The Private Car Journey from Hoi An Old Town to Tam Ky City
The road from central Hoi An or its beachside resorts to Tam Ky city is about 45 to 50 km. The drive by private car takes only about 50 to 60 minutes along the coastal Vo Chi Cong road (DT129).
The Hoi An – Tam Ky private car is a whole-vehicle door-to-door service: the car collects you at your hotel, homestay or villa in Hoi An and drops you at an office, school, hospital or private home in Tam Ky, in a quiet, courteous trip that keeps to the agreed time.
The Open, Gentle Vo Chi Cong Coastal Route
Road DT129 (Vo Chi Cong) runs straight from the Cua Dai Bridge south through Duy Xuyen and Thang Binh districts into Tam Ky city, and is one of the most attractive and open roads in Central Vietnam:
- A good road with few trucks: A smooth four-lane asphalt road away from congested arteries, so the trip is easy and free of carsickness.
- Open scenery: The road runs along coastal dunes and casuarina forest, giving passengers a relaxed feeling.
