Private Car from Hoi An to Ba Na Hills: One Way or a Day Programme
The starting point changes the whole day; settle the return early, because the listed price is one way.
Table of Contents (3 sections)
From Hoi An to Ba Na Hills is about 55 km and 1.2 hours one way; from Da Nang it is only about 35 km and 45 minutes, and from Da Nang Airport about 35 km and 50 minutes. So the starting point changes the whole day, and what to settle early is the return: the route price is one way, so the trip back down, waiting time and extra stops we quote separately. Here is how to choose a programme and what to send.
Starting rates only. Sun Travel checks the pickup and drop-off points, itinerary and departure time before confirming the trip. Fuel, road tolls and parking are included in the listed route rate. Waiting at pickup is free for 30 minutes; waiting beyond 1 hour adds US$4. Extra stops need separate confirmation. This is the one-way rate for Hoi An to Ba Na Hills. Da Nang and the airport have their own rate items, and there are multi-stop day programmes. It includes fuel, tolls and parking or gate fees. The return leg, waiting time and extra stops are quoted and confirmed separately.
One way or a day programme
- One way: the car takes you up to Ba Na; you arrange the way down yourself or book it separately. See the private car from Hoi An to Ba Na Hills.
- A full-day programme (8:00 to 18:00 in the listed rate): the table has Hoi An, Ba Na Hills and Da Nang items and Da Nang, Ba Na Hills and Hoi An items; see the Hoi An to Ba Na Hills day tour returning to Da Nang. It suits you when the pickup and drop-off points differ.
- Adding a stop: stopping at the Marble Mountains on the way adds time and needs to be counted in the plan.
What to know about the destination
the Golden Bridge opened in June 2018 and is about 150 m long at about 1,414 m above sea level. Operating hours, ticket prices and the cable car schedule are published by the operator and change, so check its channel on the day. Weather on the mountain can differ from the lowlands, so look at the forecast for the Ba Na area rather than Da Nang. If the Golden Bridge is your interest, see the Golden Bridge tips.
Day trip timing to send for Hoi An to Ba Na booking
- The pickup point in Hoi An or Da Nang (the car can drive through the gates of hotels and resorts to pick up and drop off), the time you want to leave and the final drop-off.
- The number of passengers, whether young children and a stroller are travelling, and a 4, 7 or 16-seat vehicle.
- The time you expect to come down, so dispatch can confirm waiting time or a return pickup time.
