving from Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and other countries, the driver or a Sun Travel coordinator waits at the arrivals exit with a name board showing the group leader’s name and helps move luggage to the private-car lane.
- Sending your flight information: A flight number lets dispatch match your landing time when updated data is available. If the flight is late, the pickup time and waiting policy need to be confirmed again; nothing is assumed to move automatically or to be free of charge.
The Route from the Airport to Hoi An
From Da Nang Airport the car follows a quick connecting route:
- Leave the airport via Duy Tan Street and the Tran Thi Ly Bridge or the Dragon Bridge.
- Join the coastal boulevard of Vo Nguyen Giap – Truong Sa – Lac Long Quan, which runs past attractive beaches and is wide, smooth and has few red lights.
- Turn onto Hai Ba Trung Street (past An Bang Beach) or Cua Dai Road to reach the centre of Hoi An old town.
If you would like to stop for photos or visit the Marble Mountains along the way, note it when you book so Sun Travel can plan the time.
Drop-off Points in the Old Town and at Hoi An Resorts
In Hoi An, the Sun Travel car takes you to your accommodation:
- Beachside resorts and hotels (An Bang, Cua Dai, Nam Hoi An): The car drops you at the reception lobby.
- Central and old-town fringe areas: Drop-off at the door of your hotel, homestay or villa.
- The pedestrian core (cars restricted at set hours): During the restricted hours (09:00 – 11:00 and 15:00 – 21:30) the driver parks at the nearest licensed car park (such as the Hoai River Square car park at 01 Cao Hong Lanh or the car park at 332 Ly Thuong Kiet), helps carry your luggage and shows you the way to the hotel.
Choosing a Vehicle Size by Passengers and Luggage
- 4-seat sedan (Toyota Vios, Hyundai Accent or the electric VinFast VF5): Suits 1 to 3 passengers with two medium (24-inch) suitcases and a small bag.
- 7-seat MPV or SUV (Mitsubishi Xpander, Toyota Innova or the electric VinFast VF e34): Roomy for a family of 4 to 5 with 3 to 4 checked suitcases.
- 16-seat van (Ford Transit, Hyundai Solati): A large luggage area and a high, airy ceiling, suited to groups of 8 to 14 with a lot of luggage.
The base price table applies by seat capacity (4, 7 or 16 seats), which keeps pricing transparent and precise.

Frequently Asked Questions
If my flight is delayed, will the driver wait, and is there an extra charge?
Send your flight number and message again once you have collected your luggage. How a delayed flight is handled, the meeting point and the waiting time are settled in the confirmation; a fixed waiting period of one to three hours is not assumed.
Does the displayed price already include the airport entry ticket?
Yes, it is included. The Sun Travel driver pays the barrier ticket for the pickup entrance, so you pay nothing extra for it.
Is a child car seat available?
Sun Travel can arrange a child safety seat (baby seat) on request. Tell us before booking so the operations team can prepare it before the pickup time.
Where exactly does the driver meet me at the domestic T1 and international T2 terminals?
At the domestic terminal (T1) the driver contacts you and meets you at pillars 1 to 5, opposite the exit of the ground-floor arrivals hall. At the international terminal (T2) the driver waits in the international arrivals hall with a name board so you can recognise them as soon as you have your luggage.
We are 4 adults with 4 large suitcases. Should we book a 4-seat or 7-seat car?
Choose a 7-seat car (such as an Xpander, Veloz or Fortuner). Although a 4-seat car has enough seats, its boot holds at most two 24-inch suitcases, while a 7-seat car has enough luggage room for four large suitcases without crowding the seats.
