Let’s explore the detailed itinerary in this article!

Why You Should Travel to Da Nang for 5 Days and 4 Nights?

If you only have 2-3 days, you may find it difficult to explore all the wonderful things Da Nang has to offer. Therefore, a 5-day 4-night trip is the ideal time for you to visit the top attractions while still having time for relaxation.

During this journey, you will enjoy the beauty of My Khe Beach, conquer Ba Na Hills, stroll through Hoi An Ancient Town, and explore the ancient My Son Sanctuary. This itinerary is perfect for families, couples, or groups of friends looking for a complete holiday experience. The estimated cost ranges from 6 – 8 million VND (≈$250 – $333) per person, depending on your choice of hotel and transportation to Da Nang.

Best Time to Visit Da Nang

The best time to visit Da Nang is from February to May and September, when the weather is cool and there is little rain. If you enjoy a bustling atmosphere and are willing to pay higher prices, the peak season from June to August is also worth considering.

However, it’s recommended to book flights and hotels early to avoid fully booked rooms or high prices. Conversely, October to December is not a good time to visit because Da Nang enters the rainy season, which may affect your travel plans.

How to Get to Da Nang

There are several ways to reach Da Nang, depending on your budget and the time available:

• By Air: This is the fastest and most convenient option. Da Nang International Airport has direct flights from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and many other major cities. Flight time is about 1.5 hours, with round-trip ticket prices ranging from 1,300,000 – 3,000,000 VND (≈$54.17 – $125) per person.
• By Train: If you want to experience a scenic journey, taking the train is a great option. The travel time is 15 – 17 hours, with ticket prices ranging from 600,000 – 1,100,000 VND (≈$25 – $45.83) one-way.
• By Bus: This is a cost-effective option but takes quite a bit of time. Traveling from Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City takes about 16 – 20 hours, with ticket prices ranging from 600,000 – 1,100,000 VND (≈$25 – $45.83) one-way.

Getting Around Da Nang

Once you arrive in Da Nang, you can rent a motorbike for about 120,000 – 200,000 VND/day (≈$5 – $8.33) for flexibility, or take a taxi or Grab if you prefer not to drive. Additionally, public buses are a more affordable option but less flexible.
