Da Nang to Hue Scenic RouteHai Van Pass by Private Car
You have to get between Da Nang and Hue anyway. Instead of the tunnel, take the mountain road: coffee with a view at the top, the lagoon at Lap An and lunch by the water in Lang Co. Your luggage rides with you, hotel to hotel.

Questions before you book
Something else on your mind? Ask us. A local lead answers within 24 hours.
Ask on WhatsAppIs the Hai Van Pass road OK for kids who get car sick?
The pass road is winding. We drive slowly, stop often and bring motion-sickness bags just in case. Sitting near the front and looking out at the sea helps.
Do we need a guide?
Not really. Your driver knows the stops and handles everything. If you would like stories along the way, add an English-speaking guide for $50 for the day.
What happens to our luggage?
It stays in your private car from your Da Nang hotel to your Hue hotel, so you travel light at every stop.
Can we start from Hoi An?
Yes. Pick-up from Hoi An adds $12 for the family and about 30 minutes to the drive.
