The Private Car Journey from Da Nang to Lang Co Bay
The private car route from Da Nang city to Lang Co Bay (Lang Co town, Phu Loc district, Thua Thien Hue province) is about 35 to 40 km through the Hai Van road tunnel, or about 50 km if you choose the scenic road over the Hai Van Pass. The drive by private car takes only 45 to 50 minutes through the tunnel, or roughly 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes if you take the pass.
Sun Travel’s private car picks you up at the door of your hotel, the airport or your home in Da Nang and drops you at the lobby of a resort, hotel or seafood restaurant beside Lap An Lagoon in Lang Co. The trip is entirely private, with a courteous driver who knows the pass road and the mountain tunnel well.
Two Route Options: Through the Tunnel or over the Hai Van Pass
- Through the Hai Van road tunnel (the default in the price table): The fastest and safest route. The car goes straight through the tunnel of more than 6 km linking Lien Chieu District (Da Nang) with Lang Co town (Hue), which saves time, has modern ventilation and avoids carsickness. The price on the website lists the Hai Van tunnel BOT toll as included.
- Over the Hai Van Pass for the view (a separate request): A winding road along the mountainside with sweeping views of Da Nang Bay and the Son Tra Peninsula. At the top, the car can stop at the Hai Van Quan gate (the “Number One Gateway Under Heaven”) for 20 to 30 minutes so you can walk around, take photos and have a coffee among the clouds. (A request to take the pass must be given before booking so the surcharge and time can be confirmed.)
Flexible Drop-off Points in Lang Co
Sun Travel’s private car takes you to the place you ask for:
- Resorts and hotels: The reception lobbies of upscale beach resorts such as Laguna Lang Co (Angsana, Banyan Tree), Lang Co Beach Resort, Thanh Tam Resort or bay-side hotels.
- Lap An Lagoon: The well-known floating restaurants and fresh-seafood places beside the lagoon (grilled oysters with scallion oil, lagoon crab, grouper) for a lunch or dinner with mountains reflected in the calm water.
Choosing a Vehicle for the Trip
- 4-seat car (a sedan such as a Toyota Vios, Hyundai Accent or Cerato): Suits 1 to 3 passengers with two medium suitcases.
- 7-seat car (an MPV or SUV such as a Mitsubishi Xpander, Toyota Fortuner or Veloz): For a family of 4 to 5; the higher ride absorbs bumps well, helps limit carsickness on the pass and has a roomy luggage area.
- 16-seat van (Ford Transit, Hyundai Solati): Comfortable reclining seats and a tall, airy cabin for friends or company groups of 8 to 14 going for seafood or a weekend break.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the car go over the Hai Van Pass by default on the Lang Co route?
The base price table applies to the route through the Hai Van road tunnel to save time. If you want the scenic pass and a visit to Hai Van Quan, just tell us before booking so Sun Travel can confirm the route conditions.
Can the car drop me at the seafood places on Lap An Lagoon?
Yes. The driver is ready to take your group to the restaurants and floating houses beside Lap An Lagoon so you can enjoy seafood and watch the sunset before going to your hotel to check in.
Does the price apply to a same-day round trip?
The listed price is for one way. For a day trip to Lang Co with a swim and lunch and a return to Da Nang the same day, Sun Travel can quote a round-trip package with the driver waiting, priced after your itinerary is reviewed rather than by simply adding two single trips.
How long does it take from Da Nang to Lang Co, and do I have to buy a tunnel ticket?
The distance from central Da Nang to Lang Co town is about 35 km and the drive takes roughly 40 to 45 minutes through the Hai Van tunnel. Sun Travel’s listed price includes the full BOT toll for the Hai Van tunnel.
Will the car go into the lobby of Laguna Lang Co (Banyan Tree or Angsana)?
Yes. The private car takes you to the reception lobby of Laguna Lang Co, Banyan Tree, Angsana or the other beach resorts in Lang Co.
