A private car with a driver for business trips between Da Nang and Hue meets the need for accurate timing for delegations of staff, specialists and companies with inter-provincial meeting schedules within a single day.

Da Nang and Hue are linked by the Hai Van tunnel and the La Son – Tuy Loan expressway. Hiring a car with a dedicated driver keeps a two-way working trip tidy, saves time and keeps every member of the group fresh.

Distances and travel times between key economic centres

The road from central Da Nang to Hue is about 95 to 105 km, depending on the exact destination of the group:

  • To the Chan May – Lang Co Economic Zone: About 45 km, and the drive through the Hai Van tunnel takes only about 50 minutes. This is a common stop for seaport logistics firms and resort businesses.
  • To the Phu Bai Industrial Zone (Huong Thuy town): About 85 km, with a travel time of around 1 hour 30 minutes. The area is home to large textile, precision engineering and export-processing factories.
  • To the administrative centre of the former imperial capital (Hue University and government departments): About 95 to 100 km, with an average drive of about 2 hours 30 minutes on the smooth paved road.

Depending on how urgent the trip is, the driver will choose the Hai Van tunnel route to save time, or the La Son – Tuy Loan expressway, which connects directly to the west of Hue city.

Practical benefits for an inter-provincial business trip

Compared with a fixed-schedule train or coach, a private car offers several advantages:

  1. A same-day round trip: The delegation can leave Da Nang at 06:30, reach the partner’s office in Hue at 09:00 to start the working session, have lunch, continue in the afternoon and board the car back to Da Nang at 17:30.
  2. A secure working space in the car: The cabin is stable, fairly quiet and has dual-zone air conditioning. Staff can open a laptop to review reports, discuss negotiation strategy or make internal calls privately and with focus.
  3. Flexible pick-up and drop-off at several points: The car collects members from several addresses across Da Nang before departure, and can visit several branches or partners in Hue without wasting time changing vehicles or waiting for a shuttle.

A fleet sized for each business group

Sun Travel runs well-maintained vehicles for every group size:

1. 4-seat sedan (for one or two staff members)

Models such as the Toyota Camry, Mazda 6 or the VinFast VF 8 electric car give a polished, elegant impression. The boot takes two carry-on suitcases and a document case with ease, which suits a leader attending a specialist conference or signing a commercial contract.

2. 7-seat SUV or MPV (for groups of three to five people)

High-clearance models such as the Toyota Fortuner, Mitsubishi Xpander or Ford Everest offer roomy seating, a clear view of the road and stable suspension. They suit teams of engineers going to inspect a project at Chan May or a factory at Phu Bai.

3. Premium 16-seat (for groups of six to twelve people)

The Ford Transit and Hyundai Solati have comfortable reclining leather seats and a large rear luggage area that holds the suitcases and product samples of a full business group.

Coordination and support for a well-organised trip

To make sure the business trip runs as efficiently as possible, the coordination process follows clear steps:

  • Receiving the list and optimising the route: The dispatch team receives the list of working venues in Hue and suggests a sensible order of stops based on geography, so the group does not have to double back.
  • Experienced long-distance drivers: Sun Travel drivers handle mountain passes, know the Hai Van tunnel well and know the streets in Hue that have time-based traffic restrictions. They pick up and drop off at the office lobby.
  • Trip paperwork: A trip confirmation is provided on request.
