Departure was 1 hr late. Also they drop us off in Hui (90 km far from Da Nang ) and driver was telling that another bus will come in 10 min . But we waited in total 2 hr from 6am till 8 am . Which we suppose to arrive to Da Nang at 8:30 as per schedule So we were forced to order taxi, otherwise we won’t have enough time for our planed activity

Bus was quite new and very cosy, but unfortunately drivers were not helping at all to get rest with honking, hard breaking, speaking on the mobile almost half of the night, or ignoring his alarm which was ringing for 1,5h in the middle of the night.

I hadn't had any experience in traveling on this sort of bus before however it was memorable. We had to be borded near Opera house but it was in renovation and there were no room around to find a parking lot for bus. So, the company called a taxi to get us on a new bording place. In case of that we were late but not for too much. Staff was polite and helpful by the way. Bus's clean and comfortable.

We booked a Premium 1st class sleeper cabin for my wife and myself so that we could have our own private space, bit rustic and not as nice a carriage as the others or in the adverts. Good box for breakfast and drinks in carriage. No food to buy, bring snacks. Journey fun and lovely views in last few hours in daylight. Would do again but would hope for a better quality cabin for the price.

Tipping taxi drivers in Da Nang is not a common practice, but it is appreciated. Most fares include the cost of the ride, and drivers don’t expect additional tips. However, rounding up to the nearest 10,000 VND or leaving small change is seen as courteous, especially for good service. Some taxi companies, such as Mai Linh or Vinasun, have consistent pricing and reliable drivers. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with heavy luggage or efficient route navigation, a modest tip is a kind gesture. Keep in mind that cash is preferred since digital tipping options may not be available.

Standard tipping: Rounding up the fare.
Cash tips are most appreciated.
Helpful for exceptional service but not required.

Offering a tip is entirely at your discretion but shows gratitude in a way drivers understand.

The decision depends on lifestyle preferences, work, and climate. Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, offers rich history, cultural landmarks, and a larger urban economy, making it ideal for career opportunities and experiencing northern traditions. However, its traffic congestion and cooler winters may deter some. Da Nang, a coastal city, provides a more relaxed lifestyle with clean beaches, modern infrastructure, and a warmer, tropical climate. It’s popular among expats seeking a balance between work and leisure, especially with its proximity to UNESCO sites like Hoi An and My Son.

Hanoi: Capital, cultural hub, cooler climate.
Da Nang: Coastal, relaxed, warmer weather.
Key factors: career, climate, lifestyle.

Both cities offer distinct advantages, so evaluate personal priorities when choosing.

Closing times in Da Nang vary by business type. Restaurants and coffee shops generally close around 9 PM to 10 PM, though some street food vendors may stay open later. Shopping malls like Vincom Plaza usually close by 9:30 PM. Bars and nightclubs in the My Khe Beach area often stay open until midnight or later, depending on demand. For tourist attractions, such as the Marble Mountains or the Dragon Bridge, visits typically end by 6 PM or after the evening light shows.

Restaurants: Close by 9–10 PM.
Malls: Typically close around 9:30 PM.
Bars/clubs: Midnight or later.

Plan activities accordingly to maximize your time and consider confirming hours for specific venues to avoid inconvenience.
